human class theory

"The Hobbit" and "The Lord of the Rings" make up a complete series about people trapped in their own desires, tortured and hard to break free. In "The Hobbit", the dwarf king Thorin once indulged in the desire for money, which was temptation from outside. In the "Lord of the Rings" series, the human king Aragorn has been struggling with his own shame and cowardice, which is a struggle from the heart. Although in the end, both overcome desire, it is a sublimation in the epic sense. In reality, the vast majority of people who cannot break free.

There are disputes of interests, temporary alliances, and mortal enemies among the various ethnic groups in the film. In my opinion, they correspond to the various strata of human society.

The human race is the weakest, almost powerless to resist the forces of evil, can only rely on the help of other powerful ethnic groups, and is forgetful, blindly obedient, and easily deceived, symbolizing the common people.

The elves are immortal, arrogant and arrogant, but they are selfish and narrow-minded and short-sighted, symbolizing the nobility.

The dwarves are ingenious, vulgar and greedy, easily lost their minds under the temptation of money, symbolizing craftsmen and merchants.

Half-orcs are violent and cruel, and they run wild. They do not represent a specific class, but the sinful impulse and original sin of human beings. It is precisely that people of all classes cannot escape.

As for the hobbits, they are pure and kind, not easily disturbed by desires. They also represent the author's good wishes.

It is this beauty that makes the offensive of the orcs disintegrated again and again. Although the evil forces were once clamoring, they finally failed. Although the evil in human nature always exists, and it comes out to wreak havoc from time to time, the beauty in human nature can always restrain the evil, so that although human society is often thrown into chaos, it has never really collapsed.
