Carter Lin
Tolkien: The Look Behind The Lord of the Rings
Paperback. Very Good. Carter's study was intended to serve as an introduction to Tolkien for those unfamiliar with his work. His introduction briefly reviews the publishing phenomenon of The Lord of the Rings and its burgeoning popularity in the wake of the first paperback editions in the 1960's after which he devotes three chapters to a short biography of the author through the late 1960's including an account of how The Lord of the Rings was written. Four chapters explaining Tolkien's invented Middle-earth and summarizing the stories of The Hobbit and the three volumes of The Lord of the Rings follow for the benefit of readers who may not have yet actually read the works. Carter next turns to the question of what the works are a point of some confusion at the time. The then current vogue for realistic fiction provided critics with few tools for evaluating an out-and-out fantasy on its own terms and attempts to deconstruct it as a satire or allegory were rife. Carter gently but firmly debunks these efforts supporting his argument by drawing on Tolkien's own published ruminations on the functions and purposes of fantasy. 1978 printing paperback Tight Copy light page age toning clear tape reinforced cover minor edgewear minor cover reading creases and rubs no names no stamps no labels.
