Abstract
The main topic of this thesis is the website Pottermore created by Warner Bros. and J.K. Rowling. The interactive website is a new phenomenon in the literary world. The purpose of this thesis is to gain insight in the different functions that Pottermore can fulfill for both the author/maker of the site and the reader/visitor of it, in relation to the Harry Potter book series by J.K. Rowling.
The website operates in a literary field that is not used to having additional information about a story on an interactive website. Pottermore has a navigating, interpreting and immersive function for the audience. For the author it is a way to protect her intellectual property and for the publishing house and the marketing team Pottermore has a huge commercial function.
