罗琳（J. K. Rowling）的“哈利·波特”系列自1997年问世以来，透过小说和电影，这部饶富魔法趣味的作品已经成功引了全球数百万读者，各地的粉丝与罗琳的作品也一起成长，无论是当代的优秀作家或学者，都从中汲取过灵感。 这本书的作者从英国的神话和传奇角度出发，解读了罗琳的“哈利·波特”系列。本书广涉英国历史与斯堪地纳维亚中古文学等领域，带领读者追踪哈利·波特中隐藏的历史谱系，诸如纯血统巫师是否为诺曼人的反映、伏地魔是否为寻求恢复的专制君主、邓布利多是否为前凯尔特人德鲁伊哲学家、霍格沃茨魔法学校的各种象征的涵义等问题。作者认为，神话和传奇在某种程度上启发了人们的想象力和文学创作的欲望，因此在研究和理解人类文明史中占有一席之地。古欧洲的传说、中世纪文学、古典文学和近现代文学都是藉由集体想象力的渗透作用，C.S.刘易斯、J.R.R.托尔金、J.K.罗琳等作为现当代英国幻想文学的代表，其作品中体现的文明精神内核不容忽视。
