5 Excellent Essays about Tolkien’s Elves
1. Legolas of Mirkwood: Prince Among Equals by tinw: a fascinated and in-deept look at Legolas, who he is and what was his place among his people.
2. The Wild, Wild Wood-elf West by Michael Martinez: a history of the Wood-elves.
3. The Accidental King: Five Reasons Why Finarfin Deserves More Appreciation by Dawn Felagund: just what it says on the tin, but an excellent analysis of an often overlooked character.
4. The Last Prince: Musings on Finarfin by avanti_90: another outstanding analysis of Finarfin’s character, because I love him.
5. It’s All in the Family: The Finwëans by Michael Martinez: a history of the House of Finwë.
5 Excellent Essays about Tolkien’s Languages
1. Name Calling: Group Identity and the Other among First Age Elves by Angelica: how the names used by the early Elves to identify themselves and others revel relationships between the different cultures.
2. The Colors of Elvish: A Linguistic Exploration by Fiondil: explores the sociolinguistic implications of the color terms that Tolkien translated into Quenya and Sindarin.
3. Twenty-Two Words You Never Thought Tolkien Would Provide by Darth Fingon: just what it says in the title, good for a laugh if nothing else.
4. What is the Literal Translation of Úlairi? by Michael Martinez: an intriguing discussion about this debated word.
5. How Many Languages Did J.R.R. Tolkien Invent for Middle-earth? by Michael Martinez: a good attempt to answer a question that probably doesn’t have an answer.
