Abstract

Dunsire shares thoughts and reflections on witchcraft through speculum in Middle-Earth. Plantir, The Seven Stones, the Ring, and the Mirror of Galadriel were all used in different ways to scry and communicate throughout Middle-Earth. The essay later explains the individuality and self-determination of the plantiri, along with explaining Frodo’s visions from the Mirror.
