The Ring Of Power In J. R. Tolkien's The Lord Of The Rings
Lord of the ring; what does the ring represent?
Introduction First of all, im a big lord of the ring fan, and since ive read these books several times and
watched the movies, its not hard to understand that I have been starting to think about
different themes in the book, and if there are some symbolism.
My term paper will be based on my own subjective opinion regarding the subject of whether
or not the ring of power in the modern classic “The lord of the ring”, written by J.R.R Tolkien
repsesents something special or if its just a matter of spicing up the story.
One Ring to Rule Them All. One Ring to Find Them. One Ring to Bring Them All and In The
Darkness Bind Them.

It graduatly lures them to believe that it will help
them, that it will give them something that they dont already have. It decieves them all to
believe it´ll give them power and riches, but theirs only one with the power to control the
ring.
In terms of metaphores you could say that the ring represents todays drugtraid, that sauron
represents the dealers, the drug lords, the ones who gain from the illegal market. And
ofcourse everyone affected by the ring represents the buyers, the ones who get in harms
way.
Now Tolkien probably never drew the paralell to drugs, thats just me, but i do think that the
ring even in his eyes represent something more than what it is in the book.
In “The fellowship of the ring” theres a part were Boromir (one of the nine in “the fellowship
of the ring”) tries to take the ring from frodo by force but in his weakest moment he realizes
what he´s done and ends up dying like a hero, trying to save Merry and Pippin from the
Ürukai.
This tendency to make people act like they normally wouldnt is a quality of the ring.
Its power over peoples will is the source to the mystery of its powers, because even if its
