Nazgűl Queen has just left Hobbiton.

<center><font color="red">1) a... I think that a main theme is that nothing is purely evil or purely good, only shades of inbetween... Sauron was once trying to help the world, Gollum did wnat to help Frodo, and all men have the capability of evil... so I can't say b like everyone else [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

2) d... showing how heores don't always have to be the warriors and the scholars, and often the person who seem most unlikely can be strongest.

3) yes... the evil of industry... fading of nature... "absolute power corrupts absolutely..." and, in fact, most of the themes mentioned in 1 & 2 also have a relevance in everyday life...

4) Erm... I don't think it really fits into any of them...

5) a, i guess.. though its hard to choose...

6) b, c, d, e

7) All... but especially E

8) 10

9) Yes, in a way, because you become more appreciative of the deeper philosophies of the novel and just understand it more...
