Musings on Hermione’s Time Turner


In Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Hermione Granger decides to step up her class work, just a little. Okay, it wasn’t just a little, it was a lot. She literally doubled, possibly even tripled, her class work for that year.

At one point in the book, Harry and Ron are looking at her class schedule and they notice that she has three classes scheduled for the nine o’clock hour. At the time, Hermione brushes their wonderment off, but later in the book we discover that Hermione has been allowed to make use of a very dangerous artifact called a Time Turner.

The name Time Turner must have come from the fact that you literally turn the hourglass inside the necklace in order to go back in time. A single turn of the hourglass on the Time Turner necklace will send you 1 hour back in time. Two turns will send you two hours back and so on.

Because a turn of a the hourglass will only send you back a mere hour, one can understand that the Time Turner necklace, while dangerous, is not as dangerous as it could be. Let’s face it, if you wanted to go back a simple 1 year in time you would need to turn the hourglass 8760 times. That’s a lot of turning. Conceivable, certainly, but the more time you want to go back, the less likely someone would be able to do it.

We do know that a time turner is something that the Ministry of Magic finds to be worthy of being controlled. Hermione states that Professor McGonagall had to write several letters in order for Hermione to be allowed to use one. But in light of the fact that Hermione was 14 or 15 years old at the time would indicate that it is no more dangerous than our Muggle society would view a car. Dangerous if abused but somewhat common if a young teenager would be allowed to keep it without direct supervision.

What I find more interesting is the idea that Professor McGonagall allowed Hermione Granger to have one at all. Granted, while the overall effects would not be deemed too dangerous, the emotional effects of such a device on a girl like Hermione would have been self-evident to a woman like Professor McGonagall.

Hermione is a driven and frantic young woman. She is constantly in fear of failure and in order to make up for this she sets goals for which anyone is almost certain to fail at. Hermione does achieve these goals mostly but only by learning that a person cannot master everything. When Hermione storms out of Professor Trelawney’s class, we realize that Hermione Granger has learned that there are some things worth spending time on, and there are others that are just a waste of time, no matter how much time you are given.

In the end, Hermione also learns that using a Time Turner is just not the answer to her problem. Having more time to get things done is not the solution. The solution is earning what is important enough to get done in the time you have. Even with additional time, you are still faced with the emotional damage that comes with doing “too much”.

Could it be, that Professor McGonagall, in her more aged experience knew that the only way Hermione would learn this lesson was through the school of Hard Knocks? By the end of the semester, Hermione Granger is an emotional wreck and learns her lesson. Had she not gone through that eye-opening experience, she probably would not have believed anything that she was told. Hermione, for all of her commendable traits, is a stubborn know-it-all. Sometimes the solution for this type of flaw is a good old fashion fall on your face experience.

Yes, I know. You could just say that Hermione’s use of the Time Turner to attend extra classes was just a plot device used by J.K. Rowling to achieve the end result of the book, but I like to think that certain lessons and ideas, whether called upon by the author or not, tend to leak out in a writer’s work.

Perhaps J.K. Rowling either suffers from or sees frequently in other women this same issue. In trying to balance far too many things (work, home, kids, social life) and wishing that we had more time to handle it all when in fact we must come to terms with the fact that we need less things to worry about, not more time in which to worry about them. A Time Turner is not the solution.

What is Hermione Granger’s wand made of?


One question that many Hermione Granger fans have is about her wand. In the books, we are there while Harry Potter buys his wand, but we do not meet Hermione Granger until Hermione is on her way to Hogwarts and therefore already has her wand.

Hermione’s wand, like Harry’s and Ron’s was bought at Ollivander’s Wand Shop. Ollivander is widely regarded in the wizarding world to make the best wands available. Ollivander used only three types of cores in the wands that he makes. These three cores are Dragon Heartstring, Phoenix Feather and Unicorn Hair.

Hermione Granger’s Wand has a core that is made of Dragon Heartstring.

An interesting side note is that Harry, Ron and Hermione’s wands contain the three different types of cores. Harry’s wand contains the core of Phoenix Feather. Ron’s contains a core of Unicorn Hair. And, as just mentioned, Hermione’s contains the core of Dragon Heartstring.

The wood of Hermione’s wand was chosen by J.K. Rowling based on Hermione’s birthday and the Celtic calendar, which has a different type of tree or wood for each month. Hermione’s birthday is September 19, which falls during the moon of Muin. Muin is vine wood.

So, the wood Hermione Granger’s wand is made of is vine wood.

As is frequently stated in the Harry Potter series, people do not choose their wands, but rather their wands choose them. Everyone who has either read the Harry Potter books or seen the Harry Potter movies will remember the very funny scene in which Harry Potter tries out several wands in Ollivander’s shop with disastrous effects before finding “his” wand. It is therefore not too much of a stretch of thought to understand that their must be something about the wand that makes it a good fit for its owner.

With Harry, his wand had a core of Phoenix Feather. This is a fitting core for him since he should have died as a baby and did not. So much like the legendary phoenix, he rose from the ashes very much alive.

Hermione’s wand has a core of Dragon Heartstring. Perhaps this is because of her steadfast and brave heart. Hermione Granger takes on some of the toughest and most lost causes (such as S.P.E.W.) and yet never lets it phase her.

The wood is also fitting for this as vines tend to wrap themselves up in something and never let go, which is what Hermione does with her unwavering loyalty.

Hermione Granger’s cat – Crookshanks


It is something of note that each of the main three characters in the Harry Potter series has a pet. What is even more unusual is that they are allowed to have their pets at school. Hogwarts rules state that students are allowed to have a pet at Hogwarts as long as it is an owl, a rat, a frog or a cat.

Harry has his pet owl Hedwig. Ron first has Scabbers the rat and later Pigwidgeon the owl. And Hermione has Crookshanks the cat.

Crookshanks is part everyday cat and part kneazle. The fact that Crookshanks is part kneazle has not been revealed in any of the Harry Potter books but has been confirmed by J.K. Rowling in quite a few interviews and on the official Harry Potter website.

Crookshanks is described as a fluffy, ginger orange cat with a flat face and a bushy tail. J.K. Rowling has said that Hermione’s cat was inspired by a real live cat that she would frequently see in the square where she took her lunch while writing the Harry Potter books. Though she never got near enough to touch the cat (she has an allergy to them) she thought that the cat would make a good companion for Hermione.

Crookshanks is, like most cats, of an independent spirit. Because of his part kneazle heritage, he also has an above average intelligence. He is also keenly aware of anyone who is using deception and will react coolly, at the least, and violently, at the most, to any acts of deception that he sees.

Hermione bought Crookshanks from Magical Menagerie while buying school supplies Diagon Alley near the beginning of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. It is unknown if Hermione is aware of Crookshanks’ kneazle background. No one was with Hermione when she bought the cat and as Hermione has not mentioned it, it is unknown what conversation transpired during the purchase of the cat. Hermone only mentions that Crookshanks had been in the shop for a long time. I would have to guess that Hermione is probably unaware of Crookshanks background.

Crookshanks reflects many of the traits that are noble in Hermione. He is intelligent, fiercely loyal to those he loves, frowns upon cheating and once he has decided that he is right about something, nothing in the world will get him to change his mind and with good reason, because he is normally right.

He also has some of Hermione’s negative characteristics. These include his bushy appearance, his stubbornness, his occasionally off turning personality and, again, the fact that when he makes up his mind that he is right, he normally is.

While I think it is lots of fun that Hermione and her friends all have pets at school, I do often wonder how certain things are taken care of. For example, where exactly is Crookshanks’ litter box and does Hogwarts provide the food for the pets or do the students have to have it delivered by owl?

Instructions on how to get an autograph or autographed picture of Emma Watson as Hermione Granger


Instructions on how to get an autograph or autographed picture from Emma Watson or other Harry Potter actors and actresses

Getting an autograph or autographed picture of Emma Watson or any of your other favorite Harry Potter characters or actors and actresses is as easy as sending a letter as long as you do it correctly. Here is what you need to do.

First, make sure that your letter is polite and that you request an autograph or autographed picture near the top of your letter. In your letter, do not ask for Emma Watson’s (or other actor’s/actress’s) personal information, if she will marry/date you or if she can write you personally. She is very busy making Harry Potter movies and she gets literally thousands of letters a week. She would love to answer all her mail, but if she did, she would not have the time to be Hermione Granger in all of the movies.

Second, include a Self Addressed Stamped Envelope with your letter. This is an envelope that has your address on it with enough postage on it to be able to be mailed back to you. If you decide to send your fan letter outside the country where you live, you will need to include a International Postal Reply Coupon and a self-addressed envelope. The International Postal Reply Coupon will be used as the postage. You local post office can help you get one of these.

Third, if you are requesting an autographed picture, makes sure your Self Addressed Stamped Envelope is big enough. You may get a small picture, but you may get an 8×10 picture. Make sure that your envelope is big enough to put an 8×10 in, if you are lucky enough to get one. Wouldn’t you hate it if you were chosen to get a big picture and they couldn’t send it because you sent a small envelope? An envelope that will fit an 8×10 picture will be big enough.

Quotes about Hermione Granger from Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets


Quotes from Hermione Granger

“A deathday party?” said Hermione keenly … “I bet there aren’t too many living people who can say they’ve been to one of those — it’ll be fascinating!”

Hermione’s response to being invited to Nearly Headless Nick’s Deathday party

All the copies of Hogwarts, A History have been taken out” she said sitting down next to Harry and Ron. “And there’s a two-week waiting list. I wish I hadn’t left my copy at home, but I couldn’t fit it in my trunk with all the Lockhart books.”

Hermione after she has been to the library to find out more about The Chamber of Secrets

“There might be a way,” said Hermione slowly, dropping her voice still further with a quick glance across the room at Percy. “Of course, it will be difficult. And dangerous, very dangerous. We’d be breaking about fifty school rules, I expect –”

Hermione when she first comes up with the idea to make the Polyjuice potion to help them spy on Draco Malfoy

“Er — Professor Lockhart?” Hermione stammered. “I wanted to — to get this book out of the library. Just for background reading.” She held out the piece of paper, her hand was shaking slightly. “But the thing is, it’s in the Restricted Section of the library, so I need a teacher to sign for it — I’m sure it would help me understand what you say in Gadding with Ghouls about slow-acting venoms–”

Hermione when she is trying to get Gilderoy Lockhart to sign for the book with the Polyjuice Potion spell

“Well, if you two are going to chicken out, fine,” she said. There were bright pink patches on her cheeks and her eyes were brighter than usual. “I don’t want to break rules, you know. I think threatening Muggle-borns is far worse than brewing up a difficult potion. But if you don’t want to find out if it’s Malfoy, I’ll go straight to Madam Pince now and hand the book back in –”

Hermione to Ron and Harry when they start to have second thoughts about making the Polyjuice potion

“Anyone can make can make a mistake,” said Hermione. “And it doesn’t hurt anymore, does it Harry?”

Hermione defending Gilderoy Lockhart’s accidental de-boning of Harry’s arm

“I’d think I’d better do the actual stealing,” Hermione continued in a matter-of-fact tone. “You two will be expelled if you get into any more trouble, and I’ve got a clean record. So all you need to do is cause enough mayhem to keep Snape busy for five minutes or so.”

“No one asked your opinion, you filthy little Mudblood,” he spat.

Draco Malfoy to Hermione

“An’ they haven’t invented a spell our Hermione can’ do,” said Hagrid proudly, making Hermione go a brilliant shade of magenta.

Hagrid’s response to Draco’s reference to Hermione as a ‘Mudblood’

“…but Hermione and Millicent Bulstrode were still moving; Millicent had Hermione in a headlock and Hermione was whimpering in pain; both their wands lay forgotten on the floor.

But Hermione had a steely glint in her eye not unlike the one Professor McGonagall sometimes had.

Hermione telling Ron and Harry how to get the hair from Crabbe & Goyle for the Polyjuice potion

They heard the scrape of the lock and Hermione emerged, shiny-faced and looking anxious. Behind her they heard the gloop gloop of the bubbling, glutinous potion.

Hermione when the Polyjuice potion is finished

Her face was covered in black fur. Her eyes had turned yellow and there were long, pointed ears poking through her hair

  Quotes from Hermione Granger 

“Nobody in my family’s magic at all, it was ever so much a surprise when I got my letter, but I was ever so pleased, of course, I mean, it’s the best school of witchcraft there is, I’ve heard — I’ve learned all our course books by heart, of course, I just hope it will be enough — I’m Hermione Granger, by the way, who are you?”

On the Hogwart’s Express, the first time she meets Harry and Ron.

When she, Harry and Ron decide to save the Sorcerer’s Stone

“Brilliant,” said Hermione. “This isn’t magic — it’s logic — a puzzle. A lot of the greatest wizards haven’t got an ounce of logic, they’d be stuck in here forever.”

  Quotes from Hermione Granger

“Harry, if you’re not going to watch at normal speed, you’re going to miss things!” shouted Hermione, who was dancing up and down, waiting her arms in the air while Troy did a lap of honor around the field.

During the Quidditch World Cup

“What happened?” said Hermione anxiously, stopping so abruptly that Harry walked into her. “Ron, where are you? Oh this is to stupid - lumos!”

While Hermione, Ron and Harry are hiding in the woods after the to Quidditch Cup

“You know, house elves get a very raw deal!” Said Hermione indignantly. “It’s slavery, that’s what is! That Mr. Crouch made her go to the top of the stadium, and she was terrified, and he’s got her bewitched so she can’t even run when they start trampling tents! Why doesn’t anyone do something about it?”

When they find Winky cowering in the woods

“It’s the Dark Mark, Harry!” Hermione moaned, pulling him as hard as she could. “You-Know-Who’s sign!”

When the Dark Mark appears to the sky at the Quidditch Cup

“But she was frightened!” Hermione burst out angrily glaring at Mr. Crouch “Your elf’s scared of heights and those wizards in masks were levitating people! You can’t blame her for wanting to get out there.

Hermione defending Winky when Mr. Crouch about to let Winky go

“The way they were treating her!” said Hermione furiously. “Mr. Diggory, calling her ‘elf’ all the time… and Mr. Crouch! He knows she didn’t do it and he’s still going to sack her! He didn’t care how frightened she’d been or how upset she was - it was like she wasn’t even human!”

After Mr. Crouch fires Winky

“Ron,” said Hermione in a I-don’t-think-you’re-being-very-sensitive sort of voice, “Harry doesn’t want to play Quidditch right now… He’s worried, and he’s tired… We all need to go to bed…”

Hermione looking out for Harry

“But Hogwarts is hidden,” said Hermione, in surprise. “Everyone knows that… Well everyone who’s read Hogwarts, A History, anyway.”

Hermione talking about Hogwarts

“You’re eating again, I notice,” said Ron, watching Hermione adding liberal amounts of jam to her toast too.

  “I’ve decided there are better ways of making a stand about elf rights,” said Hermione haughtily.

  “Yeah… And you were hungry,” said Ron, grinning.

The first breakfast after Hermione finds out that Hogwarts keeps house elves.

“You know perfectly well I always said that to shut Malfoy up,” said Hermione. “As a matter of fact I think he’s right. The thing to do would be to stamp on the lot before they start attacking us all.”

While everyone is at Caring for Magical Creatures class

“Not spew,” said Hermione impatiently. “It’s S-P-E-W. Stands for the Society for the Promotion Elvish welfare.”

When Hermione first tells Harry and Ron about S-P-E-W.

“Excuse me, but I don’t like people just because they’re handsome!” said Hermione indignantly.

When Ron accuses Hermione of thinking that Cedric Diggory is good looking.

“Well, of course I knew you hadn’t entered yourself,” she said when he’d finished telling her about the scene in the chamber off the Hall. “The look on your face when Dumbledore read out your name! But the question is, who did put it in? Because Moody’s right, Harry… I don’t think any student could have done it… they’d never be able to fool the Goblet, or get over Dumbledore’s -”

Hermione’s reasoning for believing the Harry did not put his name into the Goblet of Fire.

Hermione burst into tears. “You two are so stupid!” she shouted, stamping her foot on the ground, tears splashing down her front. Then, before either of them could stop her, she had given both of them a hug and dashed away, now positively howling.

“I hate that Skeeter woman!” she burst out savagely. “I’ll get her back for this if it’s the last thing I do!”

Hermione after Rita writes the article claiming that Harry loves Hermione

“I’ve told her I’ll let her out when we get back to London,” said Hermione. “I’ve put an Unbreakable Charm on the jar, you see, so she can’t transform. And I’ve told her she’s to keep her quill to herself for a whole year. See if she can’t break the habit of writing horrible lies about people.”

When Hermione reveals she has found Rita Skeeter’s secret

Quotes about Hermione Granger

Hermione, meanwhile, was skimming eagerly through her velvet cover tasseled program.

When Harry Hermione and Ron are waiting for the Quidditch matched to begin

Harry knew exactly what was making Mr. Malfoy’s lip curl like that. The Malfoys prided themselves on being pure bloods; in other words, they considered anyone of Muggle descent, like Hermione, second class.

When the Malfoys arrived at the Quidditch match

Hermione made a loud tutting noise. She reached up and pulled Harry back into his seat. “Honestly!” she said.

After the veela have left Quidditch field

“Keep that big bushy head down, Granger,” sneered Malfoy.

When Hermione Ron and Harry run into Malfoy in the woods

Hermione cast the merely dancing flames a dark look, and Harry distinctly heard her mutter “slave labor,” before bidding them good night and disappearing through the doorway to the girl’s dormitory.

When Harry Ron and Hermione returned from dinner

Harry looked around at her. She was looking, not at the spider, but at Neville, and Harry, following her gaze, saw that Neville’s hands were clenched upon the desk in front of him, his knuckles white, his eyes wide and horrified.

After Hermione tells Professor Moody to stop the Cruciatus curse

He pointed one gnarled finger towards the door. Hermione mutter something about not meaning that she wanted to leave. Harry and Ron grinned at each other. They knew Hermione would rather eat bubotuber pus then miss such an important lesson.

When Hermione asks Professor Moody about the ethics of using the Imperius Curse on the students.

Miss Granger remains the only person in this class who has managed to turn a hedgehog into a satisfactory pincushion.

Professor McGonagall commenting on Hermione’s transfiguration abilities.

Hermione often complained about Krum being there - not that he ever bothered them - but because groups of giggling girls often turned up to spy on him from behind bookshelves, and Hermione found the noise distracting.

Hermione in the library

“Hermione, Neville’s right - You are a girl…”

When Ron come on the idea to ask Hermione to the Yule Ball.

Hermione suddenly smiled very mischievously, and Harry noticed it too: It was a very different smile from the one he remembered.

When Harry notices that Hermione’s teeth have shrunk.

But she didn’t look like Hermione at all. She had done something with her hair; it was no longer bushy but sleek and shiny, and twisted up into an elegant knot at the back of her head. She was wearing robes of a floaty, periwinkle-blue material, and she was holding herself differently, somehow - or maybe it was merely the absence of the twenty or so books she usually had slung over her back. She was also smiling - rather nervously, it was true - but the reduction in the size of her front teeth was more noticeable than ever; Harry couldn’t understand how he hadn’t spotted it before.

Quotes about Hermione Granger from Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban


Quotes from Hermione Granger
 

I’ve rewritten my whole History of Magic essay to include some of the things I’ve found out. I hope it’s not too long - it’s two rolls more than Professor Bins asked for.

Hermione in a letter to Harry

“Oh, Ron, don’t talk rubbish,” snapped Hermione. “Black’s already murdered a whole bunch of people in the middle of a crowded street. Do you really think he’s going to worry about attacking Harry just because we’re there?”

When Ron suggests that it would be safe for Harry to sneak into Hogsmeade

“If being good at Divination means I have to pretend to see death omens in lumps of tea, I’m not sure I’ll be studying it much longer! That lesson was absolute rubbish.compared with my Arithmancy class!”

Hermione talking about her first Divination class.

At that very moment, Hermione appeared at his shoulder; she was holding her cloak over her head and was, inexplicably, beaming.
“I’ve had an idea, Harry! Give me your glasses, quick!”
He handed them to her, and as the team watched in amazment, Hermione tapped them with her wand and said, “Impervius!”
“There!” she said, handing them back to Harry. “They will repel water!”

After Harry is unable to play Quidditch due to the rain and his glasses

“Mum and Dad would really love those Toothflossing Stringmints from Honeydukes!”

Hermione talking about doing her Christmas shopping in Hogsmeade

“Ugh, no, Harry won’t want one of those, they’re for vampires, I expect,” Hermione was saying.

  Hermione to Ron when looking at blood-flavored lollipos in Honeydukes.

“But what about Sirius Black?” Hermione hissed. “He could be using one of the passages on that map to get into the castle! The teachers have got to know!”

After Harry shows Hermione and Ron the Maurader’s Map

“Don’t be silly,” said Hermione in a panicky voice. “Harry doesn’t want to kill anyone, do you, Harry?”

  (further down on th page)
