Description
Very Short Introductions: Brilliant, Sharp, InspiringJ.R.R. Tolkien was the author of two of the most extraordinary, most original, and most popular books of the twentieth century: The Hobbit, and The Lord of the Rings. The encounter with his works has had profound and far-reaching consequences for millions of readers, who have experienced a form of re-enchantment in the midst of the modern world. Tolkien''s works have opened a door to myth, folklore, and fairy tale, and to the discovery of what we now call fantasy literature. He is also a writer who has changed our common culture. This Very Short Introduction by Matthew Townend offers an accessible and authoritative guide to the full range of Tolkien''s extensive writings, including his academic and posthumously published work. It places Tolkien''s writing in the time and context of their composition, and it takes a thematic approach by exploring recurrent ideas and preoccupations in his writings. Throughout the author offers new ideas and insights on Tolkien.ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.
