In Chapter 5, Bilbo has the chance to kill Gollum but chooses not to. Then, in one of Tolkien's later books, it happens that—though great kings, brave warriors, and wise wizards are helpless against a terrible evil—Gollum is the only character that can save Middle-earth from destruction.
Compare the examples of the dwarves' and the goblins' prejudices with the effects of Bilbo's choice. What theme do you notice? Support your theme with examples from the text.

Hobbit is written later as a prequel to the Lord of the Rings series. In LOTR, Gollum is the key in defeating Sauron. Bilbo's choice of not killing Gollum reflects his rejection to prejudices. "He knew, of course, that the riddle-game was sacred and of immense antiquity, and even wicked creatures were afraid to cheat when they played at it. But he felt he could not trust this slimy thing to keep any promise at a pinch. Any excuse would do for him to slide out of it." Even though Bilbo knows Gollum cannot be trusted, he chose to spare him "<span>He must fight. He must stab the foul thing...Gollum had no sword...was miserable, alone, lost. </span>A sudden understanding, a pity mixed with horror, welled up in Bilbo's heart." That is when Bilbo rejects his prejudices and urge to kill Gollum. Dwarves are a good and proud race while golbins<span> are evil and wicked beings. But they both have prejudices of other beings. That has led to their mistrust of Gollum.

(a) Analyze Reread lines 208-212 of Beowulf. Identify the syntactic device used. (b) Interpret What qualities does the syntax ad
Ira Lisetskai [31]

The tone of the narrative changes from being against Beowulf to accepting him at this point in lines 208–212.

What is syntactic device?
A tool that can manipulate values, such as a computer or jeejah, is referred to as a syndev (syndev for short). Compare it to a semantic device, such as the human brain, which has the ability to manipulate values while also connecting them to more abstract concepts. If one views Gödel's [Completeness Theorem] as the tie that binds mathematics and computing science—which may be viewed as sister sciences—together, then the term "Syntactic Device" and its dualism with the concept of Semantic Device may have their roots in this dualism. In this context, computing science represents the syntactic aspect and mathematics the semantic aspect.

The reader learns that even when violence is used against a blatantly evil opponent, it still causes suffering and summons vengeance when the poem switches to Grendel's point of view during his battle with Beowulf.
