National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. Draft International Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote. Amendment 18 to ISO/IEC 10646-1:1993 was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology, Subcommittee SC 2, Coded character sets.

  • Editors' Introduction
    Editors’ Introduction This is the 14th issue of Tolkien Studies, the first refereed journal solely devoted to the scholarly study of the works of J.R.R. Tolkien. As edi- tors, our goal is to publish excellent scholarship on Tolkien as well as to gather useful research information, reviews, notes, documents, and bibliographical material. All articles have been subject to anonymous, external review as well as receiving a positive judgment by the Editors. In the cases of articles by individuals associated with the journal in any way, each article had to receive at least two positive evaluations from two dif fer ent outside reviewers. Reviewer comments wer e anonymously conveyed to the au- thors of the articles. The Editors agreed to be bound by the recommen- dations of the outside referees. Although they are solicited and edited by the editors, book reviews represent the judgments of the individ- ual reviewers, not Tolkien Studies. Michael D. C. Drout Verlyn Flieger David Bratman 1 Acknowl edgments The Editors would like to thank Wheaton College, Norton, MA and Wheaton Research Partners for their support. Thanks also to Rowan Lowell, Paula Smith- MacDonald, Vaughn Howland, Raquel D’Oyen, and Berni Phillips, and also to West V irginia University Press, Derek Krissoff, Than Saffel, and Jason Gosnell. Fi nally, we acknowledge a special debt of gratitude to our anony- mous, outside reviewers who with their collegial ser vice contribute so much to Tolkien Studies. 2 In Memoriam Tolkien Studies notes the passing of Richard L(awrence) Purtill (1931– 2016), who died on December 4, 2016.
