Of Stoned Philosophers and Potty Lexicons

May 3rd, 2008 · 1 Comment · Four pillars

It appears that the Assessment and Qualifications Alliance, (otherwise known as AQA), in its infinite wisdom, has decided to offer Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone as a set text. AQA is the UK’s largest exam board, and the text has been set for a module called Themes in Language and Literature.

After all the kerfuffle about Potter lexicons, I can’t help but wonder what’s going to happen when Cliff starts writing his famous Notes about the book. Or are we actually going to see the author publish her own version of Cliff’s Notes?

    Have any bookies laid odds that JK Rowling will sue the AQA for using her IP?
