Who does Bilbo represent?
Due to the fact that the author of the Lord of the Rings, J.R.R. Tolkien, was Roman Catholic, I believe that the wizard Gandalf represented Jesus. In the course of the Lord of the Rings, Gandalf: a.) sacrificed himself for his friends in the Mines of Moria like Jesus did on the cross; b.) wrestled a great evil into submission as Jesus did so that people could go to Heaven; c.) came back to life to "complete his task in the world" as Jesus did; and d.) left to go to the Middle-earth equivalent to Heaven with the elves as Jesus left to return to Heaven. Gandalf's personality is also equivalent to what some people believe Jesus' was like: wise, kind, powerful in a quiet sort of way, and he loved his friends so much that he was willing to die for their sake. However, Tolkien disliked allegory and had no desire to equate his characters with other people or persons. In a much more generic sense, Gandalf represents a stock character in the Heroic tradition: the Mentor. This powerful, wise, benevolent, older sage seems to come out of nowhere with advice, wisdom and humor. Although he is NOT the hero, per se, he is immensely important to the protagonist achieving his goal. Other examples in fiction include Merlin the Magician and Yoda from Star Wars, although there are many, many others.
