Magic in Middle Earth?
I was just wondering about magic in M-E, was the Istari , Maiar, Valar, Ring-bearers, and some of Morguth/Saurons creations the only ones that could use magic, I cant seem to recall anybody else.
I always thought it was Elrond himself(with his own magic powers), that helped Frodo across the Ford by Rivendell, but I read that it was the ring, Vilya’s power in doing that ( but in the movie I believe it is Arwen that seems to be casting a spell on the Nazgul/Ford). Did the Rangers have any magic powers, and any Elves or Men, without the use of an item/artifact? Quote:
And who made all the artifacts(Besides the rings of course)? Just some more silly questions! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] Gandalf

There's a lot about Tolkien's use of the word "magic", and what it meant in his stories in The Letters of J.R.R. Tolkien. Here's a quote you may be interested in:
