The Lord of the Rings Discussion, Book II, Chapter 2: The Council of Elrond
Summary
So...this chapter has the least action of almost any other chapter in the Lord of the Rings...it is basically all talk. The chapter begins with Frodo waking up, taking a walk with Sam and meeting up wih Gandalf and Bilbo. Then the Council begins. There are 11 speakers in this chapter: Bilbo Gandalf Frodo Sam Elrond Gloin Boromir Aragorn Legolas Galdor of the Havens Erestor Glorfindel And in addition 9 more characters are quoted directly Dain the Messenger from Mordor Isildur Saruman Radagast Denethor Barliman Butterbur Gwaihir the Gaffer Not to mention counless characters who mentioned in detail and in passing We begin with Gloin's recounting of Balins expedition to Moria and the subsequent loss of contact. And of Sauron's messenger asking for information about hobbits and a ring, "a little ring, the least of rings...but a trifle that Sauron fancies" Last edited by Finrod Felagund : 10-02-2004 at 09:41 PM. |
