Resumen
This study aims to analyze the heroic journey of the main character in The Lord of the Rings (2003), by J. R. R. Tolkien, Frodo Baggins. This will take into account the theory of Joseph Campbell’s theory in A Hero with a Thousand Faces (2007), which develops a study of the heroic journey, enabling the understanding of how Frodo is established as a hero, how his journey and quest for freedom develop. The "One Ring", the object responsible for Frodo’s journey, will be analyzed according its power in the story in order to justify the role the object plays and what it symbolizes according to Vries (1976) and Chevalier (2006). Besides providing a new reading of the novel, this analysis seeks to enhance the study of the works of J. R. R. Tolkien, which has gradually recognized in the academic field.
