Tom Shippey's J.R.R. Tolkien: Author of the century and a look back at Tolkien criticism since 1982

Abstract:: We discuss the progress of Tolkien criticism over the past nineteen years, since Shippey's first book on Tolkien, and attempt to situate Author in relation to the main approaches, themes and insights that have developed since then.4 We follow this survey with a brief discussion of what we believe to be the best recent Tolkien scholarship (while this discussion is admittedly subjective, it is based on a comprehensive survey of every book and article published on Tolkien and his works since Road ), and we conclude with a few suggestions for future directions for Tolkien criticism.
