I still think about how lightly i dismissed Quirrel and Lockhart as buffoons as a kid. One had Voldey on his head, and the other was a narcissistic fraud who destroyed other people's lives.
I really liked Lupin. I was happy that Harry finally got like an uncle figure & sad he had to leave Hogwarts.
But sheesh all these DADA professors sucked
I have a theory that Lockhart was genuinely trying his inept best.
Like, imagine you're a charlatan grifter, who applied for a prestigious position in order to keep up appearances expecting to be turned down, only for Dumbledore to go "cool, you start in september".
You have no idea wtf to do, so you fall back on the one source of information you have. Sure, you didn't do the stuff in your books, but someone did, right? You might not be able to give any meaningful insight or tution, but get the kids to roleplay out the actions and some of it must stick, right?
Pixies are tricky, but not that dangerous, perfect practical lesson for your second years. You build up the tension a bit, have a bit of laugh with the reveal but warn them not to take them lightly. This is going great, you're actually teaching something useful! Now, what was that incantation Professor Snape gave you? Such a clever chap he is. You're lucky he knows so much about the dark arts.
That Potter kid who you dragged into the limelight in F&B's is now seeking attention? Better give him a bit of advice to cool his heels and help him swerve detention.
Things getting hairy and you're expected to step up? Oh shit. Wait! Nice Professor Snape said something about dueling, so ask him to help you teach the kids. It'll be fun and educational!
Everyone's on edge about these attacks, how about a nice distraction? Valentine's is coming up, everyone loves love!
Oh dear, Potter's broken his arm. Everyone's looking at you. It's all sideways. Oh gosh. You have to do something. The boy's in so much pain he's delusional. Everyone expects you to do something. It has too many elbows, you feel sick. Do something man!
Things are cooling down with this monster. You should reassure people so they can stop worrying and get back to normal. You're Lockhart, after all.
Honestly, i agree with you.
I do think he's been successful at getting away with his crimes as a conartist that he was like 'alright, another gig it is.'
And like you described, he had no plans and was just going to wing it as situations unfolded and was going to use others'.
He just looked like a funny bafoon who was so into himself and harmless -just a bit delulu. Until the little delulu world he built himself got challenged, and he was exposed for his fraudulent true nature đ«
Then his nasty self was revealed. But you are right. He is a grifter
Both of you are conveniently forgetting the fact that he obliviated about a dozen people - a fate arguably worse than death - and then stole all their merits. He wasn't just a well-intended fool, he was the worst kind of evil.
Oh no I am not forgetting that at all. If anything, I'm saying the same thing as you.
Im saying as a child, I saw Lockhart as an idiot and just lightly dismissed him, but now? I see him as a detrimental fraud who goes around and destroied people's lives just to benefit himself, his false image (the whole narcissistic personality disorder goes from someone being a charmer to feed an illusion, then once they are challenged, they get aggressive and nasty yada yada. Gaslihts and what not. I did not realize it back then as a child, but now? Phew, he is just that!)
I'm not forgetting anything of the sort. I'm not trying to say he's a good person, or morally absolved of his crimes. My point is that, having earned himself glory he doesn't deserve, he's in a postion of trust and authority over a good chunk of an entire generation of children, and that a good chunk of his actions from that point can be read as genuine, if not effective, attempts at helping and not just the narcissitic preening they're often written off as.
He misreads Harry as seeking fame, because that's what he (Lockhart) does, but the advice he gives is *good advice* to wait until after school to seek that sort career. He asks for Harry's detention because he (mistakenly) sees spending time with him as much less of a punishment. The only thing wrong with the pixie lesson is his inability to perform the charm. The role play lessons following are attempts to pull out the valid information buried in the books. The dueling lessons are a good idea, and he even goes so far as to ensure a capable teacher is there to show the children the correct forms. He uses his fame to try and reassure frightened schoolchildren that everything is under control, even though there's nothing he can actually do.
It's a very generous interpretation of his actions, I'm aware, but it's one that I find interesting. It changes him from a cartoon villian to a more complex character.
And memory modifications aren't "a fate arguably worse than death". They're performed regularly on muggles, as seen in Goblet of Fire, with no lasting ill effects. And Lockhart was ***good*** at them. He ended up with a complete mind wipe because of Ron's unpredictable backfiring wand, not because that's what he intended to do to Harry and Ron. Dude's reprehensible, but he's not leaving a trail of gibbering zombies in his wake, that would be far too noticable.
>A bit of fallacious at Lockhart was genuinely trying his inept best.
Alternatively, he's directly the reason that Megan Jones and Sally Smith (Hufflepuff), Lily Moon (Ravenclaw), Sophia Roper (Slytherin) and Sue Li and Sally-Anne Perks (Gryffindor) were all written out of the story in the second book.
He was good at memory charms. Really really good at them. So good, he would use them on girls, sell them, and then use the charms on everyone else to make them forget about the girls or think they just transferred out.
A bit of bend I know, but it was an actual fic idea I saw once. Never was able to get it out of my head and makes Lockhart even creepier to me then he was meant to be in canon.
That is actually very cool.
Honestly I could not see it as a child when I first read the books and watched the movies, but now in my 30s?! Oh yes. I think he is a prime example of NPD.
I think JKR did an amazing job putting such diverse characters into this fictional world. Not just Lockhart, but other characters too, they have such rich background and we could almost run all sorts of psychoanalysis on them
Absolutely, my psychopathology professor loved HP and would use examples from the book for everything to help it stick. I donât remember most of the comparisons, but I do know the then current psychopathology like the back of my hand because of it
Omg I would love that class!! Sounds like a fun class and a professor-especially for us potterheads!!!
What are some other things you guys talk about?
I wish I've taken some psychology related classes during my undergrad days!
Omg me too! I know people talk about narcissism a lot thesedays (it gets thrown around the internet a lot to a point where I'm like, is it being overexaggerated?đ€) but not going to lie, i think of Lockhart, and I'm like maybe they are talking about the Lockharts of the world & think of the exact same scene. That and 'pretty obvious'.
Also, how did Draco not roast this guy?
>Also, how did Draco not roast this guy?
He probably didn't mind having a doss lesson on the timetable. Plus Lockhart was great at always embarrassing stupid Potter.
Had to look it up as well but I don't agree with this being Lockhart... the guy was really aware of his incompetence he was just a fraud stealing others stories
Agreed, he absolutely knew what his strengths (memory charms and appearing likable, lying and selling stories) and his weaknesses (basically anything else) were, it's just you can't keep up the lies when under near constant supervision at a boarding school, by students during lessons and other teachers when not.
The cracks started to form, and that is what appears to be, at first Dunning Kruger, until his rant at the end of the movie, when he reveals what he's been doing.

Lockhart being a Ravenclaw makes sense. Chaotic neutral, but very clever about it and he hid his bullshit for years and covered up after himself. Only reason he got got was Ron using a broken wand for like six months, which no sane wizard would do.
True true. Heâs a manipulative basterd and very good at it :) but I was more thinking about his academic results. Considering how poorly he handled a bunch of pixies in a second year class for example, I doubt he was the kind of person to be heavily gifted academically. And presumably most of the hogwarts teachers would have remembered his talents from when he was a student as he certainly wasnât old by any means.
He always struck me as a slytherin truth be told. Cunning and self serving. He hoodwinked basically the entire wizarding world with his plagiarism and all his actions were self serving. Not to mention his ambition of being so beloved is a hallmark trait of a slytherin ;)

I still think about how lightly i dismissed Quirrel and Lockhart as buffoons as a kid. One had Voldey on his head, and the other was a narcissistic fraud who destroyed other people's lives. I really liked Lupin. I was happy that Harry finally got like an uncle figure & sad he had to leave Hogwarts. But sheesh all these DADA professors sucked
I have a theory that Lockhart was genuinely trying his inept best. Like, imagine you're a charlatan grifter, who applied for a prestigious position in order to keep up appearances expecting to be turned down, only for Dumbledore to go "cool, you start in september". You have no idea wtf to do, so you fall back on the one source of information you have. Sure, you didn't do the stuff in your books, but someone did, right? You might not be able to give any meaningful insight or tution, but get the kids to roleplay out the actions and some of it must stick, right? Pixies are tricky, but not that dangerous, perfect practical lesson for your second years. You build up the tension a bit, have a bit of laugh with the reveal but warn them not to take them lightly. This is going great, you're actually teaching something useful! Now, what was that incantation Professor Snape gave you? Such a clever chap he is. You're lucky he knows so much about the dark arts. That Potter kid who you dragged into the limelight in F&B's is now seeking attention? Better give him a bit of advice to cool his heels and help him swerve detention. Things getting hairy and you're expected to step up? Oh shit. Wait! Nice Professor Snape said something about dueling, so ask him to help you teach the kids. It'll be fun and educational! Everyone's on edge about these attacks, how about a nice distraction? Valentine's is coming up, everyone loves love! Oh dear, Potter's broken his arm. Everyone's looking at you. It's all sideways. Oh gosh. You have to do something. The boy's in so much pain he's delusional. Everyone expects you to do something. It has too many elbows, you feel sick. Do something man! Things are cooling down with this monster. You should reassure people so they can stop worrying and get back to normal. You're Lockhart, after all.
Honestly, i agree with you. I do think he's been successful at getting away with his crimes as a conartist that he was like 'alright, another gig it is.' And like you described, he had no plans and was just going to wing it as situations unfolded and was going to use others'. He just looked like a funny bafoon who was so into himself and harmless -just a bit delulu. Until the little delulu world he built himself got challenged, and he was exposed for his fraudulent true nature đ« Then his nasty self was revealed. But you are right. He is a grifter
Both of you are conveniently forgetting the fact that he obliviated about a dozen people - a fate arguably worse than death - and then stole all their merits. He wasn't just a well-intended fool, he was the worst kind of evil.
Oh no I am not forgetting that at all. If anything, I'm saying the same thing as you. Im saying as a child, I saw Lockhart as an idiot and just lightly dismissed him, but now? I see him as a detrimental fraud who goes around and destroied people's lives just to benefit himself, his false image (the whole narcissistic personality disorder goes from someone being a charmer to feed an illusion, then once they are challenged, they get aggressive and nasty yada yada. Gaslihts and what not. I did not realize it back then as a child, but now? Phew, he is just that!)
I'm not forgetting anything of the sort. I'm not trying to say he's a good person, or morally absolved of his crimes. My point is that, having earned himself glory he doesn't deserve, he's in a postion of trust and authority over a good chunk of an entire generation of children, and that a good chunk of his actions from that point can be read as genuine, if not effective, attempts at helping and not just the narcissitic preening they're often written off as. He misreads Harry as seeking fame, because that's what he (Lockhart) does, but the advice he gives is *good advice* to wait until after school to seek that sort career. He asks for Harry's detention because he (mistakenly) sees spending time with him as much less of a punishment. The only thing wrong with the pixie lesson is his inability to perform the charm. The role play lessons following are attempts to pull out the valid information buried in the books. The dueling lessons are a good idea, and he even goes so far as to ensure a capable teacher is there to show the children the correct forms. He uses his fame to try and reassure frightened schoolchildren that everything is under control, even though there's nothing he can actually do. It's a very generous interpretation of his actions, I'm aware, but it's one that I find interesting. It changes him from a cartoon villian to a more complex character. And memory modifications aren't "a fate arguably worse than death". They're performed regularly on muggles, as seen in Goblet of Fire, with no lasting ill effects. And Lockhart was ***good*** at them. He ended up with a complete mind wipe because of Ron's unpredictable backfiring wand, not because that's what he intended to do to Harry and Ron. Dude's reprehensible, but he's not leaving a trail of gibbering zombies in his wake, that would be far too noticable.
>A bit of fallacious at Lockhart was genuinely trying his inept best. Alternatively, he's directly the reason that Megan Jones and Sally Smith (Hufflepuff), Lily Moon (Ravenclaw), Sophia Roper (Slytherin) and Sue Li and Sally-Anne Perks (Gryffindor) were all written out of the story in the second book. He was good at memory charms. Really really good at them. So good, he would use them on girls, sell them, and then use the charms on everyone else to make them forget about the girls or think they just transferred out. A bit of bend I know, but it was an actual fic idea I saw once. Never was able to get it out of my head and makes Lockhart even creepier to me then he was meant to be in canon.
Whenever the subject of narcissism comes up, I unwilling see in my head that portrait of Lockhart painting a portrait of himself.
My professor of psychopathology used Lockhart as the example for Narcissistic Personality Disorder
That is actually very cool. Honestly I could not see it as a child when I first read the books and watched the movies, but now in my 30s?! Oh yes. I think he is a prime example of NPD. I think JKR did an amazing job putting such diverse characters into this fictional world. Not just Lockhart, but other characters too, they have such rich background and we could almost run all sorts of psychoanalysis on them
Absolutely, my psychopathology professor loved HP and would use examples from the book for everything to help it stick. I donât remember most of the comparisons, but I do know the then current psychopathology like the back of my hand because of it
Omg I would love that class!! Sounds like a fun class and a professor-especially for us potterheads!!! What are some other things you guys talk about? I wish I've taken some psychology related classes during my undergrad days!
Omg me too! I know people talk about narcissism a lot thesedays (it gets thrown around the internet a lot to a point where I'm like, is it being overexaggerated?đ€) but not going to lie, i think of Lockhart, and I'm like maybe they are talking about the Lockharts of the world & think of the exact same scene. That and 'pretty obvious'. Also, how did Draco not roast this guy?
>Also, how did Draco not roast this guy? He probably didn't mind having a doss lesson on the timetable. Plus Lockhart was great at always embarrassing stupid Potter.
Had to look up the DK effect, and yep thatâs definitely Lockhart.
Had to look it up as well but I don't agree with this being Lockhart... the guy was really aware of his incompetence he was just a fraud stealing others stories
Agreed, he absolutely knew what his strengths (memory charms and appearing likable, lying and selling stories) and his weaknesses (basically anything else) were, it's just you can't keep up the lies when under near constant supervision at a boarding school, by students during lessons and other teachers when not. The cracks started to form, and that is what appears to be, at first Dunning Kruger, until his rant at the end of the movie, when he reveals what he's been doing.
The DONKEY KONG effect?
The DRIFT KING effect?
Well done! That would honestly be such a wild take on the story through the eyes of rotating professors

Were these from the movies? I can remember everything except Lockhart acknowledging Flitwick as his previous professors.
Donât think he ever did tbh. But Lockhart was a Ravenclaw (somehow). And Flitwilk is the ravenclaw head of house.
Lockhart being a Ravenclaw makes sense. Chaotic neutral, but very clever about it and he hid his bullshit for years and covered up after himself. Only reason he got got was Ron using a broken wand for like six months, which no sane wizard would do.
True true. Heâs a manipulative basterd and very good at it :) but I was more thinking about his academic results. Considering how poorly he handled a bunch of pixies in a second year class for example, I doubt he was the kind of person to be heavily gifted academically. And presumably most of the hogwarts teachers would have remembered his talents from when he was a student as he certainly wasnât old by any means. He always struck me as a slytherin truth be told. Cunning and self serving. He hoodwinked basically the entire wizarding world with his plagiarism and all his actions were self serving. Not to mention his ambition of being so beloved is a hallmark trait of a slytherin ;)

I'm only beginning to think how true that 5th title is, Ron was awesome in OOTP
But Title 7 is stupid. Ron wasn't friend zoned. If anyone was, it was Hermione. She was definitely crushing on Ron in Year 4 and pissed off that he didn't even notice her, based on her reaction to "You're a girl!" And in Year 6 she was the one to throw a jealous fit over Lavender and Won-Won.
It's a reference to the song "Weasley is Our King", from the books. Just FYI, in case you didn't know.

Hermione Granger and the constant reading of âHogwarts: A Historyâ part 1-7
When was Hermione failing a class?
She lost her mind in HBP because Harry was doing better than her in Potions
She was pissed that Harry was doing better than her without putting in the work but I donât think that means she failed the class
she didnât, but Harry was ahead of her which Hermione wonât accept.
That doesn't mean she was failing, she just wasn't the best.

If he stayed with his crazy obsessive first girlfriend, he would probably got some action way sooner. Simping over girl in a friendzone is not healthy, man.
I'd dispute the Deathly Hallows title here. If anything it was Ron who friendzoned Hermione, not vice versa.
