Jan 20, 2015 at 6:49 | comment | added | DVK-on-Ahch-To | @MatthewNajmon - he was a gardener, not a servant. | |
Jan 20, 2015 at 4:43 | comment | added | Matthew Najmon | @DVK Sam's place was to be a servant to Frodo, and he served Frodo in every one of the actions you listed. | |

Jan 19, 2015 at 23:20 | comment | added | DVK-on-Ahch-To | @BrendanLong - Sam's place was to prune trees, not to attack Orcs, Shelob, and carry Frodo up the mountains. | |

Jan 19, 2015 at 23:01 | comment | added | Brendan Long | @DVK But Denethor wasn't the rightful king of Gondor (since he was in the line of stewards, not kings). Moral: Only people related to kings can make good kings. Also, Sam is Frodo's (hereditary) servant, and his positive aspects can all be summarized as, "loves doing whatever Frodo wants". Characters in the Lord of the Rings tend to be good guys when they "stay in their place" and bad guys when they don't. | |

Jan 19, 2015 at 19:36 | comment | added | DVK-on-Ahch-To | @JoeL. - riiiiight... which is why his brother Boromir and his father Denethor end up behaving so "upliftingly"... or why a gardener's son Samwise Gamgee is the main hero of the book. | |

Jan 19, 2015 at 17:32 | comment | added | Joe L. | Quite possibly. Tolkien was, unfortunately, more than a little bit classist | |
