Chapter 19 - Of Beren and Luthien - J.R.R. Tolkien

[@therationalblackman957]

I’m a 43 year old Black man, I never heard of LOTR until the movies. The Silmarillion is one the most captivating stories I’ve ever read. Thank you for this audio version

Tolkien was a genius. Created a complete world, with a complete history. Unreal, just how far he took it.

[@rtSfe67]

Best chapter in my opinion of this book. So much of consequence happens because of this story

[@PamkoElessar]

True, true 🙃😃

[@jessedavies]

I read it originally about 8 years ago and finally re-read it recently. Such a fantastic story

[@4rcgoodwin]

Just found the series. I tried to finish without the images and got lost so fast. The more maps and genealogies and pictures the better!

[@PamkoElessar]

yes :)

[@unexpectedspider]

this chapter is fantastic. the art and diagrams you add are incredibly helpful

[@PamkoElessar]

Glad to hear that!

[@BogWraith1]

Thank you so very much for the work you put into these. The notes you include for the Timeline are extensive and add so much to an already Herculean effort you put forth with the imagery that accompany your videos! Outstanding! Well done, my friend.

[@PamkoElessar]

Bring to me in your hands a Silmaril from Morgoth's crown...

I guess it’s a good thing they didn’t burn Beren after he died.

[@ledzeppelinzoso]

My second favourote chapter, my favourite is when fingolfin gets pissed and goes to duel morgoth, my third is when Hurin kills like 150 dudes in a last stand

[@PamkoElessar]

Nice work dude

Thank you 😊

Huan is the hero of this chapter

[@FuerstMykisch]

What a chapter. Finrod and Luthien are great. Not elitist like some other elfs

[@PamkoElessar]

🙂🙂

[@DG-zg3op]

Finrod is « tempered » by Luthien as far as I remember. In this audio chapter he asks for the silmarilion calmly. In the book he has a pretentious attitude towards Beren and he values his daughters hand only at the price of a silmarilion. So personally I think it could be debated.. :)

[@DG-zg3op]

Oups. Thingol and Melian … Need to read again 🙂

[@Bogan81]

Ty for adding the map and pictures. I always wonder where the characters are when they travel.

[@PamkoElessar]

You’re welcome 🙂

[@AfterDarwinEntertainment]

I love this please do more😁😁

[@PamkoElessar]

I will 😉

[@MatthiasDesmond]

This is the happiest story of the Silmilrilon

[@PamkoElessar]

😁

[@ahank1706]

The most metal chapter in the book. You could create an albums worth of songs from this one story.

[@squall2590]

where is the painting of beren and the two in the valley at 5:43 from?

[@PamkoElessar]

I really don't know what picture are you talking about :(

Sorry, still don’t get it 🤷‍♀️

[@tedcabana]

This is ONE of my favorite stories from the Silmarillion. If that epic tale was ever to made into film, this would be, at least, the third, and greatest story of that saga, after The Children of Huron. And, the songs of the Ainur. To make a film into a trilogy of movies, would fall so unjust to Tolkien's legacy. I hate to think the film-makers of the future would give so less than a series of at least six films. What Director/Producer, would want to limit their career to so few films, when the Master of fantasy has given us so much to work with? I hope to see this "Magna Opus" of 20th century literature before I die. But not to see it produced in haste, and fall short of our expectations. But to see it made into a film as Tolkien had spent so many years writing it. Though the "Children of Huron" could be made into wo films. We fans will buy tickets to all those films. Do it, and do it well! The appropriate film makers are sitting on a gold mine, far greater than they can ever imagine. If you don't know how to start this adventure, than just ask me. I will guide you all the way.

[@lucascesar029]

Let this story rest, and come to be adapted in a time where creators are more concerned with creating beautiful things, and not ideological messages. The story, if told faithful, would be considered old-fashioned in todays world; the main characters are virtuous and beautiful, and yet people today crave for "morally-grey" chracters, and are offended at the sight of beauty.

[@jamesbartholomeusz3771]

The frustrating thing.is there are these great tails which could tick so many by boxes for the ideologically aligned but they make a literal abomination like the rings of power.

[@PamkoElessar]

true

[@frederickburke9944]

i wish some great composer would write an opera for Beren and Luthien

Me too 🙂

hi ...daniel (new here) how often do chapters come out ?

[@PamkoElessar]

There’s no certain time. This is not my primary job and I am trying to finish chapters as fast as I can whenever I have time 😃

[@danielfingerhut4190]

@@PamkoElessar appreciate your answer …take your time btw quality over quantity ma man

Thank you 😊

I wish they made a real tv series or anime out of this fine book. No woke, no diversity bs just pure talent.
