Статья в Яху-ньюз: Missing from 'Harry Potter' - a real moral struggle
Snape: the authentic protagonist
Rowling has publicly expressed mystification over her readers' fascination with Snape, even suggesting that his appeal is simply "the bad boy syndrome." Instead, her readers, whether consciously or not, have tapped into something that Rowling herself may have failed to recognize.
That something was a need for a protagonist who genuinely struggled to define - and do - the right thing. A passive main character with no authentic moral dilemma is not only hard to relate to, he or she is also no guide in circumstances in which right and wrong are anything less than black and white.
In a society increasingly steeped in moral relativism, it's not the Harrys of the world who will make a difference. It's the Snapes.
Все верно. Только я бы не стала использовать множественное число ^.
