As Quatro Grandes Casas de Hogwarts são baseadas nos Quatro Temperamentos?

15

Existe alguma informação sobre cânones, citações ou entrevistas com J.K. Rowling sugere que as casas de Hogwarts são (vagamente) baseadas nos quatro temperamentos: colérico, sanguíneo, melancólico e fleumático?

Não os temperamentos, mas os quatro elementos. J.K. Rowling menciona isso em referência à Sonserina:

JKR: Probably. I hear you. It is the tradition to have four houses, but in this case, I wanted them to correspond roughly to the four elements. So Gryffindor is fire, Ravenclaw is air, Hufflepuff is earth, and Slytherin is water, hence the fact that their common room is under the lake. So again, it was this idea of harmony and balance, that you had four necessary components and by integrating them you would make a very strong place. But they remain fragmented, as we know.
