Who is Hermione
Hermione Jane Granger (b. 19 September 1979) is a character in J.K.
Rowling's Harry Potter book series. She is portrayed by Emma Watson in the
Harry Potter movies.
Hermione is a Gryffindor student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and
Wizardry and is one of Harry Potter's and Ron Weasley's best friends.
Older than Harry and Ron
Her birthdate makes Hermione the oldest of her classmates. Since Hogwarts
only accepts first-year students who have turned eleven years old at the start
of the school term on 1 September, Hermione was too young to have joined
the previous class.
For years it was widely assumed that she was born in September 1980, the
same year as Ron and Harry. However, Rowling pointed out that to attend
Hogwarts, one must be eleven years old, and Hermione was born in 1979.
Therefore Hermione is nearly twelve when she begins school in September of
1991.
Not Good Under Pressure?
Hermione is brave and loyal and has a fierce political conscience, but
sometimes has problems keeping her head during crises; for instance, while
fighting the Devil's Snare in the first book (when told to light a fire, she
memorably responds “There’s no wood!”, even though she had conjured
magical flames earlier in the year.
Strong Mind
Indeed, Hermione's intellect is strongest in memory and objective analysis, and
she sometimes has difficulty when forced to make snap judgements. It should
be noted however, that it is usually her plans that Harry and Ron follow. While
she has made mistakes, whatever she suggests usually is the best course of
action.
Hermione can get very annoyed with people who either do not know simple
facts, or else do not follow sensible ideas.
While she strongly supports obeying rules, she has, since joining up with Harry
and Ron, shown a willingness to break the rules when necessary, as well as
showing a vindictive streak against those who wrong her.
Just Like JK
Rowling admits that Hermione is in many ways based upon herself.
Hermione's Patronus is an otter, Rowling's favourite animal.
Hermione's middle name, Jane (never mentioned in the books, only on
Rowling's official site), is a feminine form of "John", as is "Joanne", Rowling's
first name.
