Arthurian, Christian and fairytale motifs are frequently found in Rowling's writing. Harry's ability to draw the Sword of Gryffindor from the Sorting Hat resembles the Arthurian sword in the stone legend. [246] His life with the Dursleys has been compared to Cinderella. [247] Like C.

They are in the active past, which means she avoids using passive sentences. The above passage from her novel shows it amply.
