Theme in the Novel vs. Harry Potter
Theme in the Novel
The theme was portrayed throughout the entire novel. The main link to this theme in the book were Benedick and Beatrice. Benedick and Beatrice did not even want to look at each other, let alone get married. As the novel progressed from the beginning to the end, they started to like each other even more and ended up getting married at the end. Other examples of Time changes people in the book would be Claudio. On page 21 and continuing, Claudio is talking about how before, all he did was talk about war. Now, after he saw Hero for the first time, he is now just thinking about love. Before, they described Claudio as a man who wouldn't get involved in all this love. Now after time has passed in the book, all he can think about is getting married to Hero. In contrast to Harry Potter, there were more change dealing with love and their personalities rather than action like Harry Potter.
Theme in Harry Potter
The theme Time Changes People is portrayed in different characteristics and actions compared to the novel. In the beginning, Harry is a adoptive child. He was very shy and didn't really do anything we see exciting Harry could do. Then as he was at Hogwarts, instead of being shy, he changed to being more open and ended up making more and more friends and some enemies. The Theme in Harry Potter was more dealing with the actions that Harry had took.
