Which is the most unique lesson/character in the Lord of the Rings and why?

Question

Apart from the usual and most obvious like Frodo (character) or bravery (lesson).

Also any 'hidden' things u learn from the book/movie.

Answer 1

The two lessons I took from it and found their storylines important were: a) Friends blossoming out of races that usually distrust each other - Legolas and Gimli. b) Love occurring when/where you least expect it - Faromir and Eoweyn.

Answer 2

While Frodo redefines the fantasy convention of the unlikely hero saving the day. Sauron creates the archetype on which over a half century of "Dark Lords" are based. We never actually meet the character face to face but his influence and his personality dictate the course of the novel in a manner often imitated, but seldom rivaled in literature and movies.

Answer 3

Dear Grey,

Although perhaps only aware of it in literary or religious terms, there is a fascinating discussion of equity in law running throughout Lord of the Rings. Equity would occur, for example, when the written letter of the law is ignored or subdued to a greater good.

One excellent example of this is when Beregond, who killed Denethor's servants in Minas Tirith in order to save the life of Faramir, is brought before newly-crowned Aragorn, the King. Aragorn, by right, could have Beregond put to death for killing where killing was forbidden (in the court of Minas Tirith). However, Aragorn remits all penalty for the killing, because it was done out of Beregond's love and desire to prevent the servants from killing Faramir. Tolkien notes that Beregond perceives, "the mercy and justice of the King."

There are many other such examples of equity in LOTR.

Answer 4

i could want to furnish a sparkling answer detailing the version of mediums and the properties of subjective determination... yet I genuinely have homework due the following day and should no longer additionally be at right here. So all i provides you is a private opinion: Tolkien. playstation . this question's been asked infinite cases. learn Dune to Sesame street or some thing.

Answer 5

Faramir...he was my favorite character, because he boasted he wouldn't touch the ring if he got a chance. Then he found out he had a chance to get the ring, and he refused the chance to take the ring back to Gondor and win his father's esteem. I loved him for it, and I cried in the movie, when the director decided to change that. A little extreme, I know, but I was so sad.

Answer 6

My two favorite characters are Eowyn and Legolas. Eowyn is so full of determination and will power. I look up to her a lot; you have to admit that the girl's got guts! I like Legolas because he trusts in himself; he tackles tasks and trusts his aim. (he's also really cute!) Friendship, bravery, and love are main ideas. The stories rock!

Answer 7

aragorn and his lessons are guilt and living up to expectations

He feels guilty about things that have happened in the pass and he wonders if he had the choice if he would have thrown the ring in or kept it, he is worried that he was too many weaknesses

Answer 8

Deserves death? most assuredly he does---But some who die, deserve life--can you give that to them? Then be not too eager to deal out death in the name of justice. Not even the very wise can see all ends.
