The Hobbit
J.R.R Tolkien
The Hobbit revolves on the story of Middle Earth, a place that literally means what it says, not purely on the normal realm and not purely on the magical realm. The atmosphere of the place gives us the idea of the real world and the extension of it through bizarre places, things, creatures, and abilities. As we can see in real world, people are divided by races according to Nationality, Culture, skin color, and etc. These are examples we can have in the real world. In the story of the Hobbit, races are divided into races, the elves - the immortals, wisest, and the fairest of all beings, dwarves – great miners and craftsmen of the mountains, the humans, the mortals, common folks, hobbit – gentle folks and happy lot, orcs – the cursed elven beings who serve evil lords, and more. Creatures such as trolls, wargs, fairies, giants are things of myth and imaginations of the human mind. These are creations of real men who have broad minds in arts and literature are applied in this story. Thus, creating a mirror of fantasy and of reality.
