The author of THE HOBBIT and THE LORD OF THE RINGS, J. R. R. Tolkien was also an Oxford scholar deeply versed in medieval literature. Articles in TOLKIEN STUDIES reflect that dual capacity, with writers studying Tolkien s narratives and academic work, along with recent movie adaptations and international translations. Selected articles in Volume 4 include the following: "Tolkienian Linguistics: The First Fifty Years," by Carl F. Hostetter; "Tolkien's Celtic Type of Legends: Merging Traditions," by Dimitra Fimi; "Greek and Latin Amatory Motifs in Éowyn s Portrayal," by Miryam Librán-Moreno; "The Curious Incident of the Dream at the Barrow: Memory and Reincarnation in Middle-earth," by Verlyn Flieger; "J.R.R. Tolkien s Medieval Scholarship and its Significance," by Michael D. C. Drout; and "The Name 'Nodens'," by J. R. R. Tolkien
