In Reply to: I thought the review was fine posted by Bulkington on December 22, 2003 at 12:22:07:
with a light twist: “for none of woman born/ Shall harm Macbethâ€, just making it "no man can kill me"... men being the ones who had power, Tolkien gave the role to a woman..., and the same situation Macbeth faces when he learns that Macduff was not born from a woman but instead: “Macduff was from his mother’s womb/Untimely rippedâ€, is exactly the same that ill creature meets, just before it dies, as Macbeth did, at the hands of the daughter/son of a good man he had killed...There´s another parallel, adding to this, and it comes when that wood rises in arms against Saruman, again the same as in Macbeth:“Macbeth shall never vanquished be until/ Great Birnam Wood to high Dunsinane Hill/ Shall come against himâ€...
Yes, Tolkien drank from different springwells, and then combined what he took in some wise ways...
