Draggingtree Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 From Father to Son — J.R.R. Tolkien on Sex Tuesday • March 11, 2014The astounding popularity of J.R.R. Tolkien and his writings–magnified many times over by the success of the “Lord of the Rings” films–has ensured that Tolkien’s fantasy world of moral meaning stands as one of the great literary achievements of our times. In some sense, Tolkien was a man born out of time. A philologist at heart, Tolkien was most at home in the world of ancient ages, even as he witnessed the barbarism and horrors of the 20th century. Celebrated as a popular author, he was an eloquent witness to permanent truths. His popularity on university campuses, extending from his own day right up to the present, is a powerful indication of the fact that Tolkien’s writings reach the hearts of the young, and those looking for answers. Even as Tolkien is celebrated as an author and literary figure, some of his most important messages were communicated by means of letters, and some of the most important letters were written to his sons. http://www.albertmohler.com/2014/03/11/from-father-to-son-j-r-r-tolkien-on-sex/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
