Re: Lord of the Rings as a political narrative

Literary analogies reflect a broader human tendency to seek meaning and understanding through storytelling, especially in times of crisis... Bit It's important to consider the complexities of such comparisons. I agree with you, that the idea that orcs represent inhumanity and brutality matches with ...
