Harry Potter and the Cursed Child

Book review

Introduction

The story begins nineteen years after the events of the 2007 novel Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows and follows Harry Potter, now Head of the at the Department of Magical Law Enforcement at the Ministry of Magic, and his younger son Albus Severus Potter, who is about to attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. 

Development

The book begins at King's Cross Station, with Harry's and Hermione’s respective children Albus Potter and Rose Granger Weasley going off to Hogwarts for the first time. Albus is afraid he will break the family tradition and be sorted into Slytherin rather than Gryffindor. On the Hogwarts Express, Albus makes friends with Scorpius Malfoy, the son of Draco Malfoy. Scorpius is sorted into Slytherin, then in a complete surprise Albus Potter is sorted into Slytherin. Rose is sorted into Gryffindor and becomes popular as Albus shows no particular magical aptitude, thus widening the distance between her and her cousin Albus. Scorpius and Albus are friends, but rumors about Scorpius's birth cause him to be an outcast.

Draco Malfoy is tormented by rumors that Voldemort used a Time-Turner to impregnate his wife Astoria to give birth to Scorpius. He asks Harry Potter for a statement that all Time-Turners have all been destroyed. Harry is then visited by Amos Diggory and his niece Delphi, who each want Harry to go back in time to the Triwizard tournament and save his son, Cedric, since he was an innocent victim of Lord Voldemort. Over a holiday, Harry arrives to give Albus a present: his own baby blanket. The gesture feels empty that it wasn’t his son. Albus leaves to go back to Hogwarts and Harry’s scar begins to hurt for the first time in nineteen years.

Albus and Scorpius offer to help Amos and Delphi Diggory by using the Time-Turner to go back in time to stop Cedric’s death by saving him from winning the Triwizard Tournament. They use Poly juice Potion to steal a Time-Turner from the Ministry of Magic and sabotage Cedric in the first round of the Tri-wizard tournament. Harry and Draco discover Albus and Scorpius outside Hogwarts when they are transported back to the present, as the Time-Turner has a five-minute limit. After being warned of a "dark cloud" around his son by the centaur Bane, Harry tells Albus to keep away from Scorpius.

They travel around time to time until they stop at an unknown period. Albus and Scorpius discover that they have been transported to the day that Harry’s parents died. Delphi aims to stop Voldemort from attempting to kill Harry in the first place, so that when he kills Harry, the curse will not be rebounded. Albus and Scorpius send a message to Harry in the present through the baby blanket that Harry gave to Albus with the date and time they are at. Draco has indeed concealed a Time-Turner, and Harry, Ginny, Draco, Ron, and Hermione travel in time to the date: Halloween Eve, 1981. When they arrive Harry transforms into Voldemort to lure Delphi. Delphi explains to him that she is the child of an affair between Voldemort and Bellatrix Lestrange. The transfiguration begins to fade and Delphi realizes it's Voldemort arriving to kill Harry’s parents and realize they cannot intervene or risk changing the future. Harry, not Voldemort. They duel, and Albus helps his father to beat Delphi. They then hear the real Harry watches his parents being murdered.

Conclusion

In the present, Scorpius asks out Rose Granger-Weasley who declines, but give him hope for the future. Harry pledges to be a better father and explains that Dumbledore and Snape were great, but flawed men, and he must not feel obligated to live up to their accomplishments. Both Harry and Albus are filled with hope for their relationship.

Social Media VS. Mass Media

Social Media is a technology that facilitates the sharing of information, thoughts, and ideas through the various networks between people. Social media is a mode of communication which create a link between people. In present time most of the people on social media platforms.

While, Mass media is communication—whether written, broadcast, or spoken—that reaches a large audience. This includes television, radio, advertising, movies, the Internet, newspapers, magazines, and so forth. Mass media is a significant force in modern culture, particularly in America.

The major difference between mass media and social media is this; the mass media puts the audience in a passive position. Social media puts the audience at the center. ... Even brands are on social media, they organised social media marketing campaigns and interact with their existing or potential customers.

But what do you think is more useful today as if in every places are in a different situations and event like we had to choose either of this two like we wanted to know more information about the updates and the uses of technology to our life.
