| مستخلص: |
The article focuses on exploring the portrayal of evil in J.R.R. Tolkien's legendarium, particularly examining the character Ungoliant and its implications for Tolkien's Augustinian view of evil. Topics include the influence of Augustine of Hippo's philosophy on Tolkien's depiction of evil, the tension between Augustinian and Manichaean views of evil in Tolkien's works, and the ambiguous origins of Ungoliant, which challenge the traditional interpretation of evil as a privation of good. |
