Upon reading the first few chapters of our Week Three assignment, Tolkien's use of environment as a literary tool is quite evident. Notice how he describes a glance at the fields Rohan in the first paragraph of chapter seven and then skip down to the fourth paragraph to analyze the enviroment associated with Isengard. We are able to predict good vs. evil, serenity vs. strife, and so on by the way the author presents the surroundings. Of course, Tolkien has done this throughout the saga but it may be an enjoyable activity for us to select our personal "outstanding environments". If you come across an excellent use of environment that may be a personal favorite, please let us know here! And yes, I know this is a tracking question but I would like to present it here while I'm thinking about it ...
