Describe The Differences Between Bilbo And The Dwarfs

When somebody mentions the word, “hero,” we think of someone dressed in shining armour holding a sword, slaying the terrible dragon guarding a hoard of gold. In The Hobbit, there is indeed a heinous dragon guarding a hoard of treasure and a hero who embarks on a journey to defeat said dragon and reclaim his stolen birthright. However, we do not just have one hero. We have two: the traditional and non-traditional hero. There is Bilbo Baggins, a shrewd hobbit who contrasts greatly from the typical hero, and Thorin Oakenshield, a strong-minded dwarf who resembles the traditional hero. By the end of the story, both characters have established that they’re capable of conquering obstacles and adversities with their

Later on in the book the party of dwarves and Bilbo are traversing the mountainside and they get captured by a group of goblins. The dwarves eventually

The story starts from the side of Mr. Bilbo Baggins. Bilbo starts as a nervous & annoyed host. He is hobbit, & his folk are reserved, but kind & carefree. Hobbits love to accommodate company when the time arrives, but this night Bilbo was in a ruck. Spontaneously, 13 dwarves & Gandalf tediously trickled through the door in groups & demanded dinner. Bilbo was not expecting these unknown & unplanned visitors, especially the grand total of 14! They ate & sang all night, while little time was devoted to business, which was planned that night. Bilbo was exhausted, unpleased, & unaffiliated with the pressing event they gathered to discuss. He was only aware that Gandalf selected him to be the Burglar of the party, which just so happened to be a vast journey across Middle-Earth. Unbeknownst to anyone, this was the start of a haunting tale, which Bilbo would never overlook. The first prominent issue Bilbo had to resolve the trolls. The group utilized this to test Bilbo’s strength, courage, brains, & stealth. Throughout the story, Bilbo continues to earn his spot among the dwarves, while the party is continually slammed with additional problems, however, everyday & every challenge reveals more of the nature of the dwarves & of Bilbo. With his role concluded & the Battle of Five Armies won, the yearning for home was too much to bear. Bilbo decided to travel home & achieve his part in the adventure of a lifetime. Each dwarf had grown quite fond of Bilbo, for the journey wouldn’t have been a success without their Burglar. The travel home was bittersweet & was a wonderful memoir of his quest. Gandalf accompanied him all the way to his Hobbit Hole on the Hill in Bag-End. Can we label Bilbo a hero? If so, what kind of hero is he? Is he a hero in history or in the eyes of the dwarves? Was Bilbo a savior for the descendants to come or the

The story starts at Bilbo’s home in the Shire. Bilbo lives in a furnished hobbit-hole. After the company comes to his home and they embark on the journey, they head to Rivendell to seek the elf, Elrond’s, advice. They make their way through the Misty Mountains and then through the other elf dwelling, Mirkwood. After travelling up the river, the dwarves are captured by large spiders. Bilbo sets them free from the spiders, but the dwarves are captured again only by elves. The elves imprison the dwarves until Bilbo frees them. The company travels up the nearby river in barrels to arrive in the town outside Erebor. The company travels to the mountain and wait for the right moment when the secret passage inside can be opened. Bilbo eventually gets inside Erebor and encounters the dragon that occupies it. The dragon leaves in a few days to terrorize the town of Dale outside of the mountain. The dwarves then occupy their lost kingdom. The dwarves’ greed regarding their riches gets the attention of the nearby peoples. A war is started right in front of the mountain due to the desires to overthrow the dwarves’ kingdom again. As they go along their journey, they encounter many different types of beings such as orcs, elves, and other men. The whole series of events take place in the land of Middle Earth. There are distant lands far beyond Middle Earth. There is a great deal of tension in the

He keeps everything to himself and has a low sense of confidence and wisdom of such any undertaking venture. Until 13 dwarves and a wizard came long, Bilbo was ruzed into helping the dwarves asset their gold over the brimming mountains abducted by a fire- breathing dragon, Smaug. Throughout their march to the Lonely Mountains, the dwarves and hobbit were interrogated with spiders, flies, trolls, goblins, elves and Lake men. Through the first part of the campaign, the dwarves were tramping through a lightness, dungeon-like tunnels with bilbo being hoisted up by Dori. On spur of moment, Bilbo was grappled from behind and no one knew who or what it was. The hobbit fell and bowled over a boulder making him unconscious. Furthermore into the dim tunnels Bilbo has awaken, and was challenged to exchange riddles with a creature that threatened to devour him if he does not answer his riddles correctly. Small slimy creature, no one knew where it derived from. Golum was its name. Throughout the riddles, Bilbo obtained assurance from not getting eaten by

The contrast between different types of leadership appears in the chapter Flies and Spiders in J.R.R Tolkien’s The Hobbit. The chapter starts off with the group no longer having Gandalf lead them through the perils that lie in the Mirkwood. Thorin helps lead the group past a deadly river that cannot be touched and helps them until he is captured by elves. Bilbo battle spiders and saves the dwarves on multiple occasions in Thorin’s absence. In this chapter you see a new contrast in Throrin and Company. No longer having Gandalf Thorin picked up the mantle of leadership and lead by command. Bilbo then assumed the role of leadership in Thorins absence and lead by putting others first, putting himself on the line. As the story progresses you have these two types of leadership contrasting throughout the story. Ultimately in the end Bilbo’s was of leadership proved to be better.

Bilbo Baggins have too sides of him. His took side they are different and also similar. On Baggins side of the family there are rich. There not the type of nasty dirty hobbit they are a very clean hobbit. He lived in a hobbit hole a very nice hobbit hole. The mother of Bilbo Baggins were Belladonna Took she was head of the hobbits . Baggins family didn’t like adventures , but they really was respectful .Took side of the family they were totally different in a way then the Baggins family.This side of the family was wealthy .They loved adventures weren’t afraid to go on risky adventures .There mother got married to Bilbo’s farther. Tooks were not as respectable as the Bagginses through they were undoubtedly richer. This two different sides

Through many exploits battling enemies and making friends, Bilbo and company get to the Lonley Mountain, where Smaug lives. Bilbo manages to anger Smaug, causing Smaug to terrorize a village. While Smaug is terrorizing, he is shot down in the one spot he does not have armour, by one of the villagers in the village by Smaug’s mountain, called Bard. Then, through a disagreement on the Dragon’s treasure, a war broke out, called the Five Armies, in which Bilbo is knocked out. During this war, Fili and Kili, two main dwarves, die protecting Thorin, who gets shot anyway, but in the end, the dwarves win this battle. Later, Bilbo wakes up and talks to Thorin for a bit, but because of his arrow, Thorin dies. So then Bilbo leaves with Gandalf to go home and live a peaceful life, in which Gandalf leaves, but then comes to visit every so

After Bilbo opens his eyes and began searching around the tunnel, later he finds a tiny ring on the floor of the tunnel and puts the ring in his pocket. A petite slimy creature named Gollum was watching Bilbo from a distance; however, Bilbo could not see Gollum. Next, Gollum walks up to Bilbo to approach him and begins to have a conversation with him. Gollum asks Bilbo if he wants to sit and play a game of riddle, Bilbo agrees although he was anxious to say yes to Gollum. I consider the character of Gollum interesting as he was observing Bilbo at first and then asks Bilbo if he wants to play a game of riddles. At first, I assumed that since Gollum lives alone in an isolated environment perhaps he felt lonely and requested Gollum to play with

Bilbo and his throng have different perspectives of the village Rivendell, as Bilbo and his companions make their way through the Misty Mountains they soon discover the village of Rivendell where the elves live. When Bilbo arrives at Rivendell he is simple astonished by the men and women. Bilbo enjoyed his short visit there. This is revealed when, “Bilbo would gladly have stopped there for ever and ever..” This shows that Bilbo enjoyed staying at the village and wouldn’t mind staying a while. The dwarves on the other hand had

Do heros always have to big, strong and confident? Most people think that heroes are strong, brave and confident. But that may not always be the case. In the story, The Hobbit, We meet the main character Bilbo Baggins. In the beginning of the story Bilbo is believed to be a short scared hobbit. Bilbo is about half the size of a human and is a little scared and shy. As the story continues through the chapters you start to notice that Bilbo starts to become better and better and they start to call him a “Hero”. Bilbo has several times when he changes and started acting more like a hero.

Long ago, before Bilbo and the dwarves, there were many more magical items like the ring of Bilbo. These were much more powerful and had more dark magic within them. Today the story of one of the most powerful rings will be told. It was the Ring of Invincibility that could make you untouchable. Not many knew of the ring because it was hidden by the Spider Queens of Mirkwood. The Good Queen had just recently died, and another queen came to power. This Queen was not as good and kind. She abused her power over the spiders and caused chaos through Mirkwood with her servants.

Bilbo and the dwarves react a little different from each other. The dwarves didn't like any of the elves so they really didn't like Rivendell and thy felt a little out of place because most of their life they didn't really settle down in one place they were around their friends and always going on adventures. But Bilbo had most of his life he was in his hobbit hole and always cozy and he only had himself. And when they meet the elrond bilbo liked him and most of the other elves but no the dwarves did not they would always make fun of each other , like the elves would make fun of their beers and how short they was, and the dwarves would pick out a lot of things that looked funny to them and that is how it was between the dwarves and the elves.

Everyone is able to make through the Misty Mountains without running into drop-offs and dead-end trails by taking Elrond’s and Gandalf's advice. The whole crew takes shelter under a hanging rock that was barely covering everyone when the weather starts to change so they send out Fili and Kili to seek for better shelter. Both of them return saying they found a dry cave and on that night, Bilbo could not sleep and every time he did he had bad dreams, when he woke up his bad dream was becomes part true. After realizing this, Bilbo lets out a loud yell that wakes up the others and a dozen or so goblins come out and kidnapped them. They take them to their leader who interrogates Thorin and tries to lie, but gets caught when they pull out Thorin’s

The dwarves encounter a few intelligently absent goblins at misty mountains, a pass through the journey, where the dwarves are separated when in capture of the goblins where Gandalf had managed escape and Bilbo was departed from the rest of the group. During Bilbo’s separation he encounters Gollum who hammers him down with numerous riddles where Bilbo` then manages to get away with the ring that provides invisibility. Gandalf later disappears while during his absence the dwarves and hobbit are taken by trolls where Bilbo then has the ring to help escape. Gandalf returns and the captives manage to escape but peace is no longer with them as they walk on the tips of their toes through the forest where they again encounter mystical creatures such as trolls, spiders and Wood-elves where they enter a building and find an escape through a river. They come eventually to a place known as Lake-town where the Lake-men are welcoming and the hidden path to Smaug, the deadly dragon is found by the curious Bilbo baggins. The key begins to becomes to be in much use when the sealed cave doow is found. The secret key hole takes long to find until Darwin's day, the day where the secret door finally becomes opened and Bilbo Baggins enters this cave called the Lonely mountain. He darts quietly inside with
