Nature and Technology: Angelic and Sacrificial Strategies in Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings
Abstract
Responds to critics who call Tolkien anti-science and anti-technology by showing that creatures of Middle-earth manipulate their environments, but in less obvious ways. Contrasts the “angelic” methods of elves with the “sacrificial” strategy of mortals.
