The Lord of the Rings / The Hobbit (4 Volumes)

Product Information

In some ways, his central, conflicted role resembles Eddison's Lord Gro, whose work inspired Tolkien. After the book was finished, it was shared and landed itself in Gondor, where our favourite King resides. Not only does Tolkien put forth a vision of chaste, humble, 'everyman' heroes who persevere against temptation through piety, he also presents a world of dualistic good and evil, of eternal, personal morality, prototypical of the Christian worldview, particularly the post-Miltonic view. Recently re-bound in green half morocco, with raised bands, gilt titles to spine, matching cloth over boards, and green endpapers. Frodo's end is a bit sad in that light, I believe we can fulfill our missions and yet still enjoy the fruits.

You get a true feel for the scale and even the politics of such a creation by journeying through it with different companions, each with a different purpose. In which case (as I believe) salvation from ruin will depend on something apparently unconnected: the general sanctity (and humility and mercy) of the sacrificial person. Contrarily, those who have followed in his footsteps since have tended to be inspired by a desire to imitate him.Tolkien s classic masterpieces behind the films, in this gorgeous pocket-sized, leatherette-bound box set the perfect gift for Lord of the Rings devotees. The Hobbit is a first account narration from Bilbo himself BUT there were earlier editions of the book that had Bilbo and Gollum’s conversation occur differently . The horses in general are a particular beautiful part of the films, except that tons of them died during the making of the movies of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. Kuduk becomes ‘hobbits’ and Maura, Ban, Razar, and Kali become Sam, Frodo, Merry and Pippin (I laughed so hard when I read this) and other words into digestible words in English. Tolkien's 'Middle-Earth' is a vast mine of treasures and knowledge, its roots delving deep into folklore, mythology and language, and The Hobbit is an ideal introduction to this richly imagined world, which was more fully and complexly realised in 'The Rings' series.

Each had a purpose, even if they didn't serve the story, they were part of a grand and strange world. The book did have very minor little scratches but I don't really care abt that, I feel like it adds to them.Including all sorts of adventures with Gandalf, Gollum, dragons and monsters, in the quest to destroy the One Ring! Tolkien was as surprised at the arrival of a servant of the devil as were his fictional, frightened Hobbits. The English-speaking world is divided into those who have read The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit and those who are going to read them. While there are have been plenty of hugely popular series in recent years—Fifty Shades of Grey, Harry Potter, The Hunger Games, and Divergent come to mind…the series is also a hallmark of literary history.

I love the Peter Jackson Hobbit movies, though even I think it was a stretch making three of them out of one little book. Says that Frodo and Sam later on learned the truth of what happened and made the necessary changes in their narration of Lord of the Rings.
