'A Merrier World:' Small Renaissances Engendered in J. R. R. Tolkien's Legendarium Abstract After surviving the trenches of World War I when many of his friends did not, Tolkien continued as the rest of the world did: moving, growing, and developing, putting the darkness of war behind. He had children, taught at the collegiate level, wrote, researched. Then another Great War knocked on the global door. His sons marched off, and Britain was again consumed. The "War to End All Wars" was repeating itself and nothing was for certain. In such extended dark times, J. R. R. Tolkien drew on what he knew-language, philology, myth, and human rights-peering back in history to the mythologies and legends of old while igniting small movements in modern thought. Arthurian, Beowulfian, African, and Egyptian myths all formed a bedrock for his Legendarium, and fantasy-fiction as we now know it was rejuvenated.Just like the artists, authors, and thinkers from the Late Medieval period, Tolkien summoned old thoughts to craft new creations that would cement themselves in history forever.

  • 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.

[no US edition.] During the past decade or so there has been something of a fashion for issuing standalone editions of J.R.R. Tolkien’s shorter works, usually accompanied by Tolkien’s notes, drafts, and/or associated writings, as well as a critical introduction and commentary. Many of these—from Smith of Wootton Major in 2005 to last year’s The Lay of Aotrou and Itroun—have dealt with Tolkien’s fiction, but his academic works have not been wholly neglected.

Gorelick [email protected] (305) 348-4100 DM 233 *The instructor welcomes and encourages students to utilize office hours by appointment. Required Texts Students will be responsible for reading the following works by J.R.R. Tolkien: The poem, “Mythopoëia,” to be provided by the instructor. The essay, “On Faërie-Stories,” and the short story, “Leaf by Niggle”, in The Tolkien Reader (Del Rey, 1986) | ISBN 9780345345066 The short story, “Smith of Wootton Major”, in Smith of Wootton Major and Farmer Giles of Ham (Del Rey, 1986) | ISBN 9780345336064 The Silmarillion (Del Rey, 1985) | ISBN 9780345325815 The Hobbit (Del Rey, 2012) | ISBN 9780345538376 (This ISBN is for the four-book boxed edition containing The Lord of the Rings. Since students will need The Lord of the Rings for the spring semester, purchasing the boxed set now would be economical. However, in the instructor’s opinion, it is preferable to read a one-volume version of The Lord of the Ring than to read it in three separate volumes, which would mean buying a freestanding copy of The Hobbit for the fall.) PLEASE NOTE: any editions of these works by Tolkien are acceptable. The instructor does not recommend renting or selling back these gems. Students will be expected to reference them as needed during the spring semester.

It seems that understanding of J.R.R. Tolkien and his books is growing very slowly in Russia. There have never been any professional literary works on Tolkien or the problems of translating his works.

  • Der Herr Der Ringe Band 1: Die Gefährten
    DER HERR DER RINGE BAND I Drei Ringe den Elbenkönigen hoch im Licht, Sieben den Zwergenherrschern in ihren Hallen aus Stein, Den Sterblichen, ewig dem Tode verfallen, neun, Einer dem Dunklen Herrn auf dunklem Thron Im Lande Mordor, wo die Schatten dröhn. Ein Ring, sie zu knechten, sie alle zu finden, Ins Dunkel zu treiben und ewig zu binden Im Lande Mordor, wo die Schatten dröhn. VORWORT Diese Erzählung wuchs und wuchs, während ich sie erzählte, bis sie zur Geschichte des Großen Ringkrieges wurde, in der immer wieder die noch ältere Geschichte flüchtig auftauchte. Ich hatte damit begonnen, kurz nachdem Der Hobbit geschrieben und noch ehe das Buch 1937 erschienen war; aber dann fuhr ich mit der Erzählung nicht fort, denn zuerst wollte ich die Mythologie und Legenden der Altvorderenzeit, die damals schon seit einigen Jahren Gestalt angenommen hatten, vervollständigen und ordnen. Das wollte ich gern zu meiner eigenen Freude tun, und ich hatte wenig Hoffnung, daß andere Leute sich für diese Arbeit interessieren würden, zumal sie in erster Linie sprachwissenschaftlich inspiriert war und ursprünglich darauf zielte, den notwendigen »geschichtlichen« Hin- tergrund für die Elbensprachen zu schaffen. Als jene, die ich um Rat und ihre Meinung befragte, mich berichtigten, daß nicht wenig Hoffnung, sondern gar keine Hoffnung bestünde, nahm ich dann die Erzählung wieder auf, ermutigt durch die Bitten von Lesern, ihnen mehr über Hobbits und ihre Abenteuer zu sagen. Aber die Dar- stellung wurde unwiderstehlich zur älteren Welt hingezogen und wurde gleichsam zu einem Bericht über deren Ende und Vergehen, bevor ihr Be- ginn und die Zwischenzeit erzählt waren.
