About this product
Product Information
Following the release in 2001 of the first film of Peter Jackson's adapted trilogy of J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, a wave of 'Ring Fever' swamped the world, with reprints of the novel, guidebooks, Internet sites, memorabilia and toys, video and computer games, location tours and extended DVDs. Taking a Cultural Studies perspective, this collection of essays examines the cultural issues generated by Tolkien's novel and Jackson's films. In particular, by applying a variety of cultural, media and literary theories, the essays in this collection attempt to answer the question: How did we become Middle-earth? Topics covered range from fan culture in an age of IT, globalization, transnational capitalism and consumerism to the local socio-political implications of the Rings tale, and the formation of a Middle-earth in our real (or, as argued by the French philosopher Jean Beaudrillard, our no longer real but hyperreal) world.

Item arrived fast, well-packaged and in excellent condition, and was exactly as described. More than that, communication was good, and when I had a problem paying immediately due to a computer/server issue, I explained to the seller that there would be a delay and they were courteous in the extreme and very patient. I'm extremely happy with this seller.

I paid less than £20 for a book I haven’t been able to find online for less than £50, and the shipping was FREE from the US to the UK. I took a gamble buying this book considering the price, the fact it was listed as “used” and the photos advertised. I was expecting to receive a book that showed at least minor signs of wear and tear, if not major signs, but the book arrived today less than 2 weeks of me ordering in perfect condition and still sealed?! WOW. Amazing seller, thank you so much!!!
