- TV und Film
Hey everyone, welcome to another installment of Harry Potter Theory.
We know that in November of 1945, Dumbledore achieved the impossible by defeating the notorious (and Elder Wand wielding) dark wizard at large- Gellert Grindelwald.
For decades, Grindelwald had been building his following and spreading his poisonous ideologies, disrupting the Wizarding World in a way unlike any other wizard before. His goal was simple: to establish a new world order where wizards would reign supreme over Muggles. His ideologies, promoted segregation, discrimination, and violence, instilling fear and chaos in thw eyes of many. And for a long time, it looked as though Grindelwald’s twisted perspectives were gaining traction..
That is, until Albus Dumbledore stepped in.
We also know that Dumbledore defeated Grindelwald in a duel of ‘Legendary Proportions’ that is widely perceived to have been the most legendary duel of all Wizarding history.
“They say, still, that no Wizarding duel ever matched that between Dumbledore and Grindelwald in 1945. Those who witnessed it have written of the terror and the awe they felt as they watched these two extraordinary wizards do battle. Dumbledore’s triumph, and its consequences for the Wizarding world, are considered a turning point in magical history.”
But one question that’s never quite been properly answered by the history books is…HOW? How did Dumbledore defeat Grindelwald?
