About this product
Product Information
A major contribution to the growing body of Tolkien scholarship With the release of Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings movie trilogy and forthcoming film version of The Hobbit, J. R. R. Tolkien's popularity has never been higher. In Green Suns and Faerie, author Verlyn Flieger, one of world's foremost Tolkien scholars, presents a selection of her best articles-some never before published-on a range of Tolkien topics. The essays are divided into three distinct sections. The first explores Tolkien's ideas of sub-creation-the making of a Secondary World and its relation to the real world, the second looks at Tolkien's reconfiguration of the medieval story tradition, and the third places his work firmly within the context of the twentieth century and modernist literature. With discussions ranging from Tolkien's concepts of the hero to the much-misunderstood nature of Bilbo's last riddle in The Hobbit, Flieger reveals Tolkien as a man of both medieval learning and modern sensibility-one who is deeply engaged with the past and future, the regrets and hopes, the triumphs and tragedies, and above all the profound difficulties and dilemmas of his troubled century. Taken in their entirety, these essays track a major scholar's deepening understanding of the work of the master of fantasy. Green Suns and Faerie is sure to become a cornerstone of Tolkien scholarship.

- b***7 (35)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseMy order was relatively rare edition, so on the point of getting the book, the decent price, the description, and communication with the seller all excellent. I did find the long dispatch time quite mystifying, but it did come and I was delighted when it did. based upon my experience I would recommend the seller , but do take note of their dispatch timings.
- f***p (162)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe book arrived well packed get & I pristine condition at a good price. I would have liked it by 1st class post & I contacted this Seller via EBAY 'CONTACT' but got NO RESPONSE via either my email account or on ebay and certainly not in my Spam folder...SO what can you say I was inconvenienced a bit but got a positive outcome? I think they're reliable for transactions but something is remiss with electronic communication via EBAY or perhaps not tech savvy or disinterested or unwell etc..
- e***g (3122)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseAs usual with this seller, the book was exactly as described and very well packed. However, delivery times can vary significantly. This was one of 4 books ordered at the same time. Two arrived in about a week, but this one took almost 3 weeks. A reliable seller who answers questions promptly, but could improve on dispatch times.
