There and Back Again đ Oh, I've loved this fairy tale since childhood, my mother read it to me many times before bed and I myself reread it many times later, although now I've forgotten some moments đ Still, Peter Jackson's films leave their mark and the details of the book and the film adaptation get confused in the mind! I don't think Professor Tolkien himself knew what his passion for legends and the scientific work of a philologist would turn into âī¸ He himself says that the idea to write "The Hobbit" did not even occur to him: one day, while checking exam papers, he wrote on a blank sheet of paper "In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit" đ§âđž And then everything spun by itself and, caught by an unknown force, he created a fairy tale from which a whole new world was born â°ī¸ In many ways, the world of Middle-earth is similar to ours and is inspired by the folklore of the peoples of the North: Scandinavian, Celtic and Old English mythologies đ¤ Many names, plots and general atmosphere are taken from these cultures, so in many ways the universe of Middle-earth is the ideological heir and continuer of these cultures đē This is probably why everyone in the north loves this universe so much haha đ¸ Have you read The Hobbit as a child? #cute #teen #babyface #nerd #skinny
