Arts & Humanities - 21 December 2006

A man (a king, i think) and his faithful dog regularly take walks in the woods. But one day the dog runs off and doesn't come back. The man assumes he will be able to find his own way home, but upon returning, he finds the door open and his bedroom where his baby daughter was sleeping had been trashed, the baby's crib had been overturned and there was blood everywhere. Standing on his bed was his dog, also covered in blood, and was panting and wagging his tail. The man assumes the dog had got in and killed his child, and draws his sword and kills the dog. He collapses on the bed with grief because he has lost his child and his dog in the same morning. After a while he hears something that seemed to be coming from a bundle of sheets by his dog's feet and discovers it is infact his baby, and as he stands up he also notices something by his feet that he didn't see coming in. A dead wolf.

Harry Potter Question??

OK. I was rereading HBP last night before I went to bed, and something kind of disturbs me. In the section where Harry and Dumbledore are viewing Slughorn's memory about telling Tom Riddle about what horcruxes are, Slughorn tells Tom that it's a banned subject at Hogwarts, and that DD is "particularly fierce" about it. This gave me the impression that DD already knew what horcruxes were. If this is the case, what exactly is the significance of Harry retrieving Sluggy's memory? I don't understand why Harry would go to all that trouble retrieving the memory if DD already knows what a horcrux is. It makes more sense that he would just tell Harry. (We already know that Sluggy gave Tom info on them, why else would he have modified his memory? DD could have just filled Harry (and us) in.)
