I’ll be honest: I’m more of a fan of the movies. All the same, I acknowledge that if it weren’t for Tolkien, I’d never have heard of the Lord of the Rings. In fact, Peter Jackson, the director of the movies, sought to make his movies as a love letter to Tolkien. And to say that everyone involved had worked hard to pay tribute to Lord of the Rings would be a gross understatement.

"Himself" doesn't alliterate with "Hador and Hurin", it actually alliterates with "assembled". The Old Norse verse, which I assume is what Tolkien was referencing with that poem, only ever alliterated on the stressed syllables, not the unstressed ones. The stressed syllables in both "himself" and "assembled" are the second ones, which both start with an S-sound. This actually makes the poem work better: Hador and Hurin are connected through alliteration, while Hurin and Turin are connected through rhyme, but the line with Beren breaks the pattern and starts a new alliterating couplet. This reinforces the feeling that "Beren himself" is somehow set apart from and stands above the three people mentioned before him. The poem from the lecture I'm referring to, for reference: elf-friends of old, Hador and Hurin, and Turin, and Beren himself were assembled

The prof’s conclusion is why I majored in English in early 60’s. I’ve had to justify my degree for years saying Lit used to be taught without a party line. I’m glad such professors as he continue to explain the way of the human heart.

This is terrific, I would make one suggestion, steadily expanding economic inequality makes being a parent, especially a single parent very hard. Parents also need healthy environments and this economy does not provide sustainable or even steady security, in fact, zero sum goals of paying millions less than it takes to live, so a few can be mega powerful, must change for true improvement to neurodevelopment

It is actually not improbable that people in a strong oral culture would "burst out" in well-formed poetry. If you know your meters and know traditional formulae, that is exactly what they can do.

The other thing that Tolkien did an extraordinary job of was "delivering" his love of nature right onto those pages. As I read the descriptions of the settings and so on, first of all I felt like I was "there," but even more I felt that it was BEAUTIFUL and wholesome and very much a place that it would be pleasant to live in - a place that I could "feel love for." That's good writing.

I think that the literary critics of the mid 20th century were pissed off because Tolkien burst the comfortable bubble of intellectual and cultural superiority they had built for themselves asserting a pseudo-scriptural canon of approved modern literature. Not only was he evoking earlier literary traditions which were in no sense inferior, but he was demonstrating a superior level of knowledge about writing in doing so. Their pride was offended, and so they never forgave him and the fantasy genre, and later all genre fiction and the comic book and graphic novel form and later still Manga and Anime, and continue to assert their worthlessness _ab ovo_ and overwhelmingly site unseen. Snobs gonna snob, especially in mid 20th century Oxford at the heart of the British Empire. But ultimately their pride is on ruins, as all the works of human vanity must eventually be. A new generation of art snobs is defacing and desecrating Tolkien and genre fiction right now, asserting a contemprary form of the "modern canon", in which "representation" and "diversity" and identity politics must take precedent over lore, faithfulness to original source material, plot, character, narrative logic and all other considerations, because ultimately fiction must not be fiction but only a documentary facsimile of present day suburban and establishment America and its twisted values, pretensions, anti-moralist moralism and anti-religious religious zeal.

What a wonderfully enriching lecture from one of the foremost scholars on Tolkien. My only complaint and point of disagreement is when Drout remarks that Tolkien is not literature but pop culture. I agree that he's a pop culture phenomenon but I think that hi work is nevertheless literature. In fact, Drout's entire presentation demonstrates ever more deeply that Tolkien is and should be studied as literature.

How do we know that individuals shared their privacy information,for reasons other than cost/benefit reasons ? Or is he equating pecuniary benefits with all benefits? Is that the appropriate way of analysing individuals behavior ?
