All Tolkien fans age 12 and older are welcome to join this course! It is important that learners read from applicable chapters before each class....
This class examines "The Return of the King" and its various themes, plot, characters, world-building techniques, and Middle Earth history and mythology. By the end of the course, students will have read "The Return of the King" and examined it in depth.
My education includes a BA in History, and an MA in International Relations. I have led and been part of numerous book clubs and have a life-long passion for Tolkien's legendarium. I have an entire bookcase dedicated to Tolkien books and memorabilia, (*including a film poster signed by Sir Ian McKellen, humble flex*). I re-read "Lord of the Rings" at least once per year, and I can recite all three of Peter Jackson's films by heart. I am excited to share my love of Tolkien with others.
