Harry Potter Chiasms catalog.

This is a dump-all post. Sometimes I worry that I forget some of the material I have noticed and written on in the HP series as far as chiasm goes. There is quite a bit of stuff spread across a decent range of writing, so this is simply a culling into one place of the bare details grouped together as 1-4-7 chiasms, 2-4-6 chiasms, and 3-4-5 chiasms. If I ever noticed more, this is where I will catalog them

1–4–7  (some are only 1 and 7, which are noted as such)

Live Family shades (mirror, wand, stone)

Dragons (Norbert, Horntail, Gringotts)

Hagrid on the bike carrying Harry to and from the Dursleys (only 1 and 7)

Harry/Ron/Hermione Neville  (House points in 1 and horcruxes in 7)

Twin cores of wands

Time: desire for a watch in 1 (when sentenced under the stairs), watch breaks in the lake in 4, wizard’s watch received in 7

2–4–6  (some are only 2 and 6, which situation is noted)

Horcruxes

Seekers (4 = house of seekers, 4 elements when bringing in Cho as seeker for Fleur)

Draco, Bourgin, Cabinet, cursed necklace (2–6)

Slugs (2–6)

Unorthodox entries and Snape’s criticism (2–6)

Hover charms (4 and 6 = levicorpus)

Books (2–6 diary and prince’s potion book)

Magical Invasion of the Dursley House (Dobby, Weasleys, DD … you have the area invaded by dementors in book 5, but this is specifically the domicile)

Magical transport other than brooms that Harry doesn’t like (2= flu powder, 4 = portkey, 6 = apparition)

Phoenix song (2 = in the chamber, 4 = the light cage, 6 = the lament)

3–4–5

Curriculum (increases year 3, decreases after 5)

Hagrid’s CoMC classes

Divination/prophecy (fits with both curriculum an narrative arc)

Dementors (materially and symbolically, mental health: Lockhart and the Longbottoms)

Cho (presence in 4 intersects house of the seekers)

Sirius

Time (time turners used in 3, destroyed in 5, comments on time and watch breaking in 4)

Inside book 4: World Cup pairs with Graveyard, then first and third tasks pair, then task 2 at center with descent into lake, where is found myth, time-breaking, and love relationships.
