Pearce explores the theological and moral themes in Tolkien’s writings. He begins by discussing how the Great Music, which represents cosmic harmony and God’s plan, created Middle Earth. He draws a connection between Tolkien’s mythology and Boethius’s theory of three kinds of music, emphasizing Melkor’s disturbance and God’s production of beauty out of chaos. In “The Hobbit,” Pearce delves into the concept of “dragon sickness,” illustrating how avarice ensnares both Thorin and Bilbo and how providence leads Bilbo toward morality and knowledge. Lastly, he draws attention to Tolkien’s portrayal of spiritual enlightenment and hope, drawing parallels between Bilbo’s journey and Christian themes of selflessness, rebirth, and death.
