One of J. R.R. Tolkien's stated goals in developing the
world of The Lord of the Rings was to create a set of
myths for English-speaking peoples comparable to the
myths of the ancient Greeks and Norse. This endeavor
partially explains the preoccupation with origins and
"roots" that his characters show in all of his novels.
Which statement most accurately identifies the theme that the critic is
discussing and the historical context that affects the theme?
O A. The theme is mythology, and the historical context is the
preoccupation with origins and "roots."
OB. The theme is The Lord of the Rings, and the historical context is
the mythology of the Greeks and Norse.
O C. The theme is origins, or "roots," and the historical context is the
background on Tolkien's purpose.
O D. The theme is Greek and Norse mythology, and the historical
context is Tolkien's interest in them.
