J. R. R. Tolkien transformed the trauma he experienced in the trenches of the Battle of the Somme in 1916 into the seed of the world of Middle-earth. He began publishing it with *The Hobbit* in 1937, then completed *The Lord of the Rings* trilogy over 17 years; it was published between 1954 and 1955. He developed its languages before building its world, and made the Ring the focus of a struggle over the temptation and corruption of power, embodied in characters such as Frodo, Gollum, Boromir, and Faramir. The journey ends with Frodo succumbing to the Ring at Mount Doom, before Gollum’s intervention leads to its destruction. But Frodo remains burdened by post-traumatic stress and departs in search of peace.
