He is also the author of the poetry collection, Beyond This Dark House. His most recent work is A Brightness Long Ago.

Tolkien to assist in the editorial construction of The Silmarillion, the first and best-known of the posthumously published Tolkien works.

The Tolkien Lecture on Fantasy Literature was established in 2013 at Pembroke College, Oxford, where J.R.R. Tolkien worked for twenty years as professor of Anglo-Saxon. Speakers in the series are given freedom to discuss any aspect of fantasy literature, broadly defined. Our aim is to honour J.R.R. Tolkien’s legacy by promoting, and contributing to, the study of fantasy.
