Why Is Tolkien Wrong
Tolkien is wrong because if you remember in the beginning of the book it says that they saw the elves after the dragon came and destroyed and burned the whole town.In the movie it shows that after the dragon destroyed and burned the whole town they saw the elf king just standing there on the top of the hill with his elf army after the town was destroyed. Tolkien is also right because when the dwarves were being attacked by the orcs.Then that guy was distracting the orcs animals with his rabbits.Then when everything went wrong, he orcs found out that it was just a distraction, but then the elf King and his army saved the dwarves lives. At the end, I would think that the elf King is bad because the rods have the best army and weapons and if

    The Role Of Lying In The Hobbit

    The worst part of being lied to is knowing you weren't worth the truth. In the book The Hobbit, Bilbo has a ring and he doesn’t tell the dwarves about it. I don’t consider it lying at all. On the first hand, he didn’t say anything, and on the second hand, he wasn’t telling any truth or lie. If I was in a situation like this, I would have just kept my mouth shut. I wouldn’t have to say anything. If Bilbo would have told the dwarves about the ring, The dwarves would probably have been very mad. If you’re ever in a situation like this, just keep your mouth…

    Why Is Christopher Columbus Wrong

    The second most guilty suspect on this voyage was Christopher Columbus. He was the one taking orders from the King and Queen and fulfilling them to the max. Columbus took the possession of Indian land and started to spread religion under his orders. However, he went over and beyond to do all of this for the King and Queen. He ordered men to enslave the Taino for them and to make them work in the mines for gold. Gold was all he and the King and Queen cared about. He even said, “Gold is most excellent; gold is treasure, and he who possesses it does all he wishes to in this world.” Also, he spread terror and fear to show he was in control. He grilled people and set dogs to chase children and eat them. To spread religion, he hung up Taino Indians…

    Why Is Huck Finn Wrong

    Censoring ‘Huck Finn’ is wrong! It is completely wrong! I agree with the editorial Leonard Pitts Jr. wrote, “Censoring ‘Huck Fin’ is Wrong!” People need to realize The Adventures of Huckleberry by Mark Twain is an American Classic. Let’s remember what a classic is. A classic is a novel that is well-written with rich deep language. It also has complex characters that change and grow as the story continues, allowing others to see what their lives are like at a specific time period. The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn does exactly that and more. How can anyone change it? It is ridiculous! It is completely…

    Why Is Christopher Columbus Wrong

    Christopher Columbus sailed the ocean blue in fourteen-hundred-ninty-two. He came over from Spain in three ships, the Nina, the Pinta, and the Santa Maria and discovered America, or at least that was what I was taught in elementary school. Since then there has been much controversy going on over the issue of weather or not Christopher Columbus really "discovered" America because when he landed in San Salvador he was not alone. Native Americans already inhabited the land and they had been there long before Columbus, but this doesn't mean that he should be atacked stripped of his dignity.…

    The Hero vs Villian Dichotomy in Beowulf

    In this battle, Grendel is very obviously the villain, and Beowulf the triumphant hero. According to the text, Grendel was a bloodthirsty and evil creature who enjoyed the pain and suffering of others; in no way can the creature be redeemed. The poem says, “then [Grendel’s] heart laughed, for the savage beast was in the mood to sever each soul’s life from its body before daybreak as he saw this opportunity to sate his slaughterous appetite” (33). Grendel is an evil creature, and his actions are for selfish and personal reasons. Beowulf, on the other hand, is the Hero, who fights for the good of others, and defends the helpless. Although he does desire glory,…

    Why Is Hammurabi Wrong

    Hammurabi’s Code was harsh and quick in order to serve as a deterrent. The code’s harshness made people see what would happen to them if they broke the law. His code stopped people from breaking the law, so it protected the weak from the strong. The U.S does not have a harsh and quick system. In fact, it is very slow and does not have many major punishments. Many laws are broken in the U.S because our laws do not serve as a deterrent. If Hammurabi visited the U.S today I think he would not be pleased and he would not feel that his ideal was not being met. Hammurabi wanted to protect the weak from the strong, but the system of laws the United States has does not execute this. People rob, hurt, and even kill people on a day to day basis! Hammurabi…

    The Odyssey vs the Lord of the Rings

    One thing I noticed was the use of several different themes included in both stories. In the Lord of the Rings the inhabitants of Middle Earth join to save themselves from enslavement. Centuries before, a ring was forged putting much power into control of who had it. Some men fell into that power, but an alliance of men and elves defeated it. The Ring was cut from Sauron hand. Sauron was a antagonist character who was pursuing the power by wearing the ring. After being cut from Saurons hand, the ring should have been destroyed, but a human prince, Isildur, took it. Isildur was slain, and the Ring fell into a river. Myth also played a part in The Lord of the Rings, the sense of transience and lost grandeur that pervades The Lord of the Rings goes, in part, with the territory in which Tolkien is wading. He writes the novel in a mythic mode, and one of the conventions of myth is that it describes a past that is more glorious than the present. This sense of loss certainly is present in the Greek myths, for example, or in Homer’s epic poems that draw on these myths—both of which describe a world in which men and gods mix freely, a world that is no more. Tolkien’s own work is something between mythology and fiction, locating itself in a middle ground between a past that is remembered only in song and the everyday present of the reader. This sense of ancientness is constantly present, brought to life in chants, poems, and graven inscriptions. As Tolkien shows again and again—whether with the Elves or with the Númenóreans or the Dwarves—the stories that the characters tell define them. In…

    Why Is Socrates Wrong

    In 399 BCE Socrates was wrongfully put to death. The charges and verdict were posted in the metroon (Greek temple): "Socrates is guilty of refusing to recognize the gods recognized by the state and introducing other, new divinities. He is also guilty of corrupting the youth. The penalty demanded is death," (Socrates). Regardless of the laws at the time, and the amount of discretion given to the court, the wrong moral decision was made. Socrates’ famous student, Plato, wrote about trial in Apology, and Xenophon wrote in Socrates’ defense in Memorabilia.…

    Bilbo's Heroism

    Because Tolkien acknowledged that the idea of hobbits was rooted in his experiences with rural Englishmen of his own time, Bilbo’s development might allegorically represent the heroism of England in World War I or the inner, latent heroism common to everyone. But given Tolkien’s stated distaste for allegory—his main motivation for writing was storytelling, not the exploration of a literary theme—it is questionable whether Bilbo’s story should be taken to refer to anyone except Bilbo himself.…
