point of view of Harry

In the previous post I tried to illustrate how a story can be written from different points of view. Left open the question of point of view adopted in Harry Potter.

The first volume begins with a short story: Dumbledore leaves Harry in the doorway of the small house of his uncles. The story is short: it runs in a chapter, over which we find Harry has now grown up. Many years have passed. It can be said that the first chapter serves as background.

The background has a peculiar characteristic: Harry is too young to understand what happens. Therefore impossible to tell anything from the point of view Harry. That viewpoint is adopted here? I leave the question open.

From the second chapter onwards, the view becomes that of Harry. This is the internal point of view: we all know what Harry feels, see what you see, we are aware of what he thinks. It is not therefore outside perspective.

And if we were faced with an omniscient narrator? We do not know maybe what they think of Harry's friends? Ron what he thinks, for example?

I would say no. Ron's thoughts are unknown to us, unless he manifests on the outside, confiding with Harry, Ron's feelings are not directly known, except that shine out: then we we can read on his face, his gestures, tone of his voice. The fact is that Ron is outgoing, rarely takes place in what he thinks. If anything, it is first thought to have enough, at least until the 4th volume. That's why we know his thoughts, because Harry knows them.

similar situation could be done for other friends of Harry, we know of them what he knows Harry. So we know less and less of their inner world, as we move away from Harry.

An exception is at the beginning of the book 4: I remember it was surprised at the reading. He was told what was happening in a country house. They saw Wormtail, Nagini, and that monster Voldemort. How was that possible? Rowling had decided to abandon the view of internal puno Harry? Or even make a mistake?

Nothing. At the end of the chapter, Harry wakes up, and we learn that in a dream he was seeing what was happening in the abandoned house. That's why we could see it too.

now opens a question: Rowling gets the result by adopting the internal point of view of Harry?

I see that I will continue my post a little longer, to answer this question.
