The Theological Landscape of Middle Earth

by Francis of the Child Jesus Nekrosius

Overview

Fantasy may be a nice entertainment. But not only: fantasy can convey the deepest questions of human heart, including religious and theological ones, and responses expressed in the way which would not be possible in any other way, namely, through mythological archetypes and symbols. This book explores those contained in J.R.R. Tolkien's fantasy, especially in "The Lord of the Rings."
