"The Scouring of the Shire" is the penultimate chapter of J. R. R. Tolkien's fantasy The Lord of the Rings. The Fellowship hobbits, Frodo, Sam, Merry, and Pippin, return home to the Shire to find that it is under the brutal control of ruffians and their leader "Sharkey", revealed to be the Wizard Saruman. The ruffians have despoiled the Shire, cutting down trees and destroying old houses, as well as replacing the old mill with a larger one full of machinery which pollutes the air and the water. The hobbits rouse the Shire to rebellion, lead their fellow-hobbits to victory in the Battle of Bywater, and end Saruman's rule.

  • El saneamiento de la Comarca es un evento ficticio de la novela El Señor de los Anillos creado por el escritor británico J. R. R. Tolkien, y que tiene lugar al final del libro El Retorno del Rey. Dentro del marco ficticio, la acción transcurre entre el 31 de octubre del año 3019 T. E. y la primavera de 3021 T. E.. El Saneamiento tuvo lugar debido a que los hombres de Saruman, con ayuda de Otho Sacovilla-Bolsón tomaron la Comarca e instauraron un régimen de tiranía. Posteriormente, los hobbits Merry, Pippin, Sam y Frodo llegaron a la Comarca tras su viaje, y al encontrarse con dicha situación, decidieron organizar una rebelión para echar a Zarquino, al Jefe y a los hombres de sus tierras. La última fase fueron los trabajos de reconstrucción y reforestación que llevaron a cabo los hobbits, encabezados por Sam, para devolver a la Comarca su antigua cara. En la adaptación cinematográfica de Peter Jackson de El Señor de los Anillos, se omite todo el Saneamiento: Saruman muere a manos de Gríma en Orthanc, y este por una flecha de Legolas; y cuando llegan a la Comarca todo está igual que como antes de partir. Sin embargo, hay una alusión al Saneamiento en la visión que tiene Frodo en el Espejo de Galadriel en la Comunidad del Anillo, aunque en el libro, quien realmente tiene la visión es Sam. (es)
  • "The Scouring of the Shire" is the penultimate chapter of J. R. R. Tolkien's fantasy The Lord of the Rings. The Fellowship hobbits, Frodo, Sam, Merry, and Pippin, return home to the Shire to find that it is under the brutal control of ruffians and their leader "Sharkey", revealed to be the Wizard Saruman.

The hobbits rouse the Shire to rebellion, lead their fellow-hobbits to victory in the Battle of Bywater, and end Saruman's rule. Critics have considered "The Scouring of the Shire" the most important chapter in The Lord of the Rings. Tolkien denied that the chapter was an allegory of the state of Britain during the aftermath of World War II. Commentators and critics have however seen it as applicable to that period, with clear contemporary political references, which in their opinions include a satire of socialism; echoes of Nazism; allusions to the shortages in postwar Britain; and a strand of environmentalism. The idea of such a chapter was, as Tolkien stated, planned from the outset, as part of the overall formal structure of The Lord of the Rings, though its details were not worked out until much later. The book's central theme is going out on the physical quest to destroy the One Ring, to be balanced by a chapter on returning home on the moral quest to purify the Shire and to take responsibility for oneself. However, the actual addition of Saruman to this part of the story, as the reason why the Shire should need to be scoured, came very late in Tolkien's composition; he considered other identities for the wicked Sharkey before settling on Saruman. The chapter, which has been called one of the most famous anticlimaxes in literature, has been left out of all film adaptations of the novel, except, in The Lord of the Rings film trilogy, as a brief flash-forward when Frodo looks into the crystal ball-like Mirror of Galadriel, and for the death of Saruman, which is transposed to Isengard.

  • 收復夏爾(英語:The Scouring of the Shire)是英國作家J·R·R·托爾金小說《魔戒》第三部《王者再臨》的第十八章。哈比人佛羅多、山姆、梅里和皮聘回到了家鄉夏爾,發現它已被薩魯曼指揮的一幫人類流氓所佔據。 作者托爾金指出收復夏爾這一章節並不是隱喻第一次世界大戰後的英格蘭,但它的靈感有部分來自於他自己早年的的經歷: 「筆者童年所居住的鄉間,在十歲之前就已慘遭破壞,那時汽車還是稀有的交通工具(筆者當時從沒見到),人們還在興建郊區的鐵路系統。最近,筆者湊巧在一份報紙上看見一張照片,那是當年對我相當重要、曾經興盛一時的一座磨坊及其池塘沒落殘破的最後一景。筆者從來不喜歡磨坊小主人,但是他父親,磨坊的老主人,有一把黑鬍子,而且名字不叫山迪曼。」 (zh)
