Meer over het boek

Exploring the concept of heroism, this analysis highlights the often-overlooked contributions of female and lesser-known characters in The Lord of the Rings. Lynnette Porter challenges traditional notions of heroism, arguing that figures like Eowyn, Arwen, and Merry possess qualities that embody true bravery and valor. By examining these characters alongside more prominent heroes, the work emphasizes that heroism can manifest in various forms, suggesting that admiration for heroes need not be confined to the leading figures alone.
