| | | Harry Potter launch longlisted for Key Cultural Landmark moments The Times reports that the Sky Arts channel are trying to compile a list of the key cultural landmark moments of the past 21 years. The launch of Harry Potter, in 1997, with the release of Philosopher's Stone, has been longlisted. Quote:
The release of J. K. Rowling’s Harry Potter and The Philosopher’s Stone in 1997 launched a franchise which proved the publishing industry can create Hollywood-style blockbusters.
Quote: Books
9. 1988, The Satanic Verses, Salman Rushdie’s fourth novel, causes controversy among Muslims
10. 1996, The Orange Prize for Fiction, open to female authors from any nationality. Helen Dunmore is the first winner with A Spell of Winter 11. 1997, Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone released, sparking J. K. Rowling’s huge success
12. 2007, Doris Lessing wins the Nobel Prize for Literature, the eleventh woman to win this award in 106 years
13. 2003, Edward Said’s final public appearance at the Hay Festival
The aim is to narrow the list down to 10 moments to mark the 21st anniversairy of the Hay-on-Wye literary festival. Viewers of the channel will be able to vote for their favourites. Quote:
A spokesman for Sky Arts said: “These are our proposed 21 events but we invite objections and recommendations. We will conduct a UK survey and reveal the results in the week before the festival.”
The festival in Powys, Wales, takes place on May 22nd - June 1st. Other categories included in the longlist feature art & design, music, film, theatre and opera & dance. |

they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,
but you know what? It was real. It did happen.
We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. |
