Whoever reads Harry Potter or Lord of The Ring should also discover the other one too.

Essays‚ Not Rants! 173: But What Does It All Mean? When The Lord of The Rings was first published there was a lot of talk about its relation to the second World War.

(Biblical‚ Celtic‚ Norse‚ and Arthurian mythologies‚ etc.)‚ I believe Biblical held the most significant effect on The Lord of the Rings‚ albeit Finnish/Nordic appears more so than any other.

When I was a little girl‚ I always loved to play pretend. My childhood days were spent being princesses and mermaids‚ doctors and firemen‚ and even the occasional dragon. Although I really‚ really loved being a beautiful fairy queen‚ I often decided to become something quite different--an explorer. This was where I was at my peak.
