Although political significance may be read into some of the more influential fantasies of our century, it is notable how successfully our fabulists have sheered away from ideology in an age of political religions. Some critics may identify the evil power in Tolkienâs Lord of the Rings with Nazi or Communist dominations; yet Tolkien himself did not intend to be bound by yesterdayâs or todayâs ideological encounters. His three volumes are a picture of the perpetual struggle between good and evil; his concern is the corrupting intoxication of power.19
