CHAPTER

The Etymology of Community

i'm wondering if you can help me reframe with this new definition of community. Community means like the com it does mean with or together. The munus or the munitas at the end actually has the sense of obligation, office or duty. So act a duty you hold in common, or an obligation you hold inCommon. That's how you can get to the more generous reading of what these other hogwart students are doing. I think that there are a lot of things that are complicated about community.
