Chapter-by-Chapter continues with Half-Blood Prince Chapter 4: Horace Slughorn
The MuggleCast Pensieve segment, highlighting our last discussion of this chapter on MuggleCast #381, features some raspberry jam analysis!
Why don’t Dumbledore and Harry simply Apparate into Slughorn’s home?
Should Harry have so willingly trusted that Dumbledore was, in fact, Dumbledore, given the danger and uncertainty of the times?
What do we think of Dumbledore’s plan to use Harry to lure Slughorn back to Hogwarts—is it clever strategy or subtle manipulation?
What does it say about Slughorn that he isn’t aligned with Voldemort, yet refuses to take a stand against him?
Slughorn “The Collector” is one of the most morally gray Slytherins of the series
How does Slughorn’s casual bigotry—his need to say “You musn't think I'm prejudiced!”—reveal a subtler form of bias in the wizarding world?
Does Slughorn’s “collector” mentality mirror real-world networking culture? Isn't the Slug Club just Hogwarts’ version of a professional society?
MVP: What's the best perk Slughorn gets from his Slug Club alumni?
Lynx Line: Patreons tell us about a talent/accomplishment that would get them recruited to the Slug Club!
