| Popis | John Ronald Reuel Tolkien is a name that apparently needs no further introduction. He is the famous English writer, “father of fantasy”, the author of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. That would probably be the fastest answer of millions of people around the world and they would be, of course, right. If you asked more about him, some of these people would say that he was also a learned man, an important professor and a philologist. All of that is correct as well. But there is one more occupation that fits perfectly to this man. Even though he is very rarely seen in this light, I would also call him a poet. In fact, I would argue that his poetic nature is above all the other characteristics. In my talk, I will try to prove this in all three kinds of his fictitious works – his original works, adaptations and translations. |
