Saruman

injuries orcs inflicted. Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli then seek to find the absent Merry and Pippin who were apprehended by orcs. On their trek, they stumble upon the mighty Riders of Rohan. The leader of the Riders, Éomer states that the grand wizard Saruman has become corrupt and that he has been plotting a war near Isengard. Earlier, Merry and Pippin barely absconded the orc encampment that Aragorn and company would reach later.…

he is now Gandalf the White. Theoden winces at the sight, panicking as if he were not himself. “I will draw you Saruman as poison is drawn from a wound.” Gandalf reveals that the king is not himself due to the white wizard, Saruman controlling him through Grima’s snakey tongue. “Aghh” Theoden groans as Gandalf presses him with magic, drawing Saruman out. “If I go, Theoden dies!” Saruman attempts to survive through a lie. “You did not kill me! You will not kill him!” “Rohan is…

corrupts the best.” The corruption that comes from power can be seen in many characters, from no corruption in Tom Bombadil, to some in Frodo, Boromir, and even more in Gollum. Those with more power to begin with are more likely to be corrupted, and Saruman is a great example of this. In Fellowship of the Ring by J.R.R Tolkien, power causes addiction and corruption in many of the characters, regardless of their intentions, showing the danger that power possesses. To start off, Tom Bombadil was a…

Ignorance and unbalance is undermined by honour and certainty of the team. “Playing the leadership role, Aragorn tells Theoden to ride out with them” and meet them (Gandalf and the warriors of Rohan) for Rohan, for his people. Theoden restores honour in himself as King of Rohan at the wearing grasp of defeat by riding out with Aragorn, “Yes, The Horn of Helm Hammerhand will sound in the deep, one last time!”. Regardless of the way individuals are parted from one another, they cleverly use their…

The Simarillion. During WWII, I wrote what later became known as my most famous works, Lord of the Rings. I used my experiences from the war; but, contrary to what some believe, Hitler and Stalin had nothing to do with the characters of Sauron and Saruman. The ring did not symbolize the atomic bomb. Admittedly, it followed the rise of the great evil that enveloped…

Good vs. Evil which is Right? Which is Wrong? What defines good and evil? What makes one good or evil? Is Sauron really Evil just because he is the dark lord? It is perceived that in order to be good there needs to be a of display high morals. It is also believed by a vast amount of people that to be "evil" is to be bad, but the definition of evil is considered to be of lack of morals. In many wars, "good" and "evil" are just perspective propaganda. During war it is easier to fight the enemy if…

of the Uruks being spawned from the mud came from Tolkien's old description of orcs being "bred from the heats and slimes of the earth.” Also from Wikipedia all of the Uruk-hai are born from the dark and damp the are creatures of the night until Saruman digs them out of the earth and releases them to rain terror on the land. Again I can not even begin to explain how much importance there is to have the villains be dark creatures of the…

hobbits used hallucinogenic drugs and this may have started the movement to reading the story. The environmentalism view of Tolkien can be seen in The Lord of the Rings, when Saruman destroys forests to create his army. Gandalf and Aragorn then lead the forces of good including those who lived in the forests to destroy the evil Saruman. He also wrote about feminism in The Lord of the Rings. Lady Éowyn of Rohan was struggling to overcome the limits of patriarchal society. For most of history,…

Pippin Met an Ent named Treebeard. After being in the forest for a while the two hobbits and the Ents defeated the forces of Isengard. The fellowship met with Merry & Pippin at the gates of Isengard having defeated Isengard Gandalf was talking to Saruman when a stone called a Palantir fell from a window. That night Merry had looked into the Palantir leading Orcs to their location.…

In the nature of men the desirer to do good is necessarily for the good of others. It’s somewhat appropriate to desirer good in any situations with a clear purpose. Having absolute power isn’t a bad thing to over come the enemies in battle. It great to know the outcome before it take place, but the desirer to have power can be side tact in Tolkien reading. The lord of rings displays some interesting tale of corruption with great power. It gives examples of the temptation throughout the reading…
