{"product_id":"9783905703276","title":"Sub-creating Middle-earth","description":"Authorship in the works of J. R. R. Tolkien is a subject of many facets. Within the mythology and history of Middle-earth, many story-tellers, bards, annalists and poets contribute to the weaving of an enormous tapestry of tales. Sub-creation, as Tolkien practiced it, involves an abundance of traditions, including different modes of authorship and literary creation - and some depart strikingly from the common modern notions. Instead of proposing a unified perception, the six articles in this collection therefore examine the web of authorial presence and authorship concepts in Tolkien's works from diverse angles, to trace a polyphonous dialogue between the writer of the texts and the many voices within that shape Middle-earth in concert.","brand":"Walking Tree Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47020858179824,"sku":"9783905703276","price":24.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9783905703276_p0.jpg?v=1763702817","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9783905703276","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
