Quidditch Through the Ages

Style and Technique

The book «Quidditch Through the Ages» by J.K. Rowling is written in the style of a pseudo-historical study, giving it a unique character among other works about the world of Harry Potter. The language is rich with humor and irony, making it a light and enjoyable read. The author employs numerous literary techniques, such as embedded stories, anecdotes, and fictional quotes, to create an illusion of authenticity and depth in the historical research. The structure resembles an encyclopedia or textbook, with clearly organized chapters, each dedicated to a specific aspect of Quidditch, from its origins to modern rules and teams. This approach allows readers to easily navigate the material and delve into topics of interest. The book also features illustrations and diagrams that help visualize the events and elements of the game described.
