Tolkien And Coleridge, Clyde S. Kilby

Tolkien Journal

Finds similarities in both authors’ love of philology, ability to tell a spell-binding story, and the long torment of the Mariner and Frodo, as well as an essentially Catholic orientation and a regard for the numinous nature of life. (The author does not posit any influence on Tolkien by Coleridge but simply notes similarities.)

Hobbits: Common Lens For Heroic Experience, David M. Miller

Tolkien Journal

Theorizes that works of fantasy need some sort of bridge linking them to the primary world in order to have literary depth. After discussing bridging devices in several other fantasies, notably Eddison’s The Worm Ouroboros, the author locates Tolkien’s bridging device in the initial utter ordinariness and realistic character growth of the hobbits, with whom the reader is led to identify from the start and therefore throughout their later encounters with the high and heroic of Middle -earth.

The Genre Of The Lord Of The Rings, Alexis Levitin

Tolkien Journal

Attempts to define the genre of The Lord of the Rings, an “alien but very effective piece of work” that defies easy categorization. Settles on “a quest-story presented in an epic and fairy-tale medium.”
