However, a very clear example of the performative use of description can be found in J. R. R. Tolkien's The Two Towers, where the good wizard Gandalf breaks the traitor wizard Saruman's staff (both a symbol and an instrument of his power) by saying Saruman, your staff is broken, an utterance couched in a purely descriptive form.

It is strange reading your own professor's work for a class, knowing that she's going to talk about it, but I find myself really liking this piece. This is rather surprising given that I so dislike her teaching/lecturing style. It seems that she is much better at explaining her thoughts in extensively revised written work. Plus, I can't help but love a good LotR reference!
