  • Tolkien's Women: the Medieval Modern in the Lord of the Rings
    Tolkien’s Women: The Medieval Modern in The Lord of the Rings Jon Michael Darga Tolkien’s Women: The Medieval Modern in The Lord of the Rings by Jon Michael Darga A thesis presented for the B.A. degree with Honors in The Department of English University of Michigan Winter 2014 © 2014 Jon Michael Darga For my cohort, for the support and for the laughter Acknowledgements My thanks go, first and foremost, to my advisor Andrea Zemgulys. She took a risk agreeing to work with a student she had never met on a book she had no academic experience in, and in doing so she gave me the opportunity of my undergraduate career. Andrea knew exactly when to provide her input and when it was best to prod and encourage me and then step out of the way; yet she was always there if I needed her, and every book that she recommended opened up a significant new argument that changed my thesis for the better. The independence and guidance she gave me has resulted in a project I am so, so proud of, and so grateful to her for. I feel so lucky to have had an advisor who could make me laugh while telling me how badly my thesis needed work, who didn’t judge me when I came to her sleep-deprived or couldn’t express myself, and who shared my passion through her willingness to join and guide me on this ride. Her constant encouragement kept me going. I also owe a distinct debt of gratitude to Gillian White, who led my cohort during the fall semester.

What did Tolkien mean by this somewhat cryptic statement, which appears in an unpublished essay titled “Notes on motives in The Silmarillion” and nowhere else, and from which the tenth volume of The History of Middle-earth takes its title? Tolkien goes on to explain that Morgoth’s power was “disseminated” throughout Middle-earth; that it was “nowhere absent” though “nowhere absolute,” and was a prerequisite for using any sort of matter towards an evil magical end. If Arda is Morgoth’s Ring, with his power infusing the whole world, and Sauron’s “relatively smaller” power is, in comparison, “concentrated” in the Ring of his own making (MR 400), what might this imply if we follow this thread to the tangled knot at its end? In Middle-earth, it seems that evil suffers a steady decline from the cosmic to the petty over the course of “the long defeat” of Arda, in the same way that Verlyn Flieger demonstrates that Light in the legendarium appears in “progressively lessening intensities [, e]ach light […] dimmer than the one before it, splintered by Tolkien’s sub-creators” (Splintered Light, 60).

  • Press Release for the Annotated Hobbit Published by Houghton
    Press Release The Annotated Hobbit by Douglas A. Anderson • Introduction • About the Author • A conversation with Douglas A. Anderson • Other Resources • Bestseller position for Tolkien-related titles January 2002 Introduction Since 1937, few books have provided more pleasure than J.R.R. Tolkien's The Hobbit. Originally published in England with a first printing of 1,500 copies, The Hobbit is now nearing its 65th anniversary, with fifty million of copies in more than forty languages. For readers throughout the world, this classic novel offers an enchanting introduction to the imaginary world of Middle-earth, home of the fantastical creatures depicted in The Lord of the Rings, The Silmarillion, and Tolkien's other captivating tales. But The Hobbit is more than an entertaining fantasy adventure story; it has significant roots in European folklore, mythology, fairy story, and language. In The Annotated Hobbit, renowned Tolkien scholar Douglas A. Anderson expertly explores these roots. Newly expanded, revised, and completely redesigned for a new generation of readers, The Annotated Hobbit is the authoritative explication of the sources, references, characters, places, and things of Tolkien's timeless novel. The many new annotations in this edition reflect more than a decade's additional scholarship on the history and evolution of The Hobbit. The Annotated Hobbit shows how Tolkien worked as a writer; what his interests and inspirations were (literary, linguistic, and otherwise); and how these pertain to the fascinating particulars of Middle-earth.

The results of suggested in the title, focused on the analysis this first questionnaire showed that, even though The of The Lord of the Rings from the perspective Lord of the Rings (for us El Señor de los Anillos) was of reader-response oriented theories. I wanted familiar by repute to most of the students, only a few to collect as many interpretations as possible of them had read it and even fewer could answer the from readers who had a special interest in The questions satisfactorily. As regards the second Lord of the Rings and, accordingly, I questionnaire, only 18 members of the Sociedad elaborated a questionnaire which members of Tolkien Española answered it, in contrast with the the British Tolkien Society and the Sociedad 181 who answered from the Tolkien Society in Tolkien Española received in September 1995.

As this is a review for the Journal of Tolkien Research, a volume with the title A Companion to J.R.R. Tolkien will undoubtedly be of interest to Tolkien students and scholars. Reviewing such a lengthy scholarly work is indeed both a daunting and equally challenging task. The reason for this is twofold: 1) the academic profile of the volume and 2) the eminent line-up of Tolkien scholars who have contributed their specific knowledge to each of the thirty-six papers in this volume.
