Description

“Luckily for us, the Mythopoeic Press has agreed to republish Journey Back Again in order to bring it into wider circulation…. [It] will inspire seasoned scholars to look again on a familiar tale, and a new generation of scholars to continue to cultivate the rich field of Tolkien Studies.” — Megan N. Fontenot, Mythlore review

“These fresh and insightful interpretations of Tolkien’s work are clear evidence that you don’t have to be a don to be a scholar…. Although these essays began as student work a few years ago, they have evolved in this newly revised edition to be a fitting tribute both to their progenitor Diana Pavlac Glyer and to their inspiration, J. R. R. Tolkien.” — Verlyn Flieger, author of There Would Always Be a Fairy Tale: More Essays on Tolkien

“Taking this Journey Back Again will prove a continually enticing and deeply rewarding expedition.” — Brian Sibley, editor of The Fall of Númenor by J. R. R. Tolkien
