1. La Naturaleza Corruptora del Poder en Tolkien.
El núcleo temático de la obra de Tolkien se centra en la tentación del poder absoluto, simbolizado por el Anillo Único. Los análisis destacan cómo la verdadera fuerza reside en la humildad y la renuncia al control, contrastando con la creencia de Sauron de que el deseo es la única medida de la fuerza.
- Absolute power corrupts absolutely. Like galadriel with the one ring, they would be beautiful and terrible.
- When i read lotr, i find a story about intentionally giving up power, about humble people having a greater impact on the world than any ruler, about the unaccountable cost of war.
- But the only measure that he knows is desire, desire for power and so he judges all hearts.
- Im indebted to deryck cook for the power of love versus the love of power nutshell summary of the rings theme.
2. Controversias y Recepción de 'The Rings of Power'.
La serie de Amazon, *The Rings of Power* (RoP), ha generado intensos debates, tanto por su manejo del canon y la compresión de la línea temporal, como por las decisiones de casting que provocaron reacciones negativas en ciertos sectores del fandom. A pesar de las críticas, algunos elementos, como la relación entre Elrond y Durin, han sido ampliamente elogiados.
- Conservatives raged when the amazon lord of the rings prequel, the rings of power, did not feature a whites-only cast. Lotr starwars.
- The best and imho only great parts of rings of power is elrond-durin bromance and i love how it depicts elves as the worst of friends. Oh im sorry its been a seven decades since we last talked you gotta understand i was super busy writing exactly three speeches.
- I have a lot of issues with rings of power. That being said, if you extend the analogy further, the orcs were yanked out of a sustainable, happy lifestyle as elves by saurons boss who forces them into a militarized subsistence existence on an endless war footing fueled by hatred of the other.
- I love rings of power and dont mind the timeline compression, contextually. But part of me wonders how different it would be if we got 3 lotr tv series running concurrently, each one set in a different period of the second age, aligning closer to canon. Instead of it all being mushed together.
3. El Poder y la Política en la Ciencia Ficción y Fantasía.
El concepto de poder se extiende a otras franquicias populares, donde se explora la desconfianza hacia el liderazgo carismático (Dune) y las maquinaciones políticas que llevan a la tiranía (Star Wars). Estos universos a menudo utilizan el poder como una herramienta para la manipulación y el control, reflejando dilemas morales complejos.
- Dune, in that the message is never trust organized religion or charismatic leadership. Or fitzpatricks war that shows those with power are never as good as they seem and will use their power to crush any voiced concern or opposition.
- He wont give up his power, ive just learned a terrible truth. I think chancellor palpatine is a sith lord.
- I think id also be justified in thinking palpatines anti-jedi policies are based on lies and bullshit. If the supreme chancellor unilaterally seized power and declared himself emperor in response to the jedi supposedly trying to assassinate him, then maybe the jedi were justified.
- The power to destroy a planet is insignificant compared to the power of cognitive dissonance. Seriously, these fucking people mustve been watching the back of their tvs all this time. Its not like lucas has ever been subtle.
