5.0 out of 5 stars Intelligent insights, 10 Mar 2008
This review is from: Mr. Baggins: 1 (History of the Hobbit) (Hardcover)
Rateliff has done a thorough job in researching the sources of the original mauscripts of The Hobbit. His revelations provide much pause for thought when looking at the alleged originality of Tolkien's earliest published novel. There are discussions relating to the sources of each name that Tolkien uses, each location, each people, each myth. Rateliff's analysis of the relationship between Tolkien's myths and those of Greece, Rome, Celtic and Norse origin is enlightening and very much adds to the enjoyment of the original work.

An adult response to a childhood story. Much welcomed. Now I am off to read the second half of Rateliff's academic work: Return To Bag End
