| Hey there, fellow travelers! I’ve got some exciting news: my new book Tolkien’s Tragedy: Concerning Númenor, The Rings of Power, and the Second Age is finally here.This has been years in the making. In fact, when I first started outlining it, Amazon’s Rings of Power series hadn’t even been announced. Now we’re two seasons in, and I think this book offers insights that are more timely than ever.The full text is almost finished, but I’m still deciding on the best way to publish it. For now, I’m sharing it chapter by chapter over on my new Substack — that’s TolkienRoad.Substack.com. You can read the introduction and first chapter for free, and if you’d like to go deeper, you can get the rest with a Patreon or Substack membership.What you’re about to hear is the introduction to Tolkien’s Tragedy. I can’t wait to share it with you, and I’d love to hear your thoughts.So, head over to TolkienRoad.Substack.com to follow along — and now, let’s dive in!Become a supporter of this podcast: http...

It is also quite tragic, as we shall see. After giving a bit of background on Túrin’s ancestry, it picks up where the last chapter left off, with Túrin’s father Húrin imprisoned in Angband.

I was recently a guest on the Lore of the Rings podcast - that's L-O-R-E - where I joined host Aaron to discuss the ways in which Lord of the Rings is a "fundamentally religous work".We uncovered:- The grace Faramir says before sharing a meal with Frodo and Sam.- The liturgical significance of March 25 — the day the One Ring was destroyed.- The mysterious Three Prayers of Númenor, preserved in Unfinished Tales.- Why Tolkien preferred absorbed symbolism over overt allegory.I wanted to share a portion of this interview on The Tolkien Road's podcast feed, but you really need to go check out the whole thing over on Aaron's feed.Listen to the whole episode: https://www.ringspodcast.com/190-why-and-how-the-lord-of-the-rings-is-a-religious-and-catholic-work/Enjoy!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreake...

| In The Tolkien Road Episode 396, we review The War of the Rohirrim, the newly released animated Middle-earth film from Executive Producer Peter Jackson!I have to be honest: the first 2 seasons of The Rings of Power were so painfully bad that I was not feeling enthusiastic about The War of the Rohirrim going into seeing it last night.The one spark of hope that I felt was the knowledge that it had Peter Jackson as an Executive Producer, and that it had nothing to do with Amazon Studios.We stayed away from the marketing and from others’ thoughts and opinions, hoping to go into it with as much fresh perspective as we could garner.So what did we think?

I listened because I couldn’t help myself, if you know what I mean. Lor bless me, sir, but I do love tales of that sort. And I believe them too, whatever Ted may say. Elves, sir! I would dearly love to see them. Couldn’t you take me to see Elves, sir, when you go?’In this episode of DO NOT BE HASTY, we conclude our journey through The Shadow of the Past, as Frodo decides on his course of action, and finds himself with a surprise traveling companion.SECTION START: “There was a long silence.”SECTION END: the end of the chapterEXECUTIVE PRODUCERS:- Kaitlyn of Tea with Tolkien- John R- KG- Eärendil HopeWATCH THE VIDEO » https://youtu.be/WrG6NRhqyH0WATCH / LIS...

| Hey there, fellow travelers!Welcome to The Tolkien Road, episode 386!In this bonus episode of DO NOT BE HASTY, we’ll conclude our jaunt through the Prologue to The Lord of the Rings by exploring the sections “Of the Finding of the Ring” and “Note on Shire Records”!The final two sections of the Lord of the Rings’ Prologue essentially serve to connect the story’s beginning with the events of The Hobbit, or There and Back Again, as it’s known “in-universe”.In so doing, we’re given a glimpse into the tricksy details and false accounts that yield a deeper insight into the operation of the One Ring.Join us!EXECUTIVE PRODUCERS:- Kaitlyn of Tea with Tolkien- John R- KG- SaberSystems- Jeremy D- Eärendil HopeWATCH THE VIDEO » https://youtu.be/mm0yzHGQFQQWATCH AD-FREE » https://www.patreon.com/posts/109837693LISTEN AD-FREE » https://www.patreon.com/posts/109837304FOLLOW & SUPPORT THE TOLKIEN ROAD:PATREON » SUPERFANS!TWITTERFACEBOOKINSTAGRAMLINKS & MATHOMS:- take 10% OFF Tolkien Road merch at T...

| Hey there, fellow travelers! Welcome to The Tolkien Road, episode 385!In this bonus episode of DO NOT BE HASTY, we’ll continue through the Prologue to The Lord of the Rings by exploring the sections “Concerning Pipe-weed” and “Of the Ordering of the Shire”!As we discovered in the last episode, the Prologue to The Lord of the Rings contains matters which don’t, at first, seem to matter much to the overall narrative arc of the story itself.However, for Tolkien, the background and details matter immensely. It’s why we wound up, for example, with a large volume of Tolkien’s notes concerning things like the aging process of Elves as well as the flora and fauna of Númenor.For Tolkien, Middle-earth became an increasingly REAL place. Not that he was crazy - instead, I’d say his creative process was informed by a strong mystical streak.While the titles of these sections may seem very dry, there are details herein which will serve to deepen our appreciation of the intricate narrative tapestry...

| In this episode, we consider the reign of Tar-Atanamir, the 13th ruler of Númenor.We learn here that Atanamir was given the epithet “The Great”. Yet we also learn that he was given another - “The Unwilling”.I have to admit, it’s not entirely clear to me why Tar-Atanamir deserved to be called “The Great”, though I will explore that issue in this episode.And we will certainly discuss why he was called “The Unwilling.”At the end of the day, one thing is for certain: Atanamir’s reign was of major consequence for the people of Númenor, as his long for immortality began to sow the seeds of discontent, restlessness, and malice toward the Eldar, the Valar, and ultimately Ilúvatar Himself.Join us!WATCH THE VIDEO » https://youtu.be/fXPQG4LYlGYWATCH AD-FREE » https://www.patreon.com/posts/ad-free-video-of-92694652LISTEN AD-FREE » https://www.patreon.com/posts/tar-atanamirs-of-92694956EXECUTIVE PRODUCERS:- Kaitlyn of Tea with Tolkien- John R- SaberSystems- Melkor27- KGFOLLOW & SUPPORT THE TOLKI...

| This chapter concludes the era of Aldarion, one of the most important kings in the history of Númenor. As we learned in the last episode, his father, Tar-Meneldur, chose to turn the rule of Númenor over to Aldarion earlier than was normal, due to a letter from the Elven High-King Gil-galad. asking for Númenor’s aid amidst the increasingly dire situation in Middle-earth. In this chapter, we’ll explore Aldarion’s reign, as well as what becomes of his wife Erendis and daughter Ancalimë.WATCH THE VIDEO » https://youtu.be/wOznMB_I9fQEXECUTIVE PRODUCERS:- Kaitlyn of Tea with Tolkien- John R- Jacob Lockham- John H- Melkor27- KGDISCUSSION EPISODES ON THE MARINER'S WIFE / ALDARION & ERENDIS: - EP183: https://youtu.be/Ey76ckHwROE - EP185: https://youtu.be/l83a6Idacg4 - EP186: https://youtu.be/NgcX2-QOmSI - EP187: https://youtu.be/8HzR-raLIjcFOLLOW & SUPPORT THE TOLKIEN ROAD:PATREON » SUPERFANS!TWITTERFACEBOOKINSTAGRAMLINKS & MATHOMS:- take 10% OFF Tolkien Road merch at True Myths Press » http...

| This chapter continues the story of Aldarion, destined to be Númenor’s 6th King. While it begins with the wedding, long-expected, of Aldarion and Erendis, it concludes with many events unexpected, including word from Gil-galad to the King of Númenor regarding “ a new shadow arising in the East”. This is a long chapter dense with nuance and character development, perhaps the richest glimpse we get into the various psyches of Númenoreans as individuals, and while I’d love to give it a much more in depth reading, I’m only going to hit the high points as regards this history of Númenor. However, if you’d like a more in-depth discussion of this story between me and Greta, please check out the notes, or just go back and find episodes 183, 185, 186, and 187.WATCH THE VIDEO » https://youtu.be/Ega_4eoLio4EXECUTIVE PRODUCERS:- Kaitlyn of Tea with Tolkien- John R- Jacob Lockham- John H- Melkor27- KGFOLLOW & SUPPORT THE TOLKIEN ROAD:PATREON » SUPERFANS!TWITTERFACEBOOKINSTAGRAMLINKS & MATHOMS:- ...

| Over the next 3 episodes in our Fall of Númenor series, we’ll return to the story of Aldarion, whom we met 2 episodes ago. Aldarion is the son of Tar-Meneldur and the expectant heir to Númenor's throne. But as we will learn, he is a man torn between a deep longing for the sea and his destiny as Númenor’s king. We have in fact covered this story before, in great detail, in episodes 183, 185, 186, and 187. For a more detailed discussion of the story itself, I’ll refer you to to those episodes. Check the show notes for more info. However, in this episode, I’d like to touch on some of the prevailing themes in this story that relate to the larger story of Númenor, and unpack some key passages from this chapter.WATCH THE VIDEO » https://youtu.be/eUbGHjoOeEYEXECUTIVE PRODUCERS:- Kaitlyn of Tea with Tolkien- John R- Jacob Lockham- John H- Melkor27- KGFOLLOW & SUPPORT THE TOLKIEN ROAD:PATREON » SUPERFANS!TWITTERFACEBOOKINSTAGRAMLINKS & MATHOMS:- take 10% OFF Tolkien Road merch at True Myths ...

| In this episode, we’re continuing our journey through The Fall of Númenor by exploring the year SA750, when Eregion was founded by the Noldor.750 years into the Second Age, things are relatively peaceful. Númenor’s benevolent influence is extending into the lands once ruled by Morgoth’s minions, and there is little news of war or misery. However, with the shadow of Morgoth now a fading memory, a new power begins to stir, and Elvish craftsmen dream anew of beauty that will influence the fate of Middle-earth.WATCH THE VIDEO » https://youtu.be/eUbGHjoOeEYEXECUTIVE PRODUCERS:- Kaitlyn of Tea with Tolkien- John R- Jacob Lockham- John H- Melkor27- KGFOLLOW & SUPPORT THE TOLKIEN ROAD:PATREON » SUPERFANS!TWITTERFACEBOOKINSTAGRAMLINKS & MATHOMS:- take 10% OFF Tolkien Road merch at True Myths Press » https://truemythspress.com/discount/TENOFF (enter code TENOFF at checkout)- listen to TOLKIEN'S WORKS for FREE » https://www.audibletrial.com/everon- buy Tolkien's Requiem » https://tolkiensrequi...

| In this episode, we’re continuing our journey through The Fall of Númenor by exploring The Voyages of Aldarion, the grandson of Vëantur, and future King of Númenor. While we don’t have any narratives from the Second Age on the scale of Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, or even some of the greater legends of The Silmarillion, we do have the better part of one story concerning the people of Númenor: the tale of Aldarion and Erendis, aka The Mariner’s Wife. In this chapter, we’re introduced to the figure of Aldarion and his great longing for the sea, and the tensions this longing will introduce into the history of Númenor.WATCH THE VIDEO » https://youtu.be/dq59vV9EOwsEXECUTIVE PRODUCERS:- Kaitlyn of Tea with Tolkien- John R- Jacob Lockham- John H- Melkor27- KGFOLLOW & SUPPORT THE TOLKIEN ROAD:PATREON » SUPERFANS!TWITTERFACEBOOKINSTAGRAMLINKS & MATHOMS:- take 10% OFF Tolkien Road merch at True Myths Press » https://truemythspress.com/discount/TENOFF (enter code TENOFF at checkout)- listen ...

| Happy Easter everyone! (we're Catholic, and so was Tolkien, so it's still Easter...) In this episode, we read Samwise's astonished awakening in The Field of Cormallen after the destruction of the One Ring, and discuss how it relates to the overwhelming joy of Easter. “The Resurrection was the greatest ‘eucatastrophe’ possible in the greatest Fairy Story – and produces that essential emotion: Christian joy which produces tears because it is qualitatively so like sorrow, because it comes from those places where Joy and Sorrow are at one, reconciled, as selfishness and altruism are lost in Love.” ~ J.R.R.

| What was it like to be an every day Númenorean? How did it feel to be one of that blessed number who were able to enjoy a much longer lifespan in an island paradise? While these details may not seem of particular importance in advancing the story of Númenor’s downfall, they do help us to better grasp the significance of being Númenorean, and to juxtapose life in Land of Gift with our everyday lives. Perhaps, through these details, we can arrive at a better characterization of Númenorean culture, so that we can more deeply understand the root causes of her Downfall.WATCH THE VIDEO » https://youtu.be/sfW8U3uLXOgEXECUTIVE PRODUCERS:- Kaitlyn of Tea with Tolkien- John R- Jacob Lockham- John H- Eru27FOLLOW & SUPPORT THE TOLKIEN ROAD:PATREON » SUPERFANS!TWITTERFACEBOOKINSTAGRAMLINKS & MATHOMS:- take 10% OFF Tolkien Road merch at True Myths Press » https://truemythspress.com/discount/TENOFF (enter code TENOFF at checkout)- listen to TOLKIEN'S WORKS for FREE » https://www.audibletrial.com/e...

| This is the third episode in my series exploring The Fall of Númenor, the recently published collection of Second Age writings, edited by Brian Sibley.“Before The Second Age” is, in a way, the book’s second introduction. Here, Sibley goes into the Middle-earth legendarium’s internal history, putting to heavy use what is probably Tolkien’s most famous letter, The Waldman Letter, in which Tolkien gave a thorough account of Middle-earth’s entire timeline to a prospective publisher.WATCH » https://youtu.be/dGCv15COfPIEXECUTIVE PRODUCERS:- Kaitlyn of Tea with Tolkien- John R- Jacob Lockham- John H- Eru27FOLLOW & SUPPORT THE TOLKIEN ROAD:PATREON » SUPERFANS!TWITTERFACEBOOKINSTAGRAMLINKS & MATHOMS:take 10% OFF Tolkien Road merch at True Myths Press » https://truemythspress.com/discount/TENOFF (enter code TENOFF at checkout)listen to TOLKIEN'S WORKS for FREE » https://www.audibletrial.com/everonbuy Tolkien's Requiem » https://tolkiensrequiem.com/ buy Tolkien's Overture » https://tolkiensove...

| Leaf By Niggle, 2023! Dr. Chris Hackett (https://HackettWrites.com) joins us for what has become an annual tradition on The Tolkien Road. While we’ve covered Leaf By Niggle several times in the past, and frequently refer to it, it’s an incredible gem, hidden behind the mountainous wonder that is the Middle-earth legendarium. For me, it’s a story that never ceases to fill me with wonder and joy, and if I’m being honest, it always manages to get me a little choked up. I suppose this effect has something to do with what Tolkien called “Christian joy”, that “which produces tears because it is qualitatively so like sorrow, because it comes from those places where Joy and Sorrow are at one, reconciled, as selfishness and altruism are lost in Love.” I wish people knew about this story like they knew about The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. I believe it is truly a life-changing story, bearing the aura of supernatural inspiration, like so much of Middle-earth. And it’s a joy to discuss th...

| What was the purpose of Númenor? In this episode, we explore that question through the lens of the song of Númenor.Many of you know that I have argued that Númenor’s purpose went beyond being a mere reward for the descendants of the Edain, and seemed to be filled with symbolism and rituals intended to point them to a greater destiny both in this world and beyond it. "Lovely is Númenor. But my heart resteth not here for ever; for here is ending, and there will be an end and the Fading, when all is counted, and all numbered at last, but yet it will not be enough, not enough. What will the Father, O Father, give me in that day beyond the end when my Sun faileth?"- JRR Tolkien, The Lost Road and Other WritingsWATCH THE VIDEO » https://youtu.be/w5utCO2kIu4 EXECUTIVE PRODUCERS:- Kaitlyn of Tea with Tolkien- John R- Jacob Lockham- John H- Scotchy Bobo- Eru27FOLLOW & SUPPORT US:- https://patreon.com/tolkienroad (get TWO MONTHS FREE for a limited time)- https://twitter.com/tolkienroad- https...

| In a 1963 letter, we find this remarkable line from Tolkien: “Frodo indeed ‘failed’.”What did he mean by that? Is there a deeper message that Tolkien himself took away from writing the scene of Frodo’s failure? What bits of wisdom can we glean from Tolkien’s commentary on Frodo’s failure at Mt Doom?We’ll dive into these questions and seek to understand what deeper truths about mercy, justice, and suffering Tolkien took away from the stark reality of Frodo’s failure.

I could not get it off yesterday. . . . . An abridgement by selection with some good picture-work would be pleasant, & perhaps worth a good deal in publicity; but the present script is rather a compression with resultant over-crowding and confusion, blurring of climaxes, and general degradation: a pull-back towards more conventional ‘fairy-stories’. People gallop about on Eagles at the least provocation; Lórien becomes a fairy-castle with ‘delicate minarets’, and all that sort of thing."LINKS & MATHOMS:- listen to The Silmarillion for FREE...

It is also quite tragic, as we shall see. After giving a bit of background on Túrin’s ancestry, it picks up where the last chapter left off, with Túrin’s father Húrin imprisoned in Angband. The chapter then focuses in on Túrin’s life.Like “Of Beren and Lúthien”, this chapter summarizes one of the Great Tales of the First Age. In fact, many of you may already realize that The Children of Húrin is a novel length telling of this story! We look forward to a chapter-by-chapter discussion of...

It’s fine to be Christian, obviously Tolkien was a Christian, but Christianity doesn’t exist in Arda. The mythology was not meant to be a metaphor for Christianity/the Bible - Tolkien had said that he dislikes such devices in story telling."In this video, I respond to that misguided accusation, and reveal what Tolkien actually thought and wrote about this topic.MORE VIDEOS ON THIS TOPIC:- Tolkien on Christ's Resurrection and the Way Things Really Do Work » Letter 89» https://youtu.be/7Sg4ZHX1zeY- The God and Gods of Middle-earth » https://youtu.be/bzFPLXBwVbI- Tolkien vs The Shadow » https://youtu.be/uNqNcxc12_A- Númenor's Purpose » https://youtu.be/eF309GhYZCo- Lord of the Rings & Religion Mailbag » https://youtu.be/ENYWhQ62TJwSupport / Follow My Work:- tolkienroad.com- patreon.com/tolkienroad- twitter.com/tolkienroadBe...

| "I am a Christian, and indeed a Roman Catholic, so that I do not expect ‘history’ to be anything but a ‘long defeat’ – though it contains (and in a legend may contain more clearly and movingly) some samples or glimpses of final victory." - JRR Tolkien, Letter 195 (https://amzn.to/3sVZJCE)WATCH THE VIDEO OF THIS » https://youtu.be/BXJDi03qbPEIn a previous video, which I've linked to in the notes below, I discussed what I hoped would be a path forward for the legendarium, guided by a Tolkien Estate which was unfailingly loyal JRR Tolkien's established work and vision. Well, that was a few months ago, and I've been feeling far less optimistic as of late. In fact, I've realized that the Tolkienian idea of the long defeat may apply in all of this.VIDEOS REFERENCED:- RINGS OF POWER » Protecting The Middle-earth Legendarium » https://youtu.be/xwYO_g48XVA- RINGS OF POWER Controversies » Why Compressing The Second Age Timeline Is Wrong » LOTR on Prime » https://youtu.be/RfJraeLEjzASupport / ...

| Is Lord of the Rings Christian, Pagan or, in some way, both?

| With The Rings of Power & The War of the Rohirrim coming soon, I’m starting to wonder: what’s going to be considered “canonical” going forward?In simple terms, will the lore that the show creates be considered “authoritative” going forward?This a PRESSING question, and things are going to get out of hand. In this video, I urge The Tolkien Estate to ACT to create its own office of lore to prevent abuses of the Middle-earth legendarium, and even to allow for "official" storytelling of a literary nature in the future.RINGS OF POWER Controversies » Why Compressing The Second Age Timeline Is Wrong » LOTR on Prime » https://youtu.be/RfJraeLEjzASupport / Follow My Work:- tolkienroad.com- twitter.com/tolkienroadBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-tolkien-road--5222755/support.

| Amazon plans to "compress" the 3,500 year timeline of the Second Age into a "single point in time". There are so many problems with this, and in this video I'm beginning to explore all of those problems.Let's talk about this in the comments!From https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2022/02/amazon-the-rings-of-power-series-first-look:'In the novels, the aforementioned things take place over thousands of years, but Payne and McKay have compressed events into a single point in time. It is their biggest deviation from the text, and they know it’s a big swing. “We talked with the Tolkien estate,” says Payne. “If you are true to the exact letter of the law, you are going to be telling a story in which your human characters are dying off every season because you’re jumping 200 years in time, and then you’re not meeting really big, important canon characters until season four. Look, there might be some fans who want us to do a documentary of Middle-earth, but we’re going to tell one story t...

| Who is Tom Bombadil? This is a topic we've covered several times on the Tolkien Road, but it's an undying enigma for Lord of the Rings fans, and we're always hungry for new insights into the mysterious nature of The Old Forest's Master. In episode 275, John discusses this topic with writer C.R. Wiley, whose new book IN THE HOUSE OF TOM BOMBADIL is receiving rave reviews for its treatment of the subject. Join us!WATCH THIS EPISODE » https://youtu.be/wb80qngLtFgEXECUTIVE PRODUCERS: John R, Kaitlyn of Tea with TolkienQUOTE OF THE WEEK: “Tom Bombadil is not an important person – to the narrative. I suppose he has some importance as a ‘comment’. I mean, I do not really write like that: he is just an invention (. . .), and he represents something that I feel important, though I would not be prepared to analyze the feeling precisely. I would not, however, have left him in, if he did not have some kind of function.” - Tolkien, 1954 (Letter 144)CONTENTS (timestamps coming soon, comment below...

| 23.08.2021 09:00
| In early July, I published an 8 minute video on our YouTube channel titled The Silmarillion: 3 Big Problems (and How to Fix Them). For many Tolkien fans, even asserting that there are problems with a work like The Silmarillion might be considered borderline blasphemy. I might have even said the same thing several years ago! However, after our survey of Unfinished Tales and The History of Middle-earth, I’m convinced that Christopher Tolkien himself came to view The Silmarillion as a flawed work. In episode 253, Greta and I discuss these problems in depth. We also catch up on correspondence, with topics ranging from the Valar to the flame of Udun to feedback on our recent discussion with Carl Hostetter.

| From the very beginning of its history, it is clear that Middle-earth is brimming with great spiritual powers.

Does his construction of Middle-earth betray his Catholic faith? Join us, as we explore the relationship of Middle-earth and paganism.

| Hey there fellow travelers! John here to let you know that it's time to get on the road again! Beginning in September, we will begin our journey through The Hobbit. This 8 episode podcast series will include in-depth, chapter-by-chapter discussions of the first 6 chapters of Tolkien's 1937 fantasy classic, and conclude with a discussion of Peter Jackson's film The Hobbit - An Unexpected Journey. We'll also take a special look at the character Gollum, and consider his overall significance to the stories of Middle-earth. However, we need your help to make this season as great as it can posssibly be! While we've produced over 140 hours of discussion about Tolkien's works over the last several years, when you add in all of the time preparing and producing the episodes, it actually adds up to quite a bit more. We want to make this series as great as possible, and every dollar you send our way is more wind in our sails! And if we can double our target, we'll produce 2 extra episodes along...

Chapter 5 stands out as the last “Shire” chapter, the deep breath before the hobbits plunge into epic danger and adventure. As such, it establishes the good things that the hobbits must leave behind in order to carry the Ring to safety. Chapter 5 ends with an account of Frodo’s numinous tower dream, which, although quite enigmatic, seems to hold a great deal of significance for Tolkien based upon its similarities to a pre-Hobbit work of his. Though not a lot of advancing action happens in Chapter 5, there’s still plenty to talk about, as is always the case with Tolkien.Come get lost in Middle...

It could be argued that it’s the most uneventful chapter in the whole book, with no major development in plot and not much new information revealed. Nevertheless, Tolkien chose to include it, and so on this episode we consider why he did.  We also examine the development of various characters, including Sam and Farmer Maggot.

| On this episode of The Tolkien Road, we examine and discuss Tolkien’s influential essay On Fairy-Stories. While both Greta and I are hungry to start our read-through of The Lord of the Rings, I felt it was important to consider the ideas Tolkien lays out in On Fairy-Stories because of the role they play in The Lord of the Rings. After all, this is the place where he lays out the distinctively Tolkienian concepts of Recovery, Escape, Consolation, Subcreation, and Eucatastrophe. Similarly, he discusses his ideas of how story-telling and the story of Jesus Christ are related. It’s quite beautiful and insightful.
