Hour 1: Philosopher of War

In the Market with Janet Parshall

TV companies pay hundreds of millions to the Tolkien Trust to make adaptations of his work. In the UK, he routinely tops the list of the nation's favorite authors. An estimated 2 million war gamers use The Lord of the Rings figurines in their RPG. It is incontestable that Tolkien is one of the most influential writers of the last century. Graham McAleer will fill a gap in the scholarship around Tolkien discussing the writer’s thoughts on liberty, dignity, and aesthetics.
