Hi there! :D

I actually started a reread project of HP a while back wherein I read the books specifically looking at Slytherins and how they were portrayed through two methods: 1) how other characters spoke about them and 2) how they acted in the narrative itself.

I managed to get through half of PoA before life forced me to stop, but at least that far, I did find that most of the adult characters--except Hagrid, of course--are very neutral about Slytherins. It's the kids who usually promote the idea that Slytherins are bad because reasons. However, when it comes to how the Slytherins act, there's very little to suggest that they aren't all snot-nosed little brats. The way they act would make anyone believe them to be evil-in-training.

I have to wonder if the majority of adults are very careful to try not to influence Harry, and thus choose their words carefully around him. Because their children tend to be less discerning, and those children had to learn those prejudices from somewhere. They weren't born with them.

I really need to finish this project, because I want to really pay attention to how we end up with this "All Slytherins are evil or cowards... or Snape" conclusion we seem to get in DH.

this sounds like a very interesting project!

when/if you do complete it, would you mind letting us know here? I'd like to read it!
