RUIN, RUIN, RUIN
I decided this morning to watch on My PC the English movie "THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING" (in 4 DVD discs which I bought a long time ago but have not been able to watch until now), and to make it easier for Me to understand the film, I watched on YouTube a few interesting book reviews of the bestselling novel by J.R.R. Tolkien (which I have not read yet but will read very soon, I hope). One talk entitled "HOW TO READ J.R.R. TOLKIEN" delivered at Carnegie Mellon University by Michael D.C. Drout, a professor of English at Wheaton College, who returned to CMU campus to give his interesting talk on "HOW TO READ J.R.R. TOLKIEN", intrigues Me because of excessive repetition of 'Ruin' 'Ruin' 'Ruin' - which seems calculated to instil/instill in the cold and dispassionate heart of God appropriate pity and sympathy and empathy for a poor, sweet Sita-like creature! I am also reminded of a novel on Radha (by the popular Bengali novelist Sunil Gangopadhyay, if I remember right): Radha begs Durbasha/Kr, who is always in a very angry mood and rapes her repeatedly, to "bless" her that she would get "reborn" with a fresh new v.! Many "devis" or "goddesses" have in fact been treated by male aliens/"gods" as their "devdasis"/prostitutes of the "gods". (Indian TV news channels are broadcasting a similar case of young female "virgins"/"kumaris" to be f. by "gods" in a "temple" of Madurai in India. And the fake "sadhu" jailed rapist "Ram Rahim" has become notorious throughout the world.)
In "THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING", THE RINGS = ? THE RING = ?
THE RINGS = polite euphemism for v.....s (plural of v.)?
THE RING = polite euphemism for one particular v.?
