That is a question that has been in my mind. In my perfectly honest opinion, there isn't really a value, especially since he did not intend for parallels to be drawn. It seems that many people...

Child of the 7th Age, I never thought of it that way. It never occurred to me that his sailing West was probably the best choice for him. Though now that I muse about it, it does fit how Tolkien...

Sure, a dwarf would've made a pretty good ring-bearer. But would the elves have let that happen? Considering the usual animosity between elves and dwarves, I doubt that the elves would permit a...

I don't think modern medicine is a very good example of how elves are different than men, because aren't they the experts of Middle-Earth medicine? One example would be Elrond healing Frodo's wound...

I know I've heard that Tolkien based Middle-Earth on a prehistoric Europe. But does it really matter? As we read the books, it is real in our minds so its supposed location (place or time) in...

The elves are immortal. Therefore, they have all the time they could want to try out new things. Perhaps they seem to avoid change to humans, but humans don't live anywhere near as long to see that...

Oh, my, do I feel overwhelmed! I'm a college freshman and I just finished reading LotR for the first time this past week. I must confess I didn't start reading it until I decided that I wanted to...

Just a note that according to the "Lord of the Rings Official Movie Guide," in their interview of Orlando Bloom, he says Legolas is 2,931 years old. I have no idea how they arrive at that number,...

I recently finished reading LotR for the first time and I have not yet read the Silmarillion or any of the background works. Even before I read LotR, I had heard that some people think it is an...

Question Did Frodo complete his quest?

I just finished reading LotR for the first time and I have a nagging question: did Frodo really complete his quest to destroy the Ring? Sure, the Ring ends up in the fires of Mount Doom, but I got...
