2015-07-19 2019-08-18 Having never read LoTR, I was enthralled by the idea of a character that is older than all of Creation in Middle Earth.

2016-07-24 2008-06-22 Not an idea I came up with, but it rings true to me. 2008-02-17 2014-03-09 2004-09-05

2005-07-10 2007-10-21 2016-11-27 [1], According to the Bucklandish poem The Adventures of Tom Bombadil, Goldberry was in the Withywindle when she pulled Tom by his beard under the water-lilies out of mischief, but he ordered her to let him free. 2013-01-20 2009-06-21 He also appears in The Adventures of Tom Bombadil, a book of verse first published in 1962, purporting to be a selection of Hobbit poems, two of which concern B… Strangely, the Ring appears to hold no power over Tom and the old man doesn't even disappear when he wears it. 2019-03-10 2018-04-08 Tom Bombadil is an Easter egg of English folklore, taken out of England and put into Middle Earth. 2017-11-26 2010-06-06

It took the reader gradually from comfort to danger and set up the rest of the story.

2010-11-21 Bombadil is challenged by various river-residents on his journey, including birds, otters and hobbits, but charms them all with his voice, ending his journey at the farm of Farmer Maggot, where he drinks ale and dances with the family. 2014-11-09

If there was one thing that I wanted the movies to expound upon, it was them. 2018-12-16

2006-01-01 All this time, I was convinced that Ilmarinen was the one who made the Sampo. 2006-03-12 @11- That's possible, but who knows? 2008-07-27

2008-10-12 Goldberry, the "River-daughter", was the wife of Tom Bombadil in the Old Forest at the edge of Buckland. 2007-06-17 Not necessarily evil but is inaction against evil not evil?Bombadil is a morally ambiguous figure.

2013-09-01 Gandalf says, rather, that "the Ring has no power over him..." and believes that Tom would not find the Ring to be very important and so might simply misplace it.

The Silmarillion. 2019-07-21 2013-11-10 Wife, mother, and Hobbit at Heart.

yet he encouraged them to seek refuge with Beorn.it would seem strange that Gandalf wouldn't warn the hobbits against Bombadil if he were truly evil as this essay purports. There are always those powerful figures who sit on the sidelines while the world falls apart. 2014-08-03

2005-01-23 2017-02-12 2010-05-09 2006-09-24 My personal view is that Tom Bombadil is some indication that Illuvatar has plans/works that exist outside of Arda itself.Tolkiens legendarium is the story of the creation, life, and struggles that occur within Arda. 2013-12-22 2016-03-13 Tolkien says little about Tom Bombadil's origins in the cosmology of Middle-earth. 2014-02-16



He is evidently content with his place in the order of things as opposed to Sauron who is absolutely resltess in his malevolence and ambition to make himself something he cannot be and should not want. 2014-06-01 2017-12-24 2007-01-14

At the same time the Council of Elrond apparently recognizes him and what he is, and mentions that though he might be the last to fall if they put the ring in his protection, fall he at last would, so he is not quite absolute or completely divorced from Arda.Oddly though, Tom's conception of time and importance is very different from anyone else's.

Craig has previously been published on sites such as Den of Geek, and after many coffee-drenched hours hunched over a laptop, part-time evening work eventually turned into a full-time career covering everything from the zombie apocalypse to the Starship Enterprise via the TARDIS. Tolkien invented Tom Bombadil in memory of his children's Dutch doll, and wrote light-hearted children's poems about him, imagining him as a nature-spirit evocative of the Englishcountryside.

Though that story is supposed to be a mere nightmare.

2020-09-13 2016-10-09 Appropriately, this reminds me of the theory that Tolkien created the Ents and their attack on Isengard to remedy his disappointment with MacBeth.

2018-12-30 2016-02-28 There is nothing morally ambiguous about him: he is good with no hint of ambition to him. 2012-08-05 Peregrin Took | 2007-05-27

For instance, the first movie Fellowship of the Ring, seems to have the exact scenes of the earlier cartoon, and no extra scenes. This bumped it up on my priority list.Funny how I just now thought of Tom's wife's name in many years, Goldberry?Although I didn't miss him in Jackson's movie I guess it stuck more than I thought. 2008-09-07 2016-06-12 2011-05-08

The poems were published in the collections The Adventures of Tom Bombadil and later in Tales from the Perilous Realm.

egarding your lecture on Tom Bombadil: since The Holy Bible is Tolkien’s source material, I like to place Tom Bombadil under a biblical rubric, and see him as an Elohim (or angel or spiritual being, part of the divine council, whichever term you prefer) – a biblical lower case-g ‘god’.

This proves fortunate, as the four encounterBarrow-wights in the following chapter, "Fog on the Barrow-downs".



Is he some sort of Wisdom personification? 2004-08-15 2004-12-26 2017-02-19

2016-01-31 2005-09-11 It's one of my favorite parts when Bombadil puts on the Ring and it doesn't effect him. Tolkien never confirmed Tom Bombadil's origins or race but when the Hobbits finally reach Rivendell, Elrond sheds a little light on the character, explaining that Bombadil is one of the most ancient beings in all of Middle-earth and although quite harmless, has little care for the world outside of his own domain.
