Returner User ID: 997 United States 08/02/2010 05:28 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Sorry, but I don't think any 'channeling' was involved. Tolkien wrote LOTR largely as an excuse to showcase his invented languages. He also wrote an extensive backdrop of historical and linguistic materials -- frankly, he was brilliant, but a bit obsessed. As I understand his writing processes, they were typical of any fiction writer -- write a bit, change a bit, go back, revise, jump ahead, start again. So I don't think channeling was involved. But that's just my opinion. |

Also, OP, I had the same thought not too long ago, but Tolkein's process and inspirations were very well noted or outright documented. |

As they are both trying to create a "last stand" moment, to solidify the West into a singular race and a singular creed. That is why they are leaving areas controlled by the Roman Catholic Church, alone in certain parts of Europe. The idea, is to force Swedes out of Sweden, Germans out of Germany and etc, so they flee to these safe havens where their children intermix into a singular "white race", coupled with a singular Church. From there, the Roman Catholic's can act hysterical and proclaim a British monarch as the "Savior of the West", type thing, like their prophecy(plan incase they lost control of Europe) entails. |

I don't think LOTR has a modern example to compare it too, because industrial societies almost always defeat non-industrial. You don't understand metaphor, do you? I do understand metaphor, I don't think you do, usually in the metaphor the players in conflict have some similarities that correspond to the main themes and conflicts of the story. One of the main conflict of the story is industrialized society vs. unindustrialized / agricultural society. England does not meet that requirement in the slightest, in fact they were the founders of industrialization in some of the most key inventions. So if anything that would make England moreso the "orcs" than Germany. But maybe read the authors words for himself, because he was asked countless times by friends if it was all an allegory for WW2, and he alway denied it. Did he have experiences from WW1 which he tried to add some of the feelings that he experienced being in war? Sure. But don't try to dumb his books down to the extreme of saying that the Allies were the good races in LOTR and the Axis were the bad races. For it to even be remotely a possible allegory, the "good guys" would have to be non-industrial and the bad guys would have to be industrial because that's the main conflict of the story. |

Why??? JRR Tolkien was a Christian. While God and Christ aren't mentioned in the literature, there are various allegories that sort of resemble Christ. Frodo (who was innocent) taking the evil ring kind of represents Jesus who is innocent being forced to suffer for the sins of all. Gandalf resurrecting into Gandalf the White represents Christ's resurrection. And Aragorn being crowned king of Gondor and defeating Sauron represents Jesus Christ returning to the earth to destroy the antichrist. So there is definitely some parallels in the story... Parallels like that aren't in a movie, like, say Star Wars. Luke is a farmboy and trained to be a Jedi, ehhh I don't see it. Maybe you could say as Obi-Wan Kenobi died and then returns as a ghost, that that kind of represents a resurrection, but it's still quite different. |
