Why does Thorin refuse Bard his requests for treasure in The Hobbit?
Thorin was a proud and stubborn dwarf, and like all dwarves was a bit too fond of his gold. The notion of sharing his fathers' hard won treasure with anyone, even the Lake Men, was not to be borne.Basically Thorin is overwhelmed by greed for the wealth of Smaug's hoard. There is far more wealth than he could possibly use, but rather than share it with his neighbours, he wants it all to himself.But although this is at the bottom of his behaviour, there is some sense in his anger. He must feel like a man who has won the lottery, and all of a sudden, everyone is his friend and wants a piece of the winnings. Indeed there can be no doubt that that is exactly why Bard and the Elvenking have come to the mountain, believing Thorin and his companions to be dead. Greed is pretty high in their minds too. Thorin's response to the Elvenking is particularly telling--why should Thorin be nice to a guy who locked him in the dungeons. (Ironically, Thorin was apprehended by the elves for begging)
