摘要

j·r·r·托尔金早年是一名孤儿，后来又在一战中成为一名士兵，经历了艰难的生活，他一生中承受了足够多的创伤和痛苦，这些都成为他几乎所有小说作品中的重要元素。本文探讨托尔金对苦难在人类生活中的影响的理解，这种理解受到他的宗教信仰的影响。他将痛苦呈现为堕落世界不可避免的本质部分;然而，虽然它起初似乎是一种惩罚形式，但如果处理得当，它会变成一种实现个人或社会救赎的有力手段。

”What punishments of God are not gifts?” The meaning of suffering in Tolkien’s life and work

Abstract J. R. R. Tolkien, as somebody who experienced a difficult early life as an orphan and then as a World War I soldier, endured enough trauma and suffering in his life for it to become a significant element in almost all of his fictional works. This paper explores Tolkien’s understanding of the effects of suffering in human life, which was shaped by his religious belief. He presents pain as an inevitable and essential part of the nature of the Fallen World; yet while it may seem at first as a form of punishment, if treated appropriately, it turns into a powerful means of achieving personal or societal salvation.
