that is an intereseting question. i have to say i hated the end of the book. i really hated it.
but i think frodo survived. but to my mind he suffered from depression. to my mind he has not saved the shire. indeed he was about to ruin the shire when he claimed the ring.... or may be the ring claimed him. however one puts that.
i think some higher power did not want the shire to be destroid.
i do not judge this, because i am really sure in the same situation i would have done the same.
there was a line saying something like "i tried to save the shire... and it has been saved". frodo did not say "...and i saved it". it sounds like "i tried to save the shire... and it had been saved... but not by me".
i do not think he died. i think he hurt a lot, but may be he would be able to recover if he really would have wanted it... but i think he did not want it. he thought that he deserved to hurt and did not deserve a happy life and may be he was hopeless.
