The Lord of the Rings SHORT SUMMARY Bilbo Baggins throws a party for himself and his protégé, Frodo. At the party, Bilbo announces that he is leaving his home to his heir, Frodo. He returns home and is met by his close friend, the wizard Gandalf. Gandalf insists that Bilbo remove the Ring that he has owned since the events of the previous adventure, chronicled in The Hobbit, and give the ring to his young heir. The Ring has special powers, the most obvious of which is to make the wearer invisible. Then Bilbo disappears. For many years Frodo lives in Bilbo's home at Bag End. Just like Bilbo, Frodo appears not to he aged. In his fifties, he grows restless. One day Gandalf comes to Frodo and tells him that he is in danger. It seems that the Ring originally belonged to Sauron, the Dark Lord. Sauron wants the Ring back so that he can conquer the world. Sauron is using Gollum, an evil hobbit who also wa...

The Noble Savage in 20th Century Fiction Pop culture has a important part in shaping the mind of today's people. A large part of pop culture consists of stories which have the ability to change a person his take on life, taste in music and books, how to treat other people etc. It may seem simple and pointless but all the devoted fans, all the trekkies, warsies, twihards, potterheads and ringers (there are many more, with crazier names) prove us that stories can become more than entertainment. Of course, a story can change people without making them go to all sorts of conventions. Even the small ideas make a change. The main part in a story, the one that seemingly makes the impact, who guides the consumer through its change, is the protagonist. The development in the reader or the watcher happens through the transformation of the hero. Usually the main character starts off as an outcast, somebody the society sees as unimportant or too ...
"I am become death, the destroyer of worlds." So said the physicist Robert Oppenheimer, who helped to invent the atomic bomb. The two bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945 killed around 200,000 Japanese people. No other species has ever wielded such power, and no species could. The technology behind the atomic bomb only exists because of a cooperative hive mind: hundreds of scientists and engineers working together. The same unique intelligence and cooperation also underlies more positive advances, such as modern medicine. But is that all that defines us? In recent years, many traits once believed to be uniquely human, from morality to culture, have been found in the animal kingdom (see part one in this two-part series). So, what exactly makes us special? The list might be smaller than it once was, but there are some traits of ours that no other creature on Earth can match. No animal can get close to the devastatio...
Tartu Kutsehariduskeskus Toiduainete tehnoloogia osakond Kristina Tepper J.R.R. TOLKIEN Referaat Juhendaja Bianka Makoid Tartu 2011 1.ELULUGU JA LOOMING John Ronald Reuel Tolkien (3.01.1892 2.09.1973) oli inglise kirjamees, kelle teosed on kogunud maailmas tohutut populaarsust. Need raamatud on köitnud miljonite inimeste kujutlusvõimet ja muutnud nende mõtteviisi. See Oxfordis kesk-inglise keele lääne-midlandi dialektile spetsialiseerunud mees elas suhteliselt tavapärast ja tähelepandamatut väikekodanlikku elu pidas loenguid, kasvatas lapsi, elas Oxfordi äärelinnas, hoolitses aia eest ning suri vaikselt ja rahulikult 81-aasta vanusena. See elu oli kahtlemata täis akadeemilist sära, kuid seda vaid väga kitsal erialal, mis tavainimestele väga vähe (kui üldse) huvi pakub. Sellegipoolest sai ta hakkama millegi sellisega, mis muuti...
