Hello class, today I`m going to talk about my favorite writer: JJR Tolkien (John Ronald Reuel Tolkien) He was born in Bloemfontein, South Africa, on January 3th of 1892 and die in Bournemouth in the United Kingdom, in September of 1973. He was a British writer; he was a poet, philologist and university teacher. He was famous for the publication ok two books: The Hobbits and The Lord of the Rings. But he worked all his life in one book: The Silmarillion, this book is his masterpiece.
In his profession of university teacher, he worked in Oxford University between 1925 and 1945, to dictate the chair: Rawlinson and Bosworth. And between 1945 and 1956 he was professor of Language and English Literature in Merton.
He was the creator of a fantastic and mythical world: Arda, but his most famous book talks about the Middle Earth. In this wonderful world, live many mythological and estrange creatures such as elf, hobbits, dwarfs, dragons, wizards and men.
In his books combine fantasy history with poems and made-up language, so he created a wonderful world of fantasy and his books inspired great movies.

Hi!
ReplyDeleteTolkien is an excellent writer. Really all the saga of Lord of the Rings is a masterpiece, I have not read the books but I am told they are much better than the movies so they should be fantastic.
And is incredible that you were given time to invent a language.
I hope the movie premiere of his book the hobbit soon.
See you
