Por Que Tolkien CHOROU ao Escrever Sobre Gollum?

Why did J.R.R. Tolkien cry while writing The Lord of the Rings? Discover the moving analysis of the hidden scene of Gollum (Sméagol) in The Two Towers that was left out of the films and reveals a profound lesson in philosophy and theology. There are scenes in literature that mark us for their stillness and for what could have been. Tolkien confessed in his letters that he cried while writing one of these moments: the silent tragedy of the interrupted redemption on the Stairs of Cirith Ungol. In this video, I analyze the anatomy of this minimal and decisive instant—the near-conversion of Sméagol—as a tragic scene of the human condition, where good fails because mercy is denied. ABOUT THE ANALYSIS: Tolkien teaches us that redemption is a gift that requires two hands. The question that remains is: how many Sméagols have we ourselves kept away from the light through lack of mercy? A profound reflection that unites fantasy literature with Augustinian thought. 💬 LEAVE YOUR COMMENT: Do you agree with this view on Sam's failure?
