0333 » Lord of the Rings & Easter Joy » Everything Sad Will Come Untrue » Samwise and The Field of Cormallen
Summary: Happy Easter everyone! (we're Catholic, and so was Tolkien, so it's still Easter...) <br>In this episode, we read Samwise's astonished awakening in The Field of Cormallen after the destruction of the One Ring, and discuss how it relates to the overwhelming joy of Easter. <br>“The Resurrection was the greatest ‘eucatastrophe’ possible in the greatest Fairy Story – and produces that essential emotion: Christian joy which produces tears because it is qualitatively so like sorrow, because it comes from those places where Joy and Sorrow are at one, reconciled, as selfishness and altruism are lost in Love.” ~ J.R.R.
