Tolkien inevitably leads to a question of belief, that is, the question of whether readers actually believe in the fictional world and how that experience of belief generates meaning. Much of the scholarship on fantasy literature is very interested in this question, beginning with Tolkien’s own discussions of “Secondary belief” in his essay “On Faiy- Stories.” The existing criticism has succeeded in establishing a lexicon of terms that describes how a work of fantasy conveys meaning.

  • You Have 1000CP
    You are heading to the dark land of Mordor in the realm of Middle-earth. The events that are set to transpire here are some time between the events of the Hobbit and those of the Lord of the Rings but as a whole do not really fit into Tolkien’s canon. Until recently the rangers of Gondor held the Black Gate of Mordor and all was relatively quiet in the land of shadow. Orc activity seemed on the increase and now they have taken back the gate as the first step in consolidating a power that will threaten the whole of Middle-earth. You arrive just as a Gondorian Ranger of the Black Gate called Talion is revived and inhabited by the wraith of the long dead Ñoldorin prince Celebrimbor. Together the two of them will cut a swathe through the ranks of the uruk in a quest to hinder Sauron and avenge Talion’s butchered family. Elsewhere the white wizard Saruman is already looking enviously towards Mordor and has many spies both amongst the people and some of the fauna. Within Mordor the uruks dominate much of the landscape, building great forts and war machines to prepare for the wars to come. The Rangers of the Black Gate are all but destroyed but remnants within the Outcasts of Udûn hold desperately to their lives and freedom. The vast amount of the human population of Mordor has been enslaved but the Tribesmen of Núrn in the southeast continue to resist the orcs. The shadow of Mount Doom falls upon you.

  • SCA Circlet of Lordship, Sterling Silver with Amber and Sapphires
    Artisan’s Name: Lord Snorri skyti Bjarnarson, MKA David Haldenwang, [email protected] Title of Project: SCA Circlet of Lordship, sterling silver with amber and sapphires Overview: I really like shiny things. I decided I needed more shiny things, but pretty shiny things are extremely expensive. I figured I’d kill two birds with one stone and learn to make more shiny things myself, while saving some money. I chose to make a circlet for myself because it gave me the opportunity to make something particularly visible and gaudy. I used sterling silver, 14k gold, and fine silver, because only thralls wear brass, and chose sapphire and amber cabochons to mount on it, because my arms are Or and Azure. I chose to use seven gems, for the simple reason that seven is not six – I do not want this mistaken for a Baronial coronet. Historical Basis: Some of the earliest forms of headgear worn to denote royalty or nobility are the diadems worn by the ancient Greeksi. These are still preserved in museums, and illustrated on many coins of the era. For example, this coin, of Antiochus III of the Selucid Empire (ca. 223 BC – 187 BC), shows him wearing a diadem, and bears the inscription in Greek ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ ΑΝΤΙΟΧΟΥ, of King Antiochusii: While these diadems started as simple ribbons or wreaths, worn upon the head for ceremonial or religious reasonsiii, by the 4th century, it was fairly common for rulers in the Greek world to wear a golden wreath on their head as a symbol of nobility or even divinity – because many depictions of the Greek pantheon showed the gods wearing wreaths: Heracles with wreath of white poplar leavesiv: There is also the story of Apollo and the nymph Daphne, from Ovid’s Metamorphoses, in which she is pursued by Apollo and turns herself into a laurel tree.

  • Norse Monstrosities in the Monstrous World of J.R.R. Tolkien
    Norse Monstrosities in the Monstrous World of J.R.R. Tolkien Robin Veenman BA Thesis Tilburg University 18/06/2019 Supervisor: David Janssens Second reader: Sander Bax Abstract The work of J.R.R. Tolkien appears to resemble various aspects from Norse mythology and the Norse sagas. While many have researched these resemblances, few have done so specifically on the dark side of Tolkien’s work. Since Tolkien himself was fascinated with the dark side of literature and was of the opinion that monsters served an essential role within a story, I argue that both the monsters and Tolkien’s attraction to Norse mythology and sagas are essential phenomena within his work. Table of Contents Abstract Acknowledgements 3 Introduction 4 Chapter one: Tolkien’s Fascination with Norse mythology 7 1.1 Introduction 7 1.2 Humphrey Carpenter: Tolkien’s Biographer 8 1.3 Concrete Examples From Jakobsson and Shippey 9 1.4 St. Clair: an Overview 10 1.5 Kuseela’s Theory on Gandalf 11 1.6 Chapter Overview 12 Chapter two: The monsters Compared: Midgard vs Middle-earth 14 2.1 Introduction 14 2.2 Dragons 15 2.3 Dwarves 19 2.4 Orcs 23 2.5 Wargs 28 2.6 Wights 30 2.7 Trolls 34 2.8 Chapter Conclusion 38 Chapter three: The Meaning of Monsters 41 3.1 Introduction 41 3.2 The Dark Side of Literature 42 3.3 A Horrifically Human Fascination 43 3.4 Demonstrare: the Applicability of Monsters 49 3.5 Chapter Conclusion 53 Chapter four: The 20th Century and the Northern Warrior-Ethos in Middle-earth 55 4.1 Introduction 55 4.2 An Author of His Century 57 4.3 Norse Warrior-Ethos 60 4.4 Chapter Conclusion 63 Discussion 65 Conclusion 68 Bibliography 71 2 Acknowledgements First and foremost I have to thank the person who is evidently at the start of most thesis acknowledgements -for I could not have done this without him-: my supervisor.
