similarities have you seen between the book‚ The Hobbit‚ and Beowulf? At first I saw major differences between Beowulf and The Hobbit. One is a story that was once a simple bed time story for the author’s children and the other is a poem that is the oldest English literature that we have today.

THE HERO’S JOURNEY Joseph Campbell‚ an American psychologist and mythological researcher‚ wrote a famous book entitled The Hero with a Thousand Faces.

The discovery of Hobbits most certainly affects our understanding of human evolution. After realizing that these

In Tolkien’s famous novel The Hobbit music helps the reader understand the characters’ personalities better. Whether it be dwarves‚ elves‚ or the torturous goblins‚ music plays a role in their development.

cheerful and intrepid life seen at the beginning. Sam is the person who adores his master and is willing to go after him wherever he chooses to go. He generally tries to be there and help Frodo. In any case‚ it is vital to specify that the hobbit is not a conventional hero. This normal individual just answers Gandalf’s call and assumes liability for demolishing the Ring. Another self-portraying example in this set of three stories may be the style of depicting Mordor. Tolkien presents it as a cheerless
