Who Is the Dark Arts 4th Year Defense Against

Defence Confronting the Dark Arts (abbreviated as DADA) was a subject taught at Hogwarts Schoolhouse of Witchcraft and Wizardry and Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.^[13] In this course, students studied and learnt how to defend themselves against all aspects of the Nighttime Arts, including dark creatures,^{[21] [24] [25]} curses, hexes and jinxes (dark charms),^[22] and duelling.^[twenty]

The class was a core bailiwick at Hogwarts.^[26] The position of Defence force Against the Dark Arts professor at the school was once rumoured to exist jinxed, as no instructor could hold the post for more than than a yr without suffering an unpleasant fate. Tom Riddle jinxed the position because Albus Dumbledore did not requite him the task when he applied for it.^[two] The fact that no teacher has lasted longer than a year meant that the bailiwick had numerous Professors over the years.^[xx]

Ilvermorny began pedagogy the field of study in the 17th century.^[13] Harry Potter would occasionally deliver Defence Confronting the Dark Arts lectures at Hogwarts in his adulthood.^[27]

Class information

"The Dark Arts, are many, varied, ever-irresolute, and eternal. Fighting them is like fighting a many-headed monster, which, each time a neck is severed, sprouts a caput even fiercer and cleverer than earlier. You are fighting that which is unfixed, mutating, indestructible. Your defences must therefore exist every bit flexible and inventive equally the arts you seek to disengage."

— Professor Snape discussing Defence Against the Night Arts during a sixth year lesson in 1996^[src]

Defense force Confronting the Dark Arts was a required field of study from first twelvemonth to fifth twelvemonth.^{[26] [eighteen]} The curriculum of the class varied greatly depending on what the professor at the time accounted appropriate. Due to the jinx on the education post that was present before Lord Voldemort died, many teachers had been appointed to this mail.^[2]

A third year practical exam, an obstacle course

Tom Riddle twice applied for the Defence Confronting the Dark Arts position, the starting time fourth dimension shortly later on graduation from Hogwarts when he was turned down past Headmaster Armando Dippet, who claimed he was as well young but invited him to re-apply a few years later.

Many years later, after becoming steeped in the Dark Arts and starting to use the title "Lord Voldemort", he visited the school and applied again, this time to Dumbledore. He was refused again. According to Albus Dumbledore, after the second refusal, no Defense force Against the Dark Arts teacher held the post for more than one schoolhouse year. Dumbledore believed that this was due to Voldemort placing a jinx on the position, a belief that was popularly spread throughout the school.^[2]

1994 Defence force Against the Dark Arts lesson on the Unforgivable Curses

The lessons generally had a practical approach, with the cases of competent teachers assertive that when it came to the Nighttime Arts a practical approach was the best style,^{[21] [22] [20]} with theoretical assignments given as homework.^[28] Inadequate teachers, such every bit Quirinus Quirrell and Dolores Umbridge, who were focused on theories solitary, hampered the learning of defences equally they would not be providing students whatsoever practical experiences.^{[18] [29]}

In the 5th year, Ordinary Wizarding Level examinations were taken; as such, students spent their time learning new topics and perhaps revisiting the by 4 years of lessons (depending on the teacher). As role of their Defence Confronting the Nighttime Arts O.West.L., students had to sit a written exam ane of the questions asks to describe the five signs of a werewolf^[thirty] and afterward students must consummate a applied exam of; counter-jinxes, defensive spells, the Boggart-Banishing Spell, and the Patronus Charm (for bonus points).^[31]

To advance to the Northward.E.W.T. course, a student had to get-go achieve a high O.W.L. score of either "Outstanding" or "Exceeds Expectations"; most teachers set up the bar at "Exceeds Expectations".^[32]

As well, due to the grade being directly related to the Night Arts itself, Dark Wizards who wished to teach would typically utilise for this course, notably being Tom Riddle,^[2] Patricia Rakepick,^[33] Quirinus Quirrell,^[34] Bartemius Hunker Junior,^[vii] Dolores Umbridge,^[35] Severus Snape^[9] and Amycus Carrow.^[36]

Vincent Crabbe and Gregory Goyle were ii known students who failed their O.W.L.s in Defence Confronting the Night Arts, for which the following year'due south corresponding teacher, Snape, gave them both detentions.^[37]

The Defence force Against the Dark Arts instructor was too responsible for dealing with whatever Dark Arts related activities that threaten the schoolhouse and its residents, every bit Harry and Ron expected Lockhart to enter the Sleeping room of Secrets and protested confronting his excuse of leaving under an unavoidable urgent telephone call in 1993,^[38] while Snape was assigned to staunch the deadly curse that afflicted Katie Bell in 1996.^[39]

Location and time

Classrooms

Defence Against the Dark Arts classes took place on the first-flooring, Class 104 in the North Belfry and Classroom 3C on the third-floor. In Classroom 3C, an iron chandelier hung from the ceiling, as well equally a dragon's skeleton.^[fourteen] On one terminate of the classroom stood a projector that was activated by magic. Several desks and tables could be constitute in the classroom equally well as some sets of large windows.^[17]

Curriculum

"You have had five teachers in this bailiwick so far, I believe. Naturally, these teachers will all take had their own methods and priorities. Given this confusion I am surprised so many of you scraped an O.W.L. in this subject area. I shall exist even more surprised if all of you manage to continue up with Due north.E.West.T. work, which will be much more avant-garde."

— Professor Snape on the curriculum's instability^[src]

Due to the abiding changing of teachers until the jinx created by Voldemort was broken, the curriculum of Defence Against the Dark Arts varied from year to year.^{[20] [2]} Each teacher had their own priorities and style of didactics, and their own corresponding efficiency proportional to his or her behavior and methods,^[20] such equally Quirinus Quirrell and Dolores Umbridge assertive that theories were enough (which were, in fact, more hindering),^[29] while the more constructive Remus Lupin,^[21] Bartemius Hunker Junior^[22] (then disguised as Alastor Moody with Polyjuice Potion)^[7] and Severus Snape^[twenty] had a more balanced belief in theory and practical defense.

Sixth-years were supposed to be given demonstrations on what illegal curses looked like; it was simply in the 1994–1995 schoolhouse twelvemonth that this was changed to the fourth year.^[22]

Earlier teachers from the 1985–1986 school year for example, were considered highly incompetent and ineffective by most students, and as such, very rarely showed upwardly to teach.^{[40] [41] [42] [43]}

Patricia Rakepick teaching Defence Against the Night Arts to fifth-years

During the 1988–1989 schoolhouse year, the renowned Curse-Breaker Patricia Rakepick was appointed every bit the Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher for that academic year.^[3] She proved herself to be a highly effective teacher of both defensive and offensive magic, having taught her students a broad multifariousness of fascinating and useful topics during her lessons, to compensate her students for having learnt virtually nothing in previous years. She even gave her select students individual lessons in the subject field, teaching them how to duel, in preparation for locating the Cursed Vaults throughout the Castle.^{[three] [44] [45] [46] [47] [48] [49] [50] [51] [52] [53] [54] [55] [56]}

Bill Weasley teaching a group of 6th-years DADA in the evening

During the 1989–1990 school yr, Nib Weasley was given permission past Albus Dumbledore to teach extra-curricular evening classes in this bailiwick to students after graduating the school, due to the ineffectiveness of the didactics that yr.^[57] He continued education these lessons in the 1990–1991 school yr as well.^[58]

Quirrell teaching Defence force Against the Nighttime Arts

In the 1991–1992 school twelvemonth, Quirinus Quirrell taught mainly theoretical noesis,^[59] which, four years afterwards, the Ministry deemed he was the but teacher before Dolores Umbridge to be of acceptable standards. Nevertheless, the Ministry at the fourth dimension was corrupt and paranoid, thus their evaluation of Quirrell's effectiveness was inaccurate.^[29] In fact, while he was a studious intellectual, his practical aspect was severely hampered past his timid and stuttering nature, leading him unable to teach properly, which acquired many students consider his classes to be a joke, and failed to take him seriously.^{[26] [59]}

Lockhart "teaching" Defence Against the Nighttime Arts

In the 1992–1993 school year, Gilderoy Lockhart, fraudulent and incompetent, taught nada to the classes of his respective tenure, aside from nonsensical and unrelated materials, because that he was hired solely by Albus Dumbledore for the purpose of ousting him equally a fraud to the world.^[sixty] His lectures were only storytelling and theatrical re-enactments from his books, since his first applied lesson ended in a disaster that he failed to contain (involving live "freshly caught" Cornish Pixies),^[23] and his idea of homework was for the class to etch a poem of one of his alleged achievements with the offer of a signed copy of his autobiography to the best composer.^[61]

Lockhart simply using the course to promote his uninformative publications, Ron Weasley claimed that the only thing he learned from it was "not to set pixies loose", and expressed his desire to drop out of the course mainly of Lockhart's incompetence.^[62] In late 1992, Lockhart also established a very presently lived and unsuccessful Duelling Club with the aid of Severus Snape, in an attempt to teach students how to defend themselves; the club only had one coming together which resulted in complete chaos.^[63]

Lupin teaching Defence Confronting the Dark Arts

In the 1993–1994 schoolhouse year, Professor Lupin was among the most effective teachers to have taught, every bit many students under his tutelage agreed upon. He taught practical aspects during the lectures, even bringing in several night creatures in captivity as visual aids, and assigned theoretical aspects for homework. He was likewise charismatic, earning the respect of his students, and therefore, making them want to larn from him.^{[21] [24] [25]} Lupin also gave his favourite student Harry Potter additional lessons in how to perform the Patronus Charm, so he could larn to combat Dementors.^[64] Hermione Granger claimed he was the simply teacher among their v (at the fourth dimension) who knew what he was doing.

"Moody" demonstrating the Killing Curse on a spider during a fourth-year lesson

In the 1994–1995 school year, Bartemius Crouch Junior, so disguised as Alastor Moody using Polyjuice Potion,^[7] believed firmly in a practical approach. As such, he taught the quaternary-year form on the Unforgivable Curses that were normally reserved for the sixth year, assertive they need to see information technology sooner.^[22] He even performed the Imperius Curse on all the students as a means to teach them how to resist it.^[65] Although the students constitute him to exist one of the most constructive instructors (despite his truthful identity later being revealed to be a criminal), the Ministry building found the lessons to be very controversial, and expressed their potent disapproval.^[18]

During the 1995–1996 school twelvemonth, the Minister for Magic, Cornelius Fudge, had deluded himself with the bizarre conspiracy theory that Headmaster Albus Dumbledore was using the students to create a private army of immature witches and wizards to overthrow the Ministry.^[66] As such, he implanted Dolores Umbridge to become the teacher of the Defense force Against the Night Arts classes, which he believed to be the chief source of training (e.g. defensive spells) for Dumbledore's would-exist soldiers.^[xviii]

Umbridge "teaching" Defence Against the Dark Arts

Umbridge supplied a syllabus based entirely on the theory of conflict rather facing them, all of which was just reading out of the textbook, believing that this would be sufficient in passing the examinations. Furthermore, she herself did not teach the students, as she had them read the textbooks quietly in class and refused to answer their questions whatever more than than to silence them.^{[18] [29]} This misguided belief deprived the students on whatsoever useful lessons equally even the theories are inaccurate, thus leading to the formation on Dumbledore's Ground forces, which taught more practical defence that students from all grades plant more useful.^[67] Umbridge would later claim that the spells Harry taught were accounted by the Ministry building inappropriate for students at their ages.^[68]

In the 1996–1997 school year, Professor Snape taught his classes to respect the Dark Arts every bit a dangerous and e'er-evolving opponent, and that their defences must be as versatile as the foul arts they seek to disengage. He imposed a darker atmosphere in the classroom by dimmer lighting and macabre portraits in lodge to permit the students to have a firmer agreement of the sufferings the Night Arts tin can bring. Hermione concluded that Snape's ideals were very much the same as what Harry Potter expressed during the Dumbledore's Army recruitment meeting: not but memorising a bunch of spells, but to understand and react appropriately to the situation at mitt.^[20] As with Lupin and Crouch, Snape taught practically during the lectures, and assigned theories for homework.

Every bit with every other course that required practical spells, sixth-years were taught nonverbal spell usage,^[xx] and were expected to use them in class from and then on.^[69]

In the 1997–1998 school twelvemonth, the course was inverse to Nighttime Arts during Voldemort'south takeover of the school. It was taught by the Death Eater Amycus Carrow, who taught students how to perform the Unforgivable Curses, with a item accent with ordering students to practise the Cruciatus Curse on disobedient students,^[36] forth with the summoning of Fiendfyre.^[70]

First year

"The form anybody had really been looking forward to was Defense force Against the Dark Arts, simply Quirrell'south lessons turned out to be a bit of a joke. His classroom smelled strongly of garlic, which everyone said was to ward off a vampire he'd met in Romania and was afraid would be coming back to get him one of these days."

— DADA lessons with Quirrell every bit the professor^[src]

Second yr

"At present — exist warned! It is my job to arm yous against the foulest creatures known to wizardkind! You may find yourselves facing your worst fears in this room. Know only that no harm can befall you whilst I am here. All I ask is that you remain at-home. I must ask you non to scream. It might provoke them."

— Lockhart introducing Cornish Pixies^[src]

3rd twelvemonth

"Professor Lupin had complied the nigh unusual exam whatever of them had always taken; a sort of obstacle course outside in the sun, where they had to wade across a deep paddling pool containing a Grindylow, cross a series of potholes full of Ruby-red Caps, squish their manner across a patch of marsh while ignoring misleading directions from a Hinkypunk, then climb into an old torso and battle with a new Boggart."

— The third twelvemonth Defense force Against the Dark Arts examination in 1994^[src]

Students during the 1993–1994 schoolhouse year, under the significantly loftier quality of education under Remus Lupin, learnt about numerous dark creatures and how to handle them appropriately.^{[21] [24] [25] [77] [78]}

Fourth yr

"And then — straight into it. Curses. They come in many strengths and forms. Now, according to the Ministry of Magic, I'm supposed to teach you countercurses and leave information technology at that. I'm non supposed to show you what illegal Night curses await like until yous're in the sixth year. You're not supposed to exist erstwhile enough to deal with it till and then. Merely Professor Dumbledore'southward got a higher stance of your fretfulness, he reckons you tin cope, and I say, the sooner you know what yous're upward against, the better."

— Barty Crouch Jnr (disguised every bit Alastor Moody) on his approach of the subject^[src]

Students witnessed the 3 Unforgivable Curses used on spiders.^[22] They were likewise given lessons on resisting the Imperius Curse, in which Harry Potter was the only one successful in his class.^[65] These demonstrations were during the 1994-1995 school year but and the Unforgivable Curses are usually covered in the 6th twelvemonth N.E.W.T. class.^[22]

Fifth year

1988–1989 school year

"I am not merely going to testify you how to defend yourselves against the Dark Arts, only how to attack the Dark Arts. You volition receive the finest education from someone who has actually faced the worst that the Night Arts has to offer. They say this position is cursed, only breaking curses is what I do best."

— Patricia Rakepick's arroyo to pedagogy the subject^[src]

Patricia Rakepick was the Professor in this subject field for the 1988–1989 schoolhouse year, in which she taught her fifth year students a wide multitude of highly interesting and useful topics, carefully balancing both theoretical and practical knowledge and skills.

1995–1996 school year

"Well now, your education in this subject has been rather disrupted and fragmented, hasn't information technology? The constant changing of teachers, many of whom do not seem to take followed any Ministry-approved curriculum, has unfortunately resulted in your being far below the standard we would wait to see in your O.W.L. year. You will be pleased to know, however, that these bug are now to be rectified. We volition be following a carefully structured, theory-centred, Ministry-approved course of defensive magic this year."

— Dolores Umbridge'due south alibi for depriving students of practical defence^[src]

Sixth year

"You will at present divide... into pairs. I partner will try to jinx the other without speaking. The other will attempt to repel the jinx in equal silence. Deport on."

— A North.East.W.T. lesson on nonverbal spells^[src]

Official curriculum

"I've decided to visit Hogwarts from time to time to teach yous new defensive spells. This is all informal, of grade. I'm not replacing your professor, just tutoring."

— Bill Weasley explaining his tutoring lessons to sixth years^[src]

During the 1989–1990 school yr, Bill Weasley was given permission by Albus Dumbledore to requite evening classes in this subject field after graduating Hogwarts, due to the ineffectiveness of the pedagogy that schoolhouse year.^[57]

Seventh yr

Known professors

Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry

"There is a new Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher, and that position is now every bit rubber as the other teaching posts at Hogwarts, since Voldemort's death broke the jinx that kept a Defense Against the Night Arts professor from remaining for more than a yr."

— J. Yard. Rowling stated the jinx on the DADA post has been lifted^[src]

• Unidentified 19th-century Defense force Against the Dark Arts professor (c. 1890) ^[98]
• Galatea Merrythought (?–1945) ^[2]
• Unidentified professor (1984–1985) ^[40]
• Unidentified professor (1985–1986) ^[41]
• Unidentified professor (1986–1987) ^[42]
• Unidentified professor (1987–1988) ^[43]
• Unidentified professor (1989–1990) ^[57]
• Unidentified professor (1998–?) ^[99]

During the time between the get-go of Voldemort's jinx and when it was eventually broken, in that location was at least one professor per year. Therefore, between c. 1965 and 1990 (the year before Harry began studying at Hogwarts) there could exist around twenty-5 dissimilar professors in the position.^[100]

Severus Snape served as a substitute teacher during the 1993–1994 school year, when Remus Lupin was feeling sick.^[79]

Harry Potter occasionally gave lectures on the subject area.^[27]

Grades

• All Aurors since information technology is a compulsory N.E.W.T.-level qualification; therefore O.Due west.L. must take been accomplished before that.^[32]

Behind the scenes

• When J. K. Rowling was asked why Dumbledore would not give Severus Snape the Defence Against the Dark Arts job, Rowling responded that Dumbledore believed that pedagogy Defence Against the Dark Arts would bring out Snape'due south worst side,^[106] though Dumbledore finally relented in Harry's sixth year.^[107] Snape admitted to Bellatrix Lestrange that reason during their chat in Spinner's End.^[108]
• Rowling has also revealed that after Amycus Carrow was the Dark Arts teacher, a permanent teacher took the post because Voldemort'due south jinx over the job was lifted.
• Whilst it is known that Dumbledore did not wish Professor Snape to teach DADA for fear of relapsing into his Death Eater ways, it is as well possible that (since the subject had been jinxed) he was too thinking of Snape'due south physical well-being (non to the lowest degree of all because of how much of importance he could have been, and was, in the long run). Despite Dumbledore's fear, however, Snape did not truly return to his old means when granted the position he sought for, though he did teach the lessons with a sense of passion for the Nighttime Arts.
• Each Defence Against the Night Arts instructor attacked (or attempted to attack) Harry.
  • Quirrell tried to strangle Harry and jinxed his broom during a Quidditch game.
  • Lockhart attempted to erase his memories
  • Lupin went after him as a werewolf (although he alone out of all the others would never accept attacked Harry if he had been in his homo class)
  • Barty Crouch Jnr (bearded as Moody) tried to impale him.
  • Umbridge physically assaulted him and threatened him with the Cruciatus Curse (and had previously sent Dementors to assail him, though this was before she taught the subject).
  • Snape attacked Harry in retaliation for Harry trying to expletive him during the Battle of the Astronomy Tower.
  • Ironically, Amycus Carrow, who taught Dark Arts instead of Defence Against the Dark Arts, was attacked by Harry Potter subsequently Amycus had insulted Minerva McGonagall.
• Dolores Umbridge was the only female Defense force Against the Dark Arts instructor in the series besides Galatea Merrythought; Galatea was not seen throughout the series, only mentioned.
• The vi professors of this subject who taught Harry each had a dark surreptitious that he did not larn until virtually the end of their corresponding school years:
  • Quirrell was serving Voldemort and was possessed past him.
  • Lockhart was a cowardly fraud who covertly stole the achievements of others.
  • Lupin was a werewolf.
  • Moody was actually Barty Crouch Jnr, an escaped Decease Eater.
  • Umbridge was the one who sent the Dementors that attacked Harry and Dudley.
  • Snape was the one who had reported the prophecy to Voldemort and was the Half-Blood Prince.
• During his tenure as Potions Chief, Severus Snape just accepted students who achieved an 'Outstanding' on their OWLs into his NEWT-level Potions classes. However, when Snape became the Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher in the 1996–1997 school year, students who achieved 'Exceeds Expectations' were still allowed to have the NEWT-level DADA classes.
• The only book to take twice been assigned for this subject is The Dark Forces: A Guide to Cocky-Protection.
• Most of the Defence Against the Dark Arts teachers in Harry's six years at Hogwarts followed a similar pattern: each (with the exception of Quirrell and Snape).
  • They were an entirely new instructor; each was called out of necessity, due to the loss of the previous teacher and the absence of other applicants
  • each meets Harry earlier he arrives at Hogwarts in the corresponding year (with the exception of Mad-Center Moody, who was only mentioned in passing, although Harry had unknowingly encountered Barty Crouch Jnr at the Quidditch World Loving cup)
  • and each physically (or magically) attacks Harry during schoolhouse term, either intentionally or accidentally, every bit in the case of Remus Lupin.
• In Harry Potter and the Social club of the Phoenix, when discussing who their new Defence force Confronting the Dark Arts teacher would be, Harry said that the teachers didn't have much luck: "One sacked, i dead, 1 lost his retention, and ane was locked in a trunk for nine months," referring to Lupin, Quirrell, Lockhart, and Moody, respectively; this isn't truthful, all the same, because Lupin resigned rather than was fired. Also, Crouch Jnr, the de facto teacher for Harry's fourth year, suffered the Dementor's Kiss.
• Quirinus Quirrell is the only Defence force Against The Dark Arts instructor known to accept died during the twelvemonth he gave the subject field.
• According to Pottermore, from the best to worst Defense Against the Nighttime Arts teacher during the 7 years of Harry's instruction:
  1. Remus Lupin, for his fair, popular and effective teaching methods.
  2. Severus Snape, for his effective, qualified however strict methods.
  3. Gilderoy Lockhart, for his fraudulence, education about himself more than almost defence force.
  4. Barty Crouch, for his fidelity with Voldemort, despite his actual teaching effectiveness.
  5. Amycus Carrow, for turning the class into just Nighttime Arts and his brutal discipline methods.
  6. Dolores Umbridge, for depriving the class of any practicality and her scarring disciplinary methods.
  7. Quirinus Quirrell, for having Voldemort at the back of his caput.
• In Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery, if players take Jacob's sibling to the O.W.L. through an optional side quest, they will definitely gain at to the lowest degree an A, even if they fail to answer every question and perform any defensive spells.
• In the early video games, creatures such as Burn down Crabs, Burn Abode Salamanders (which are canonically small, non-aggressive lizards) and Streelers are covered in Defence Against the Nighttime Arts classes. However, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them confirms that these creatures are non night creatures, nor very unsafe, and Burn Crabs (a highly protected species) and Streelers (domesticated as pets) are in fact taught and handled in Intendance of Magical Creatures instead, pregnant their inclusion on the Defense Confronting the Night Arts curriculum is not canon. Several games also depict gnomes as existence covered in the course, which seems rather odd considering they are simply harmless (admitting abrasive) garden pests, and are not considered nighttime or dangerous.
• Also in the early video games, spells such as the Softening Amuse or Seize and pull charm are taught in this grade, despite these spells seemingly non having whatever defensive or offensive qualities. It is likely these spells were taught in this form purely for game-play reasons.
• In LEGO Harry Potter: Years one-4, in Gilderoy Lockhart's first Defence force Against the Dark Arts lesson, Lockhart teaches his students the Freezing Charm for combating Pixies.^[83] However, this lesson cannot exist considered canon, since information technology fundamentally contrasts this lesson's depiction in the second book.
