Abstract Harry Potter series written by a famous English writer J.K.Rowling became one of the most popular fantasy and magic literary works in the modern world. As we all know, many western literature works are associated with religion and Myth. As a Christian, the writer J.K.Rowling was greatly affected by Christianity. Therefore, based on Jung’s archetypal theory the writer attempts to dig out the biblical archetypes of Harry Potter not only in three main characters which includes Harry Potter, Professor Albus Dumbledore and Lord Voldemort but also in plots including love, suspect and paradise. Through the analysis, the writer tentatively proposes J.K.Rowling’s general religious view on love, righteousness, temptation and her expectation of religious belief regression, which helps readers enjoy the magic atmosphere and understand the beauty, the good and the true meaning of the life. 53361

1. Introduction
J.K.Rowing is a famous English writer who created Harry Potter series novels. When the first book Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone was published in 1997, it became bestseller and attracted a large number of people to study throughout the world. And there are over 70 kinds of version all over the world. The writer followed the first novel with several sequels: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Harry Potter and the Goblet of fire, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, which mainly describe the protagonist, a child hero, Harry Potter's whole life in the magical school “Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry”.
As Liang Gong said in his book, The Holy Bible has become the endless source of western writers to borrow and quote. And Jeffrey David Lyle also thinks that without The Holy Bible, it was impossible for western literature works to be so famous. As a Christian, Joann Kathleen Rowling is such a famous writer with a strong sense of bible. As what she said, she went to church alone. She found it very interesting what was being said there, and she believed in it. Though she never claimed that her novels were affected by The Holy Bible, we can find there is the closest connection between Harry Potter series and The Holy Bible according to its details plots and so on. All of these can reflect Rowling’s religious view. This essay will analyze this religious view from the perspective of main character and plot archetypes. 《哈利波特》的圣经原型解读:http://www.youerw.com/yingyu/lunwen_57456.html
