  • You Have 1000CP
    You are heading to the dark land of Mordor in the realm of Middle-earth. The events that are set to transpire here are some time between the events of the Hobbit and those of the Lord of the Rings but as a whole do not really fit into Tolkien’s canon. Until recently the rangers of Gondor held the Black Gate of Mordor and all was relatively quiet in the land of shadow. Orc activity seemed on the increase and now they have taken back the gate as the first step in consolidating a power that will threaten the whole of Middle-earth. You arrive just as a Gondorian Ranger of the Black Gate called Talion is revived and inhabited by the wraith of the long dead Ñoldorin prince Celebrimbor. Together the two of them will cut a swathe through the ranks of the uruk in a quest to hinder Sauron and avenge Talion’s butchered family. Elsewhere the white wizard Saruman is already looking enviously towards Mordor and has many spies both amongst the people and some of the fauna. Within Mordor the uruks dominate much of the landscape, building great forts and war machines to prepare for the wars to come. The Rangers of the Black Gate are all but destroyed but remnants within the Outcasts of Udûn hold desperately to their lives and freedom. The vast amount of the human population of Mordor has been enslaved but the Tribesmen of Núrn in the southeast continue to resist the orcs. The shadow of Mount Doom falls upon you.

  • TOLKIEN‟S the SILMARILLION: a REEXAMINATION of PROVIDENCE by David C. Powell a Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the Dorothy
    TOLKIEN‟S THE SILMARILLION: A REEXAMINATION OF PROVIDENCE by David C. Powell A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of The Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Florida Atlantic University Boca Raton, Florida August 2009 Copyright by David C. Powell ii ABSTRACT Author: David C. Powell Title: Tolkien‟s The Silmarillion: A Reexamination of Providence Institution: Florida Atlantic University Thesis Advisor: Dr. Thomas Martin Degree Master of Arts Year 2009 Christian providence in the primary (real) world operates as the model for the spiritual movement of Eru/Illuvatar in Tolkien‟s secondary (imaginative) world. Paralleling the Christian God, Illuvatar maintains a relationship with his creation through a three-fold activity: preservation, concurrence, and government. Preservation affirms Eru‟s sovereignty as Creator, and concurrence guarantees creaturely freedom, while paradoxically, government controls, guides, and determines those wills in Time. The union of these three activities comprises the providential relationship of Illuvatar in Tolkien‟s imaginary world. The following thesis endeavors to carry the argument for providence into The Silmarillion with a declarative and analytical detail that distinguishes Illuvatar‟s providence from other temporal manifestations. Finally, the analysis reveals not only the author‟s authentic orthodox perspective, but Illuvatar‟s role in the imaginative world emerges as a reflection of Tolkien‟s authorial role in the real world. iv TOLKIEN‟S THE SILMARILLION: A REEXAMINATION OF PROVIDENCE ABBREVIATIONS . .vi INTRODUCTION . 1 CHAPTER ONE: PRESERVATION . 7 CHAPTER TWO: CONCURRENCE . 17 CHAPTER THREE: GOVERNMENT . 50 WORKS CITED . 66 NOTES . .71 v ABBREVIATIONS Aspects “Aspects of the Fall in The Silmarillion.” Eric Schweicher.
