In J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings, the Riders of Rohan, or Rohirrim, are horse loving Men who live on the plains of Middle-earth. The Rohirrim’s initial respect for the land contrasts their later ambivalent and destructive use of it, therefore reinforcing the need for both biblical utilitarian and morally intrinsic perspectives when forming a sustainable community. While The Riders of Rohan use and protect the land at first in an agrarian-based society, they grow indifferent to both…

Seeing a half-human, half-horse in real life would be a great experience. A centaur would be that creature and he would have the head and torso of a human but the body of a horse. In Harry Potter the centaur places the role of having to save Harry and keep the woods in order like from Voldemort trying to stay alive by drinking unicorn blood. A centaur is a savior and anyone would be lucky to have one around because they’re so magical and are good protectors. The unicorn that Voldemort was…

The phrase “burden of responsibility” sounds like an undertaking that is intimidating and to be avoided at all costs. In the movie The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (LOTR), Peter Jackson illustrates his belief that when an individual is shouldered with a burden of responsibility, they can attain positive results. What could happen when individuals are shouldered with a burden of responsibility is depicted through the protagonists in the film. In the beginning of the film when…

What if your mentor suddenly left? This is what Gandalf did to Bilbo. He was a mentor but at the same time, he was his friend. Bilbo had to adjust to his new role as a leader and learn determination, courage, and intelligence. I realized that Bilbo had a lot of determination. One example of determination is when Bilbo stole the ring from Gollum. Gollum is a weird creature who is pretty rich. He gets a lot of birthday presents and one of them was an invisible ring. Gollum tried to eat Bilbo just…

In chapters six and seven, Bilbo comes to an understanding of the rings power and becomes adept of the ring and masters its use. When retelling the story of how he escaped from the goblins and Gollum, Bilbo fails to mention the ring and keeps it a secret. The other dwarves begin to respect him after he tells his tale; their growing respect differs from the attitude they had toward Bilbo at the beginning of the story, when they only tolerated him for Gandalf's sake. After the group resumes their…

The Hobbit was an epic fantasy written by the J.R.R. Tolkien. It demonstrates the brotherhood between thirteen dwarves and a Hobbit. Within the story, the characters go on a quest to reconquer their land back from an evil dragon named Smaug. In the beginning of the story, a great wizard named Gandalf knocks on Bilbo’s door with a band of homeless dwarves.

In the book, “The Hobbit” by J.R.R Tolkien, a short Hobbit named Bilbo Baggins, had a very ordinary life and strayed away from adventure. A wizard, Gandalf, and a tremendous amount of dwarves came to Bagginses hole and hatched a plan to take down a dragon named Smaug. After reading a little more of this book, I predicted that Mr. Baggins will go on this quest and this adventure will change Mr. Bagginses lifestyle forever. My first prediction is, that Mr. Baggins will go on this adventure. I…

The story has some really great characters and is also written in a very interesting manner. “Also, went on Gandalf, “I forgot to mention that with the map went a key, a small and curious key. Here it is!” Keep it safe!” (Tolkien: Chapter 9-10).These words make us understand that Gandalf had great confidence in Bilbo as he gives him significant responsibility during the entire war that these dwarves have with the goblins. Gandalf is also the main character that brings in Bilbo as the hero by…

What would happen if a legendary man who is barely ever seen forced a hobbit to go on an adventure with 13 dwarfs?

All Bilbo has ever known is how to be a hobbit. Hobbits are very ordinary, quiet, peaceful, and fat little people who enjoy their life being simple, not adventurous. Hobbits have patience and…
