What role does respectability play in the narrator's assessment of Bilbo in the hobbit?

Great question! Because Bilbo Baggins is so "respectable," and is not the sort who has adventures of any kind, it makes his later behavior stand out in stark contrast when he finds himself doing all sorts of "adventurous" things, like fighting spiders in the forest, and riding barrels to Laketown.


Why didn't Bilbo kill Gollum?

"It was pity that stayed Bilbo's blade." --Gandalf"Pity stayed his hand." Gollum was so pathetic that Bilbo didn't have the heart to harm him, especially as he (Bilbo) was invisible at the time.


When did Bilbo Baggins fulfill his burglar role in The Hobbit?

What treasure does Bilbo take from the dragon and why?

Because the dragon had taken the treasure from the dwarfs, so they wanted to reclaim as much of it as they could.Answer:Tolkien's dwarves are patterned after the Germanic and Norse dwarves. It is the nature of such dwarves to want as much treasure as they can get and keep it, this is much the same as the nature of dragons. Unlike dragons who saw the possession of gold as a good thing in itself and mostly sat and slept on their huge hoard, dwarves were skilled metal workers and viewed the treasure they hoarded as valuable for both its intrinsic value and its role as a raw material for their metal working. The magic of gold and jewels were essential for the amulets and weapons they produced.

Why isn't there much to say about the Last Homely House in the 'The Hobbit'?

Rivendell was not central to the story of Bilbo and the Dwarves and the quest for Erebor. Elrond played a minor role in that he deciphered the moon letters but was not part of the quest. Rivendell was a place of refuge and contemplation, not a camp for war. Elrond spent most of the third age being a councilor not a hero.
