Showcase lecture for
Tolkien’s Invented Languages in The Lord of the Rings
in the SPACE Showcase: May 3, 2025.
In this puzzle-solving course we will work to piece together Tolkien’s invented languages based primarily on how they are used in The Lord of the Rings. Although much richer linguistic information became publicly available later, this course will look primarily at those aspects of the languages revealed through the main text and appendices of The Lord of the Rings.
Required Texts
J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings
