Such a story is told in Plato's "The Republic".

There was a shepherd named Guas. One day he picked up a magic ring while grazing. If he turned the magic ring 180 degrees, he could become invisible. If he turned it back, he could appear. With this invisibility technique

, he did many immoral things, cunning things, and even murder.

He is a gangster and villain, but he is a well-known rich man. Guas not only makes huge profits by pretending to be a good guy, but also makes a lot of profits by committing evil without being punished.

There is a novel named after "The Lord of the Rings". The "halfling" Frodo in the book inherits a Lord's Ring from his uncle. The ring allows his uncle to "remain young forever" as long as he does not take it off.

But that ring actually belongs to the Dark Lord Sauron, and many people want to get it.

In the story, the "Supreme Lord of the Rings" is the owner of all rings, but Pomona is concerned about what Frodo will do if he gets the ring, and whether he will use it to do evil like the shepherd Guas.

This ring has such a great temptation. If it is given to a fair and upright person, will he fall quickly?

As the story goes on, in order to transport the Lord of the Rings to the place where it was born and destroyed, Frodo embarked on an adventurous journey under the escort of his friends. On the way, he did meet many people who were attracted by the Lord of the Rings, many of whom

The upright man falls.

In wizards' fairy tales, there is no invisibility ring, but there is an invisibility cloak, which the youngest of the three brothers uses to hide himself from death.

In the 15th century, there was a Muggle named Eunan Wood, and his power was exploited by his parents. The lord's enclosure would first let some craftsmen build wooden fences on the common land and knock on them for ten days.

For half a month, the tenant farmers were angry but dared not say anything when they saw it.

After confirming that no one would tear down these fences, the lord would build a circle of hedges inside the fences "as decoration." When the hedges grew up, they would remove the wooden fences, but the hedges were often damaged.

This makes a lot of noise, but the magic allows the hedge to move imperceptibly without leaving any traces on the surface.

If it weren't for Younan receiving a notice from the magic school, he would have continued to be forced to work by his parents until they were satisfied. Later, he met Artemisia Black, a mixed-race person named Black, in school.

Witch.

The carnival is not just for Muggles, who knows who they are after wearing masks. Artemisia's mother had a casual marriage with a Muggle, and she never thought about finding her biological father.

She and Younan got along very well, and the two even fell in love. Under Artemisia's influence, Younan decided not to go back to his parents, and they collaborated to design a terrifying maze to store treasures for wizards.

When their careers stabilized, they began planning to have children. Artemisia got pregnant relatively easily, but the daughter she gave birth to was a squib.

St. Augustine said that because people are afraid of losing something that can disappear at any time against their will, people use it in a way that maintains the bonds of society, and this society is also composed of such people.

Some people make good use of things, and some abuse things. People who abuse things are obsessed with things and cling to them. This means that the things that should be controlled by them come to dominate them. He thinks that things are good in themselves. And people who make good use of things

It proves that something is good, but not because the thing itself is good. The thing does not make it better or better, but because it makes the thing good.

Therefore, he will not be confused by things, nor will he be heartbroken and inexplicable pain when losing it. He is above things, and while possessing it, he is more prepared to lose it.

In short, Artemisia went "crazy" and tortured her squib daughter to the point where she called the witch-hunting generals and led them to Blackwood Manor to capture her "witch" mother.

Artemisia's first half of life may have been unfortunate, but she has a new life, and everything is perfect except for "the same".

People who already have a lot will be more frustrated than people who have nothing but a little. People who only lack one thing will be more dissatisfied than people who lack many things.

The so-called perfectionist, the more she pursues "perfection", she not only tortures herself, but also brings torture to the people around her. Some things cannot be solved by human power, just like Artemisia cannot make her daughter become a witch.

, she cannot accept that her daughter is "defective".

In the end, Blackwood Manor was destroyed in the fire, although it had a very complicated maze to protect its safety, and even wizards could not enter.

Among the files heard by the Imperial Court were parental rights. In one such case, a lady was harassed by a drunkard on the road and was saved by a passing soldier. They met and fell in love.

At that time, Germany no longer had a knightly class, but the knighthood system was retained. The distinction between "honor" and "morality" is difficult to reflect in the code, and it is also difficult to define "dishonorable" and "dishonorable".

Moral” behavioral differences.

When people mention "knight's honor", "dishonour" is reflected, and there is also "citizen's honor", but usually "citizen's honor" will be diminished due to "unethical behavior".

This soldier is not a Junker noble, but an ordinary soldier. He reached the highest level of sergeant. However, he has always restrained himself with "knightly honor" and became a "knightly" figure. He showed "knightlike courage" and was called

Superiors and colleagues recognize him as a "knight".

This honor is parallel to German law and morality, independent of both, and cannot be protected by law.

Later, the sergeant recovered, became a "citizen", ran a mill with his wife, and they had a child.

The wife had worked in a pub before, and because of this experience, the husband always doubted her behavior and sometimes yelled loudly. So the unbearable wife separated from her husband with their children and refused to return to him.

The husband claimed that he had parental rights and requested to get the child from the mother. The wife firmly opposed it. She knew that once the court awarded the child to the husband, she would never see it again in her life.

However, the mother does not have the right not to hand over the child to her husband, but she has the right to request the orphans' court to take appropriate steps to avoid abuse of parental authority and ensure that the child is taken care of.

At this time, parental guardianship was no longer the same as the medieval model of personal authority and submission. Parental authority was only the protector of the "infant", and the "infant" had the right to defend. The absolute obligation to obey in early law was no longer the same.

No longer valid.

Regarding the issue of "abuse of parental rights", it is related to "improper behavior". According to the social ethics at that time, newborns should be left to the care of the mother. If the husband does not leave the newborn to the care of the mother, it is an abuse of parental rights.

Correspondingly, if the father maliciously shirks his guardianship obligations, it is also an abuse of parental power, which involves "dishonorable" and "immoral" behavior as mentioned in the code. "Knightly honor" is required, and "dishonourable" is required.

will be reflected, and "immorality" has nothing to do with "knight's honor".

Although morality is often mentioned together with ethics, ethics is a natural law of human relations, just like a mother takes care of her baby. Although there are also widowers who take care of the children born to their wives who died in childbirth, they have no milk and need to find breast milk.

Substitute.

"Knight" is a real system formed based on customary rules. A sergeant is "recognized" as a knight, regardless of whether his ancestors are knights or which lord canonize him. He "recognizes" that he is the father of the child, and "recognizes" that he is the father of the child.

"I have the duty of guardianship.

Morality can be told through Kant's story about the relationship between the shopkeeper and the customer. The shopkeeper and the customer have never met before, so there is no ethical issue. Even if she has a big belly, it has nothing to do with the shopkeeper.

If the shopkeeper does not give the customer enough money, this is a moral issue on his part, but if he gives her enough money, it is to prevent his reputation from being damaged and no customers will come to his door in the future. This is an ethical issue.

A person who is always selfish will attract hatred and damage his reputation, so acting unselfishly will be more in line with his own interests. However, another way is to convince others that everyone should always act in their own best interests.

And action does not care about other interests, unless the interests of others are in line with his own interests.

There are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests. This famous saying shows universal ethical egoism. It is the same if there are people who do not "do it for themselves" and will be punished by heaven and earth.

King Louis XV of France said, "After I die, even if the floods are raging," this is personal ethical egoism, and at least the French people do not support it.

Solipsistic ethical egoism and personal ethical egoism are easily confused because what they say may irritate others.

However, what the solipsistic ethical immediatist says is sometimes detrimental to oneself, and what it says may even affect one's own survival, not "after I die."

For example, if a Slytherin pure-blood kid suffered a loss, he would arrogantly say, "My dad will know."

Of course, he has no ethical relationship with his opponents, but he does with his father, or as James Potter said, "Rules are for little people."

It depends on how much the dad loves his children, how many children he has, and the magnitude of the crime the child committed. Although Buddy Crouch Sr. told Buddy Crouch Jr. "You are not my son" in court, he also

He was also implicated. He was originally a candidate to be the next Minister of Magic.

The Malfoy family has only one son for generations. Lucius Malfoy only has one son, Draco Malfoy. Although he has constant scandals, he does not have an illegitimate child. After Sirius Black ran away from home, he was quickly eliminated by his mother.

, Regulus Black became the heir to the Black family.

With Sirius imprisoned in Azkaban and Regulus missing, it seemed that the direct male line of Black was about to be severed. Several families related to Black by marriage were gearing up, and many properties were divided.

Except for the old house in London, which was ruined by a crazy house elf and the location was not good. No one wanted that house and it was left vacant. Now everyone is fighting for the Black family treasury.

Although the Black family treasury is not like the Lestrange family treasury, daughters are allowed to enter, but daughters who are married outside are no longer allowed to enter. When the Dark Lord came to power, he granted Bella special privileges and allowed her to enter the Lestrange family treasury.

.

Not all women, only Bella, can do it, but the women of the Black family still have the right to inherit the Black family property.

If Phileas Black had been the Headmaster before, Severus wouldn't have lived in the cellar. Professor Dorothy's office had been occupied by several Potions Masters and Head of Slytherin.

If the mysterious man becomes the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor as he wishes, he will probably live there, although compared to the manor, the "luxurious office" is too small.

The mysterious man doesn't rely on anyone, and he probably doesn't love anyone. He is very suspicious. Before giving Snape the Dark Mark, he used Legilimency to read Snape's memories. When he saw "Sev" as a child,

” Delighted in the terrible relationship with Tobias, his Muggle father.

In addition to giving Snape advice on potions and dark arts, he spent his "after school hours" talking bad about Muggles. In fact, he would also say how inferior Muggles were in public, but he said it to Snape

It's more "private".

Every time he mentioned "father", the mysterious man's handsome face would become distorted.

The last male of the Gaunt family is also in Azkaban. He has died a long time ago. It is not known that he was ever married, but to say that he had an illegitimate child... this is probably unlikely.

In addition to the name Severus, the mysterious man also called him "Prince", as if Snape's Muggle surname would dirty the noble tongue of the mysterious man.

Once, the mysterious man got excited and said that he had personally killed his father's entire family. He did not feel guilty at all, but was rather proud of himself. However, Severus did not live up to the compliment like others.

Tobia was also kind to his family, which made Eileen always believe that as long as the family is rich, everything will return to the way it was before.

Severus's reaction made the mysterious man suspicious. Although he was scared, Severus did not kneel down and kiss the mysterious man's robe.

He thought that the mysterious man would use the Cruciatus Curse or Legilimency on him, but the mysterious man did not do that.

"Did he let you go?" Pomona asked as they walked along the forest path.

"Since then, I have been practicing Occlumency diligently." Severus looked at the road ahead and said, "Not only do I think it is necessary to do this, but the Dark Lord also thinks that I need to keep his secret."

"What did he teach you?" Pomona asked.

"Some things that can't be taught in books," Severus said calmly, "Maybe I won't need them in my lifetime."

If it's useless, why would the mysterious man give it to you?
