Then, I apply my analysis on the British Empire on "Harry Potter", using creatures like goblins, centaurs and house-elves as examples of subaltern peoples on the saga. Secondly, I investigate some forms that subaltern colonised peoples had found to rebel against British domination. Firstly, I present a brief historic background on the British Empire, analysing the social, political and economic justifications and mechanisms not only for the creation of the empire, but also for the establishment of rigid hierarchies between the peoples of Britain and of its colonies. Thus, I intend to show the presentness of the British imperialist past through the example of a contemporary and extremely popular story, scrutinised under a post-colonial approach to concepts such as hegemony and subalternity. Rowling’s work in the Victorian tradition of the adventure novel, I establish in this dissertation a comparison between British imperialist rhetoric and the discourse of wizards in the saga through the way both created and maintained social hierarchies.
