  • Irúnië Fiondilo: the Freeing of Fiondil
    iRúnië Fiondilo: The Freeing of Fiondil A Bilingual Story in Dialogue Form by Arthur Austin Boccaccio Illustration by David Wyatt Copyright © 2005 1 Concerning Copyright and Other Matters Some of the persons and locations in the following story are loosely based on persons and locations described in Tolkien’s works. This is for the purpose of atmosphere only and is not intended as a reinterpretation of Tolkien’s works. This story was originally written for the author’s personal amusement as an attempt to better understand the Quenya language in all its beauty and complexity, but it is essentially a neo-Quenya text. The grammatical structure, syntax and vocabulary are mostly based on Thorsten Renk’s Quetin i lambë eldaiva, and Helge Fauskanger’s Quenya Course. Any divergence from this is based on my own interpretation of the language. Reconstructed words either from Sindarin or Common Eldarin not found in the usual wordlists are so noted. For those who find neo-Quenya untenable, may I respectfully suggest you treat the language of the text as dialectical, since it is attested that there were dialectial differences between the three groups of Elves living in Valinor. And while Quenya was never spoken in Númenor as an everyday language, for purposes of this story, this is the language of choice among the various characters. Due to the complexity of, and even uncertainty about, the Quenya pronomial system, certain editorial decisions were made. Thus, for purposes of this story, the following holds true: The second person pronomial endings are: -tyë/-t: familiar singular -ccë/-l: familiar plural -lyë/-l: polite singular -llë/-l: polite plural The third person singular pronomial endings are –ryë/-s for all genders.

News Page Vinyar Tengwar · Number January January Vinyar Tengwar · Number Page Editor’s Musings In this issue I am very pleased to publish the first part (of two) of a pre- sentation and analysis of five hitherto unpublished Quenya texts by J.R.R. Tolkien, being his translations of five Catholic prayers: the Pater Noster, the Ave Maria, the Gloria Patri, the Sub Tuum Praesidium, and the Litany of Loreto. e first three of these are presented in this issue, and the last two will be presented in the next issue. All five texts have been co-edited by Pat- rick Wynne, Arden R. Smith, and myself. As always, we are deeply indebted to Christopher Tolkien and the Tolkien Estate for providing copies of these texts for publication, and for their unstinting generosity and encouragement in support of our work. We are also grateful to John Garth for his careful proofing and many helpful comments, all of which have improved our pre- sentation. It is interesting, instructive, and a bit sobering to compare Tolkien’s trans- lations of the Pater Noster with that made by Patrick Wynne and myself and published in VT (before we were aware even of the existence of Tolkien’s version, of course), and to consider the near-hits and the many misses of our own effort.

    Name Calling: Group Identity and the Other among First Age Elves 1 ____ Name Calling: Group Identity and the Other among First Age Elves By Angelica "…languages and names are for me inextricable from the stories." (JRR Tolkien, letter to W.H.Auden from The Letters of J.R.R. Tolkien, p.214) ___ The essay "Quendi and Eldar" (1) seems to be on a first reading mainly concerned with linguistic matters: a discussion of different roots in Elvish languages and how these roots evolved into different denominations for Elves and other beings. But the discussion of these names contains a wealth of social considerations and indications about the ways the different Elvish groups considered themselves and how they related to each other. Eldar / Avari In the beginning The first name Elves gave themselves upon Awakening was Kwendi (P. Q. and C. E. the Speakers, those who form words with voices, Q. Quendi) different from the other beings who did not speak (2). This wide reference would be narrowed to the Elvish people as a whole, different from Valar and Maiar, when they met these other speaking beings, and later, back in Middle-earth, different from all other Incarnates (3). This initial uniformity of all Elves disappeared with Örome's call and the debate prior to the Separation. These were defining events in Elvish history which generated feelings of hostility and bitterness and a sense of betrayal that were never overcome but persisted along the millennia. Two groups became separate and opposite: those who rejected the call and stayed in Middle-earth (Avari, CE.

For example, the break-up of language has been seen as a metaphor for the fragmentation of original truth or purity, and the divergence of the various races of Elves is connected to the separation of their languages (Flieger, 2002). In the narrative, the two Elvish languages most used in The Lord of the Rings and The Silmarillion, Quenya and Sindarin, diverge from a shared ancestor, but evolve in isolation from each other: Quenya develops in the heavenly Undying Lands whereas Sindarin remains in Middle-Earth, a land of relative strife and hardship. Although Quenya is a language heavily influenced by the divine beings who shaped the world, it is Sindarin, curiously, which wields power in Middle-Earth, and is often used to invoke magic.
