Lord of the rings
Usually, when dealing with a piece of writing we will soon discover that reality influences it. What I mean is that the author is immerse in asocial, political, cultural and economic circumstances (within many other types of them) which will have a notorious effect on his production. It happens very often, I would say in most of the cases, that, conscious or unconsciously, personal experiences, ideologies and judgements have their way out from the writer's mind through his work. Something that distinguishes The Lord of the Rings series is that this factual reference is very difficult to establish. From my point of view, John Ronald Reuel Tolkien manages to deal with issues that have to do with the deepest human nerve and its essence but without getting punctual so the novel becomes universally appealing and transcendental.This combination of an ample span but a profound sight makes for the admiration these books inspire. Love, loyalty, conflict between good and evil, friendship, power and many other aspects of human life are analysed through these pages and with such capability that one cant do anything but clap and admit that something great has derived from this man's work. They won't be changing for millennia so Tolkien has
To start with, there is a history that backs up the plot and reaches thousands of years before. The elves, on the contrary, reveal splendour and glory, they are majestic and that is beautifully reflected in their language: names like Glorfindel (p208), Elbereth (p78) and Celeborn (p344) are clear samples of this concept. Although this feature might become also a major inconvenient when trying to give the text a thorough analysis given that it is more difficult to understand Tolkien's motivations and intentions a closer look to something critical in the novel as the creation of a parallel universe and to the writer's greatest passion some conclusions can be made to get a nearer idea of Eru's or Iluvatar's making. In the same way, these disgusting creatures take others razes' languages and modify them into nasty codes, they made their own brutal jargons, hardly sufficient for their needs, perverting complex cultural legacies that had taken centuries to be created to their own liking. As their malice and filthiness made them hate each other (even those from their kind) there were as many dialects as groups or tribes, thus leaving them with the only option of using the Common Speech to communicate between themselves. We are told at some point of the saga that the orcs are a horrid deviation of the elves, beings that derive from the beautiful beings designed by Eru who are nothing but an insult to their original state. We could mention some of them: the inexhaustible loyalty Sam exhibits, courage and dignity seen through Aragorn's eyes, Gandalf's wisdom, Merry and Pipin's unbreakable friendship, etc. Bibliography:The Lord of the Rings, Harper Collins, Great Britain, August 1995(all the page references in this essay correspond to this edition.
