How James Frazer (inadvertently) Saved Easter For Neo-Pagans

Rebirth is something very much on my mind at this time of year, as I notice the the buds appearing on the trees, the birds singing again in the morning, and the wild geese returning north. For this Pagan, Easter is celebration of the parousia, the manifestation of Indestructible Life which...

The Archetype of the Dying and Rising God in World Mythology

Although many of the great Christian apologists of the twentieth century—Lee Strobel, Josh McDowell, Chuck Colson—converted directly from atheism to Christianity, C. S. Lewis’s journey to faith was a two-step process. When, at the age of thirty, he fell to his knees and confessed that God is...

Frazer's goddamned Golden Bough - Swan Tower

(This post brought to you by temporary internet access at ICFA, and a desire to use this rant before my passion for it fades.) I’m sure that Geoff Ryman is a very nice man, and I like what I’ve read of his fiction. But his luncheon speech the other day included a throwaway line that […]

Tolkien the reluctant Celt

I'm sure you all know that old Tolkien was a professed Anglo-Saxon, in lineage and in temperament. To a fan who wrote him praising The Lord of the Rings for being "Celtic," he replied: "Needless to say they are not Celtic! Neither are the tales. I do know Celtic things (many in their original...

How ancient history influenced Tolkien: did a forgotten legend inspire Rings of Power's Celebrimbor?

The Lord of the Rings author, JRR Tolkien, drew on a rich blend of historical and mythological influences to create Middle-earth and the beings in it. So how did the tale of a silver-handed Irish hero inspire The Rings of Power’s Celebrimbor, and what did a hill in Gloucestershire have to do...

“There’s no invention in the void.” Read a letter from J.R.R. Tolkien on the origins of Middle-earth.

A handwritten letter from J.R.R. Tolkien is currently up for auction, with bidding beginning at $5,000, if you’ve got that kind of cash lying around. The letter, which is dated April 12, 1956…

Dear Mr. Earle, Thank you for your kind and appreciative letter. I hope to retain your approbation to the end of the work. It’s not consciously based on anything but a complete ‘invention,’ like the supposed Elvish languages. But there is no ‘invention’ in the void, and naturally in digested form I am indebted to the myths and legends of literature. But most specially to those of England and Wales (for Gaelic of Ireland and Scotland I have no great liking). Of ancient A. S. English or Welsh ‘myths’ alas nothing remains, and of ancient legends very little. My name’s German in origin, though in this anglicized form it has been in England some 200 years (and has emigrated to America); but it remains very unusual. It’s a form of the German word toll-kühn and should properly be spelt Tol(l)kichin. The correct pronunciation is therefore Tolkeen, with the accent on the ‘o’ (as in doll). Yours sincerely, J. R. R. Tolkien.
