Welcome to History of Magic
Term 15
Professor: Queety
TA: Joshua Thomas
Welcome to History of Magic, a class where you can learn where the society of witches and wizards had come from. While, most have perceived HOM as a boring class, I can assure you that it can be both informative and fun! The class was originally taught by the headmistress herself when Trio’s Hogwarts reopened. However, it has been given to the current Professor and TA, two individuals who want nothing more than to teach their students as they grow into mature witches and wizards.
A past professor once said, “Just understand your past. You’ll be set for the future.” Understanding the past will help us understand the future! Without knowing what had happened before, we are victims to the same mistakes. HOM is also a great class because it can satisfy your curiosity. You may think you know the story of King Tut or Zeus, the god, or even Harry Potter. However, through this course, you will learn the truth and have your facts straight. History is a story, one that we will unravel every term.
Your journey begins as a first year, where you learn about the known beginning of wizards. You will progress through until you come onto recent past events, also known as the story of Harry Potter. In each term, you will learn about the development of the relationship between magic and muggles and come to understand who we’ve become today.
Below is the list of classes. Those italicized are classes taught by the professor while the rest are taught by the TA.
1st years: The Beginning of Magic: Ancient Egypt
2nd years: Magic and Muggle Connections: Ancient Greece
3rd years: The Magical Mind: Salem Witchcraft Trials
4th years: The Starting of an Institution: The Founding and Houses of Hogwarts
5th, 6th, and 7th years: The Tale of Harry Potter: Recent Events
All we ask of you, as students, is to come to class prepared to be taken on a journey. Hopefully, you will leave amazed and knowing of the wonderful world in which you live!
