Re: Interpretations on Canon that you just don't get
(Anonymous) 2015-09-22 12:17 am (UTC)(link)But given that Lily stays on her pedestal and that Harry also seems to build one for Ginny, that combined with similarities in their appearances can't help but to have me be reminded of Lily whenever Harry talks about Ginny.
I do think Ginny is an odd character though -- she seems to have been created specifically as a reward for Harry. The only girl in the Weasley family so that Harry could officially become part of their family. And she's beautiful, intelligent, spunky, great at Quidditch, etc.
I just miss Book 5 Ginny. A lot of people found the transition jarring but I liked it. Ginny had grown up but hadn't been put on the pedestal yet.
Re: Interpretations on Canon that you just don't get
(Anonymous) 2015-09-22 12:23 am (UTC)(link)I can understand why you'd find Ginny's treatment in the narrative reminiscent of Lily's (they are both definitely idealized characters), but nothing will convince me that any similarities between the two of them are sufficient evidence to claim that Harry canonically has an Oedipus complex.
I do agree that Book 5 Ginny is the best Ginny, though!
