Article description: (description ) This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | In spite of the fact that Tolkien described Frodo and Sam's relationship as brotherly, the bond between them raised a lot of questions and arguments about the range and meaning of eroticism in his works. Their gestures and acts towards each other are indeed brotherly, even though many people misinterpret them due to different beliefs, culture and prejudices. The reader is not supposed to see something else in their connection, because, according to the Word of God, they are like brothers. But if the author didn't want to be other Unfortunate Implications, then why are there two relevant quotes that actually liken their relationship both to a marriage and to the animal partnership that exists for mating purposes? He could easily have used less ambiguous metaphors that bear no sexual implications whatsoever. One quote is remarked in the passage where Sam battles Shelob to save Frodo. There Sam is described as a small creature(...)that stands above its fallen mate. |
