The Lord of the Rings The Fellowship of the Ring 1. I chose to read this book because I have always been a fan of the LOTR series and I loved reading the Hobbit, so I felt it was time to read the trilogy 2. The story is set all across Middle Earth which is the fictional realm of LOTR. The story begins in the Shire where Frodo sets off on his adventure. They then travel to Bree, Rivendale, through many forests, valleys, rivers, plains, to Moria / the Bridge of Khazad-Dum to Lorien and finally down

The past is represented by a poem from J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring: All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost.

In the film Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001) I will demonstrate that the main message is how meaningful friendships are and how those friendships will help you when you need it the most. I will use Frodo’s journey with the “Fellowship of the Ring” to validate this claim by analysing Richard Gombrich theory of cognitive and affective beliefs. Moreover, I will use Arnold van Gennep’s theory of the rites of passage to illustrate the creation and meaning of Frodo’s friendships. I

Such as Boromir, many of the hobbits become addicted to the Ring because they want to use it for selfish reasons. Boromir only sees the advantages the Ring can bring him because the addiction controls his thoughts by causing him to believe that the Ring is the only way to feel relief. When not sure what to do with the Ring, Boromir suggests to Frodo that “the Great Ring has come
of the best examples of discipleship is in The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. You see many examples of discipleship in this movie or book, whatever your preference.

The Fellowship of the Ring is a novel with many unique cultures, languages, and mythical beings that were either created by author J.R.R. Tolkien or influenced from classical mythology. Tolkien was inspired to write the novel due to his desire for it to serve as a poetic legend that he felt England lacked. Tolkien expresses despair over the loss of culture and language throughout the novel by allowing the elves to represent culture, disappearing from the Middle Earth, like it was from his world.
“One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them, One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them,” (55). The One Ring controls Gollum, Bilbo, Boromir, and Frodo in attempts to return to Sauron, Its Creator, the Lord of the Rings, and the utmost evil present in J.R.R. Tolkien’s novels. But the Ring never achieves Its goal because each character possesses a unique set of skills which resist the evil temptations of the Ring. Gollum is the first victim of the Ring, with no knowledge of Its
In Fellowship of the Ring, a young gardener, Sam Gamgee, rose from his normal life to do the extraordinary by being a loyal retainer on the most important quests in his history.

Tolkien, living in an age of war and industrialism which led to the creation of this book, was the author of this great novel. He was inspired by his wife Edith and how he had suffered from the
Caleb Stucky Mrs. Lyons English 9 21 February 2015 Loyalty in The Fellowship of the Ring: The Importance of Character to Life’s Quest In the midst of the XXIst century, loyalty seems to have practically disappeared.

He goes on to say that, “Rebellion and defiance
of the Fellowship of the Ring may become a little clearer when we define courage. Courage is defined by Dictionary.com as: the quality of mind or spirit that enables a person to face difficulty, danger, pain, etc. without fear; bravery. The idea that the ability to face danger, pain and difficulty without fear is in everyone, including fat hobbits, is a profound statement. However, I believe it to be true, nonetheless.
