Tolkien and Philosophy

"Tolkien and Philosophy" is a theme that has not yet been studied
with the "philological" accuracy and the textual knowledge that are
required to avoid squeezing the Professor's works inside conceptual
frameworks that, rather than exposing their intrinsic value, risk
losing both their profound meaning and their inherent beauty.
What is the relationship between Tolkien's work and Philosophy?
The question, if taken seriously, is by no means trivial. For
these reasons we wish this book to become, in both method and
content, an essential point of reference for anyone interested in
better understanding the significant elements that sometimes link,
sometimes divide, the "philologist" Tolkien from proper speculative
philosophy.
