-----------------
lot contains :
J.R.R. Tolkien: Author of the Century (Tradepaperback) by Tom Shippey (Author)
Paperback: 384 pages Publisher: Houghton Mifflin; 1st edition (September 8, 2002)
In a wonderfully readable study aimed at not just the Tolkien fan but any literate person curious about this fantasy author's extraordinary popularity, British scholar Shippey (The Road to Middle-earth) makes an impressive, low-key case for why the creator of Middle-earth is deserving of acclaim
J.R.R. Tolkien: A Biography (Tadepaperback) by Humphrey Carpenter (Author), J.R.R. Tolkien (Editor)
Paperback: 304 pages Publisher: Houghton Mifflin (June 2000)
There may be a corner of the world where the name J.R.R. Tolkien is unknown, but you would be hard-pressed to find it. Since their publication, The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings have been published in every major language of the world. And though he single-handedly gave a mythology to the English and was beloved by millions, John Ronald Reuel Tolkien remained refreshingly unchanged by his fame and fortune, living out his days simply and modestly among the familiar surroundings of Oxford College. Humphrey Carpenter, who was given unrestricted access to Tolkien's papers, brilliantly puts meat to the bones of the Tolkien legend in J.R.R. Tolkien: A Biography, offering a well-rounded portrayal of this quiet, bookish man who always saw himself first and foremost as a philologist, uncovering rather than creating the peoples, languages, and adventures of Middle-Earth.
