Chapter One
The Boy Who Lived
The chapter starts with description of the Dursley family, who are proud to be "perfectly normal". We learn that Mrs Dursley has a sister, Mrs Potter, but their families haven't met for several years. Both families have sons.
Then the story begins on a "dull, grey Tuesday". Mr Dursley notices a lot of strange things hapenning - owls flying in town, people in cloaks, a strange cat sitting on the wall of his garden, unusual news on TV. The Dursleys go to bed wondering what it all could mean. At night, a tall, thin and very old man appears near their house. It's Albus Dumbledore. The cat turns out to be Professor McGonagall, and the two are professors from Hogwarts, a school of witchcraft and wizardry. Then comes Hagrid, a giant, who brings little Harry Potter. Harry's parents were killed by Lord Voldermort, a dark wizard, but Harry survived and Voldermort's power "somehow broke" .
So little Harry is left asleep on the doorstep of the Dursley's house with a letter written by Dumbledore. The professors and Hagrid go to join the celebrations.
he history of the Shlisselburg Fortress Oreshek goes back almost 700 years. In the vicinity of St. Petersburg, there is hardly another monument with such a rich history, which, as in a mirror, reflected the history of the formation of the Russian state.
During the 17th – 18th centuries, the Oreshek Fortress was at the center of dramatic events in Russian history. In 1612, after a long siege, the fortress was captured by the Swedes, and for 90 years it was under the rule of the Swedish crown. In 1702, the young Tsar Peter I returned the fortress to Russia. In October 1702, Russian troops under the leadership of Boris Petrovich Sheremetyev took the fortress in the course of many hours of bloody assault. Noteburg was renamed into Shlisselburg - "key-city". Bastions and curtains built according to the fortification science of the 18th century remind of the era of Peter in the fortress.
