In an 8 November 2002 Slate article, Chris Suellentrop likened Potter to a "trust-fund kid whose success at school is largely attributable to the gifts his friends and relatives lavish upon him". [123] In a 12 August 2007, review of Deathly Hallows in The New York Times, however, Christopher Hitchens praised Rowling for "unmooring" her "English school story" from literary precedents "bound up with dreams of wealth and class and snobbery", arguing that she had instead created "a world of youthful democracy and diversity". [124] Harry Potter transformed children's literature. [165] [166] In the 1970s, children's books were generally realistic as opposed to fantastic, [167] while adult fantasy became popular because of the influence of The Lord of the Rings. [168] The next decade saw an increasing interest in grim, realist themes, with an outflow of fantasy readers and writers to adult works.

Like C. S. Lewis's The Chronicles of Narnia, Harry Potter also contains Christian symbolism and allegory. The series has been viewed as a Christian moral fable in the psychomachia tradition, in which stand-ins for good and evil fight for supremacy over a person's soul. [26] Children's literature critic Joy Farmer sees parallels between Harry and Jesus Christ. [27] Comparing Rowling with Lewis, she argues that "magic is both authors' way of talking about spiritual reality". [28] According to Maria Nikolajeva, Christian imagery is particularly strong in the final scenes of the series: Harry dies in self-sacrifice and Voldemort delivers an " ecce homo" speech, after which Harry is resurrected and defeats his enemy.

Research by the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) has found no increase in reading among children coinciding with the Harry Potter publishing phenomenon, nor has the broader downward trend in reading among Americans been arrested during the rise in the popularity of the Harry Potter books. [190] [191] The research also found that children who read Harry Potter books were not more likely to go on to read outside the fantasy and mystery genres. [190] NEA chairman Dana Gioia said the series, "got millions of kids to read a long and reasonably complex series of books. The trouble is that one Harry Potter novel every few years is not enough to reverse the decline in reading." [192] Many fan fiction and fan art works about Harry Potter have been made. In March 2007, "Harry Potter" was the most commonly searched fan fiction subject on the internet. [193] Espinoza, Javier (16 December 2015).
