Ngenkathi iMpi Yezwe I icishe isishiya ngaphandle kwe- "The Lord of the Rings"

Leso siphetho asinakuzwela into sonke esake sayizwa ngesikhathi esithile. Akumangalisi-ke ukuthi uma sifunda ngempilo yomlingiswa noma, ngokulula nje, sihlaziya okwethu, siyamangala ukuthi izinto bezizoshintsha kanjani ukube into eyodwa noma enye yenzekile ngesikhathi esithile.

Abaningi, lapho bebhekene nalezi zingxabano, bayokwethuka lapho becabanga ukuthi kungenzeka bafike kuphi nokuthi kube lula kanjani ukuthi kunqume indlela yethu. Endabeni ye, ngokwesibonelo,  UJRR Tolkien, isiphetho samsindisa ngokuyisimangaliso kusukela ekugcineni okubi. Okuthile, ngamafuphi, okusivumele ukuthi sijabulele umsebenzi wakhe nezwe lakhe elihle.

Bekungaba yini ngezincwadi ezinhle ukube lo mbhali ushonile eneminyaka engama-23? Impela, ngaphandle kwe- «I-Hobbit " noma "Lord of the Rings", lolu hlobo lwaluzovela ngokuhlukile futhi emcabangweni odumile, izidalwa ezinjenge- ukuzilibazisa, ama-elves, ama-orcs noma ama-dwarves, bezingeke zibe khona noma bezivele zehluke kakhulu.

Yebo, yebo kuphela isimo esincane sisindise uTolkien ekufeni okuthile isikhathi eside ngaphambi kokuba abhale izincwadi ezambeka kwi "Olympus" yezincwadi zamaphupho . Ukuqonda ukungena nokuphuma kwalokhu, kuyadingeka ukubuyela emuva eMpini Yezwe I nakwenye yezimpi ezibaluleke kakhulu nezesabekayo zale mpi, i-the Battle of the Somme.

Umbhali waseBrithani wabhalisa eneminyaka engu-22 eyolwela izwe lakhe eMpini Enkulu. Ukwenze njengabalingani bakhe abaningi baseyunivesithi, bonke bezimisele ukuvikela izwe labo. Umsebenzi, ngakho-ke, waba nesibopho sokuphela kwesinqumo esikhulu kangaka, ehudula, ngale ndlela, izinkulungwane zabantu abenebhadi baya esihogweni sempi.

Yaba yingxenye, ngemuva kwayo ukubhaliswa, kwe-11 Battalion of the Rifle Regiment of Lancashire. IBatalion angene kuyona njengesikhulu ngenxa yesimo sakhe senhlalo nezifundo zakhe. Ngale ndlela, ngemuva kwesikhathi sokufundiswa, weza phambili ngo-1916 elungele ukubamba iqhaza empini enkulu yeSomme.

Le mpi, engenye yomncintiswano omude kunayo yonke futhi enegazi, yaqeda izimpilo zamadoda angaphezu kwesigidi. I "Apocalypse" yangempela lapho uTolkien ayehileleke khona sengathi ivela ku Hobbit en UMordor bekuyi.

Uma iqiniso elilula lokuba kulesi simo lenze ukuthi ukusinda kombhali wesikhathi esizayo kulenga kulayini omncane. Phakathi nalolu hambo olunjengempi, kwenzeka isigameko esabeka impela ibhalansi ohlangothini lwempilo nokulimaza ukufa okuqinisekisiwe empini.

Iqiniso ukuthi, phakathi kwalesi sikhala sokwethusa, udaka, ukufa nokubhujiswa, isimilo sethu sagula kaningi phakathi kwamasosha ayegcwele emseleni. Umkhuhlane nobuthakathaka kwahlasela uTolkien kwamphoqa ukuthi ashiye isikhundla sakhe ngaphambili.  ngenxa yalesi sifo esibizwa, ngokunembile, "umsele".

Ngalesi sizathu, wadluliselwa yinkampani yama-ambulensi engama-75 yaya ngemuva futhi esuka lapho wayiswa esitimeleni sama-ambulensi wabuyela esiqhingini sakubo. Into enelukuluku elikhulu kunawo wonke ukuthi, ngenkathi lokho kwenzeka, umlilo wasedolobheni namabhomu amakhulu ezikhali zempi aqothula ibutho lakhe, cishe aqothula bonke abangane bakhe bangaphambili..

Lokhu kwenzeke ezinsukwini ezimbalwa ngemuva kokudluliselwa kwakhe ngemuva. Ngokwalesi sizathu, Asikwazi ukuzibamba kodwa sicabange ukuthi bekuzokwenzekani ukube ukudluliswa kwakhe kubambezeleke isikhathi eside ngokwanele ukufaka umlobi kulokhu kuqhuma kwamabhomu.. Kumele kuthiwe, kubo bonke abangane bakaTolkien, munye kuphela okwazile ukusinda empini. Idatha esisiza ukuthi siqonde isihluku nokufa okuphezulu kweMpi Enkulu.

Umbango awukwazanga ukumqeda kepha ube nomthelela omkhulu "kwiNkosi yezindandatho." Izici ezifana nokumasha kwe- Frodo kuya phambili UMordor (ngaphambili), ubudlelwano phakathi kwe- Frodo y Sam (ubudlelwano buphila phakathi kwezikhulu namasosha abo) kanye nezidalwa ezimbi (imishini yempi yazo zonke izinhlobo) zixhumene ngokuphelele nokuhlangenwe nakho kwabo kanye nokuhlangenwe nakho kwabo okunjengempi.

Ngaphandle kokungabaza, impi icishe yenza umhlaba ungalokothi wazi "umhlaba ophakathi" nezidalwa ezihlala kuwo. Kunoma ikuphi, ngaphandle kwale mpi efanayo, impela le ndaba ibizohluka kakhulu futhi uJRR Tolkien ubengeke akwazi ukusungula umhlaba owakhanga kangaka futhi oqhubeka uthokozisa izigidi zabantu.
