SPOILER ALERT: It was a critique of modernization. Tolkien was a pastoral writer in the grand English tradition, and The Lord of the Rings was his criticism of the materialism of the modern world, of industrialization without consequence or thought, of constant grasping for more and more. In this way it was a greater work than something that merely criticized war, he criticized the path of Western Civilization. ~ Commenter Ryoushii
