In almost every culture, evil deeds happen in darkness and they are usually made
by ugly people. This also happens the other way around: good deeds happen in light and
they are made by beautiful people. These aspects are vital to carry out this project, as
this paper presents four cultural metaphors that are found in The Lord of the Rings
trilogy written by J.R.R. Tolkien, which are good is light, good is beauty, evil is dark and
evil is ugly. The aim of this paper is to explore these cultural metaphors in The Lord of
the Rings books and movies. More concretely, the paper endeavours to illustrate some
of their most outstanding realisations across the lines of the novel that provide
descriptions of main characters and setting, and the scenic representations of these
characters and settings in the film. The results of our analysis yielded a continuum with
two extremes, good and evil, in which characters and settings are arranged according to
the analysed verbal and visual characterisations or representations. We take into account
that there are characters and settings who are always represented by light and beauty,
others who represent evil through their appearance which is dark and ugly, and other
characters and settings represent the middle ground, that is, they are not entirely good
nor evil. [-]
