Snape's Obituary etc.

Aug 06, 2007 17:55


"Severus Snape, Headmaster of Hogwarts and longtime Potions Master and Head of Slytherin House, was killed by Voldemort in June 1998 in an attempt to acquire the power of the Elder Wand. Feared by many students at Hogwarts as a strict and cruel teacher, and hated by many for his killing of Albus Dumbledore and Death Eater activities, Snape was, in actuality, a spy for the Order of the Phoenix, who at great personal risk misled Voldemort and helped to engineer his downfall. He did kill Dumbledore, but only on the great wizard's orders. Donations may be made to the Greasy Git Image Rehabilitation Society, c/o Weasley's Wizard Wheezes, Hogsmeade."

~ from New York Magazine's Harry Potter: The Complete Obituaries (Peter Pettigrew's obituary is also worth a read.)

The same magazine also has a review of DH, Harry Potter and the Ignominious Cop-Out
Unfortunately there is no mention of the Potions Master.
