J.R.R. Tolkien wrote many stories outside of Middle-earth. In today's episode, Jon, Ron, and Jasmine discuss some of these stories. Which are their favorites? What motivated Tolkien to write them? What do we learn about him from these stories?

Tolkien's short children's works, Roverandom and Mr. Bliss.

Jared, Oriana and Ned start the new year with Ned's choice of topic: the short children's works Roverandom and Mr. Bliss. Tolkien has been described as a children's author both with praise and disparagement over time, but a more accurate way to put it is that while he was busy working on his cycle of early Middle-earth stories with its high drama and tragedy in the 1920s and 1930s, he was also a loving father to four young children who often made up many stories and tales for them. The Hobbit itself has strong roots in this activity but whether it's the Father Christmas letters, the original Tom Bombadil stories, the early versions of Farmer Giles of Ham or more besides, it's a large creative part of his work in those decades. After The Hobbit was accepted for publication, Tolkien provided the manuscripts for, among other submissions, the stories Roverandom and Mr. Bliss for consideration, though the success of The Hobbit and the request for a sequel led him down other paths, with the two stories receiving separate posthumous publication instead. Is there ultimately anything more to Mr. Bliss than a series of random happenings that the titular character barely seems to be at the center of a lot of the time? How does Roverandom work in notable contrast to Mr. Bliss, with its deeper emotions as much as it has a sense of playful satire? How well does Tolkien's art for both stories achieve a distinct resonance and beauty? And who wouldn't want to get a newspaper called Ocean Notions, perhaps most applicable these days if you live in a pineapple under the sea?SHOW NOTES.Jared's doodle – a beautiful and striking moment from an equally striking story.Join the Megaphonic Patreon!

The conventional wisdom says that JRR Tolkien didn't much care for his buddy C.S. Lewis' Chronicles of Narnia.Is this true? If so, what was so off-putting about the stories from Tolkien's perspective?In episode 266, John is joined by Holly Ordway (author of Tolkien's Modern Reading) and David Bates (of Pints With Jack, the C.S. Lewis podcast) to explore these questions and more.

TESTO DELL'ARTICOLO ➜http://www.filmgarantiti.it/it/articoli.php?id=151GLI HOBBIT: TESTIMONI DI VIRTU' UMANE E CRISTIANE di Antonio Gaspari''Sei una bravissima persona, signor Baggins, e io ti sono molto affezionato, ma in fondo sei solo una creatura in un mondo molto vasto!'' GandalfLO HOBBIT: UN "PREQUEL" DE IL SIGNORE DEGLI ANELLI, UNA FIABA PER BAMBINI, O UN'OPERA MINORE DEL GRANDE TOLKIEN?Paolo Gulisano (autore di "La Mappa dello Hobbit" ed. Ancora):Questa storia è molto più che un prequel del Signore degli Anelli, come molti dei lettori - o spettatori - più recenti potrebbe credere. Non è una storia - come molto spesso accade nel caso dei prequel, appunto - per spiegare a posteriori gli antecedenti, i segreti, i misteri di un'opera.. Il racconto delle avventure di Bilbo Baggins e di altri personaggi ormai familiari ai lettori della saga dell'Anello, come Gandalf, Gollum, Elrond, nani ed elfi, uscì dalla fantasia di Tolkien molto tempo prima che le vicende della Guerra dell'Anello venissero immaginate. In realtà, il Signore degli Anelli fu concepito come il seguito de Lo Hobbit, e per molto tempo, nella corrispondenza che intercorreva tra Tolkien e l'editore, il libro in gestazione veniva chiamato "il nuovo Hobbit"."In un buco della terra viveva un Hobbit". Questa strana frase venne improvvisamente alla mente del giovane professore che in un caldo pomeriggio estivo, nella sua casa di Oxford, correggeva i compiti di ammissione all'università. Uno degli esaminandi aveva lasciato il suo elaborato di letteratura inglese in bianco, e il professor Tolkien, per una misteriosa ispirazione, scrisse su quel foglio bianco quella frase. Era nato un nome, Hobbit, e in breve tempo il nome sarebbe diventato un personaggio, la più originale creatura del vasto mondo fantastico del più geniale scrittore di Letteratura dell'Immaginario. Senza quel buffo personaggio, lo Hobbit, probabilmente tutto l'universo fantastico che Tolkien andava elaborando da anni non avrebbe mai conosciuto la pubblicazione.LEI SCRIVE NEL SUO SAGGIO CHE IL LIBRO NACQUE NON SOLO DALL'ERUDITA CONOSCENZA DEI MITI E DELLE LEGGENDE ANTICHE DEL SUO AUTORE, MA ANCHE DALLA SUA ESPERIENZA DI PADRE...Esatto. Tolkien raccontava ai propri quattro figli storie di buffi personaggi: Mister Bliss, il cagnolino Roverandom, ed infine favole dove coraggiosi piccoli protagonisti, come gli Hobbit, si battevano contro il male. La storia era nata certamente, nelle intenzioni dello scrittore, come una fiaba per bambini, narrata con un tono colloquiale in cui il narratore si rivolge ai piccoli lettore invitandoli ad avventurarsi loro stessi nella storia. Nel corso dei diversi anni di preparazione del libro, tuttavia, il racconto si arricchì progressivamente dei contenuti del Legendarium tolkieniano.Era una storia dal sapore antico, in cui si avvertiva l'eco delle antiche leggende, e in più arricchita di un piacevolissimo tipo di quella gioia che qualche anno prima Gilbert Chesterton aveva lamentato essere la grande assente dalla narrativa moderna: "Nella sua sostanza, la letteratura contemporanea è quasi totalmente priva di elementi gioiosi. E penso che sia giusto dire, parlando genericamente, che non è abbastanza infantile per essere gioiosa". Tolkien possedeva questo spirito infantile, inteso non come puerilità, ma come capacità di guardare alla realtà con occhi di bambino, pieni di domanda e di stuporeANCHE LO HOBBIT, COME IL SIGNORE DEGLI ANELLI, È CARICO DI SIMBOLOGIE CRISTIANE?Ne Lo Hobbit appare per la prima volta il grande tema della rinuncia, del sacrificio, che per Tolkien era una delle più grandi virtù, una delle forme più alte di eroismo, tema che sarà sviluppato profondamente nel Signore degli Anelli. La rinuncia al possesso di qualcosa, non per masochismo, non per un "di meno", ma per guadagnare "un di più" di umanità e di virtù. Bilbo Baggins della Contea è la testimonianza di come si possa divenire eroi, pur non essendo grandi e grossi, pur non appartenendo ad una élite, affrontando le sfide che la vita pone di fronte, per quanto insormontabili esse possano apparire.L'avventura che aveva vissuto gli aveva inoltre insegnato che le grandi imprese non sono opera di un eroe solitario, ma di una compagnia. L'amicizia fu per Tolkien uno dei sentimenti più importanti della vita, e così anche i suoi personaggi la coltivano con passione. La compagnia reciproca è una delle cose più gratificanti. E' condivisione di interessi, di sentimenti, e anche di avvenimenti. E' correzione fraterna, e magari richiamo all'essenziale, come quando, alla fine della storia, ricordando le avventure trascorse insieme, Gandalf rammenta a Bilbo i suoi limiti, dopo aver valorizzato tutti i suoi meriti: "Sei una bravissima persona, signor Baggins, e io ti sono molto affezionato, ma in fondo sei solo una creatura in un mondo molto vasto!" "Grazie al cielo!" disse Bilbo ridendo.
