Whoever reads Harry Potter or Lord of The Ring should also discover the other one too. Both are the same basic “hero’s journey” archetype with two great main character which I really love: Harry Potter and Frodo Baggins. There are certain similarities between them which interested me a lot. Like Frodo‚ Harry is an English orphan; and both of them discover their destinies as reluctant heroes after a birthday: Harry after his own while Frodo after Bilbo’s 111th birthday party. Since then‚ Harry entered

Emma Conway 2 December 2011 Period 1 Similar yet Different The Lord of the Rings is a memorable story and is often the base idea for scenes in many different movies. One of the movies that play on different scenes from The Lord of the Rings is Harry Potter. Similar scenes from The Lord of the Rings can be seen in many scenes from the Harry Potter book and move series.

“All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us‚” (LotR 51). Death is a necessary evil‚ an end to life. It’s what we do with our life that is most important. In Tolkien’s “Lord of the Rings‚” mortals who acquire immortality end up facing many harsh realities. In the creation of Middle Earth‚ Iluvatar creates the Ainur (Holy Ones) and the Children of Iluvatar. The Ainur are the first‚ and the most powerful beings created by Iluvatar; they are immortal.

Tolkien has experienced a resurgence of interest in the last two decades-in a large part thanks to Peter Jackson’s film adaptations of both The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit. However I do not wish to look at the movies‚ or indeed at any of Tolkien’s more prevalent work. I wish to focus on his poetry‚ the poems woven into the narrative of his popular novels (including revised versions published in The History of Middle-earth series) as well as his stand-alone pieces that may have little to do with

theologians have sought to determine whether evil is a polarized and present force or whether evil is the absence or falling away from good. The Lord of the Rings is not just a story about the conflict between good and evil‚ but rather is a story that demonstrates the multifaceted nature of both. In the beginning of The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring it is easy to relegate evil to a dualistic force in the world‚ that characters are either inherently good or inherently evil. However‚ as the
