This volume is perhaps the most in-depth exploration ever
undertaken of Tolkien's world. Accessible but authoritative, and
fully illustrated, it is now being reissued with a stunning new
cover treatment and updated commentary on new books, films, games,
and shows. This book, originally published in 2013 and richly
illustrated with photographs and artwork, was the first to connect
all the threads of influence on Tolkien that infused his creation
of Middle-earth--from the languages, poetry, and mythology of
medieval Europe and ancient Greece and Rome to the halls of Oxford
and the battlefields of World War I. Snyder examines the impact of
these works on our modern culture, from 1960s counterculture to
fantasy publishing, gaming, music, and beyond. The reissue has a
gorgeous, updated cover design with a custom illustration on
foil-stamped faux cloth and additional pages of material covering
new developments.
