| Περίληψη: | The world continues to change and germinate, and houses various powers that govern human life and behaviour; children's literature power is one among them. Children's
literature means the literature about children, which is written for children and young adults who are the targeted audience and readers. It is an umbrella term that encompasses various
literary elements with different definitions, different sub genres that differentiate it from other genres of literatures on the level of forms and contents and plays a crucial role in
achieving and fulfilling children's educational as well as social objectives. The power and influence of children's literature can be analysed and justified in social, cultural, moral, ethical, traditional, and educational context. Children's literature – like any other form of literature – is always closely connected to the socio-historical conditions under which it is written. It is highly didactic and moralistic. It has empowered its readers to explore its existence, history, relations, values, and paves their way in future. It transcends boundaries of religion, geography, race and gender, challenges limitations and reader's constricted horizons, and enables children's to connect and open out to the world and to become restless, curious, and questioning. Children's literature books comprise fantasy, fairytales, magic, science fiction, history as indispensible constituents. Fantasy provides moral and spiritual guidance to children. J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter series, steeped in fantasy, has created a sensation in the literary world. It represents a power position taken in the field of children's
literature by encapsulating its genre and emerged as an educating and gratifying work to its readers. The Harry Potter series can be utilized to assist children in gaining values and
moral inputs that will aid them in their personal development and to help them become useful contributors to their modern world. This study aims to illustrate the power and role of
children's literature in its readers along with Harry Potter series. |
