3 examples of imagery of hobbit
⠀━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
In The Hobbit, Tolkien spends a lot of time describing the landscape. As Bilbo travels with Thorin's company, he sees plains, forests, and lots of mountains. The connotation changes as Bilbo's attitude does.
This shift in connotation is most noticeable in the way he describes the mountains. See this first passage, from early in the novel:
'One morning they forded a river at a wide shallow place full of the noise of stones and foam. The far bank was steep and slippery. When they got to the top of it, leading their ponies, they saw that the great mountains had marched down very near to them. Already they seemed only a day's easy journey from the feet of the nearest. Dark and drear it looked, though there were patches of sunlight on its brown sides, and behind its shoulders the tips of snow-peaks gleamed.'
How do you feel about this mountain? Probably some anticipation. A slight nervousness, but confidence that it can be scaled.
Tolkien describes the mountain as 'great,' and only 'a day's easy journey' away. This makes the mountain feel approachable. It seems 'dark and drear,' but shows 'patches of sunlight.' The image is static. This mountain gives a solemn feel, but not despairing. It's the first mountain Bilbo has seen, and he is in awe.
