About
Essay aus dem Jahr 2011 im Fachbereich Englisch - Literatur, Werke, , Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: The aim of this essay is to examine the role and the meaning of the ring in J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of The Rings from three different perspectives: the origin of the ring, the ring as a symbol in The Lord of the Rings, and the relation of the characters to the ring. First, a closer look at an excerpt of the work will reveal the ring as a central theme. This will be referred back to at a later time when the interaction of characters with the ring is explored. The following section will deal with the ring's origin, clarifying its significance and addressing questions regarding its importance for human beings and its erstwhile symbolic meaning. Subsequently, it will be easier to understand the symbol of the ring in Tolkien’s epic tale, including its influence on the plot and the reader's understanding of the story. In the last section, the character-object relationship will be further examined and analysed from two different aspects.
