For anyone at or near BGSU who is interested in Tolkien, I plan on attending the following event which came up in today’s Campus Update.
The Department of Popular Culture is proud to announce our December lecturer, Dr. Esther Clinton, Visiting Assistant Professor of Popular Culture. Dr. Clinton’s presentation will explore J.R.R. Tolkien’s use of proverbs in his Lord of the Rings trilogy. Please join us for this colloquium at 11 a.m. on Dec. 6 in 201 Bowen-Thompson Student Union.
The presentation will last about an hour, with an informal “brown bag” lunch to follow. Dessert and beverages will be provided.
I’ll try and post a follow-up afterwards.
