Onderdeel van de reeks(en)Parma Eldalamberon (Issue 20)
This is an edition of J. R. R. Tolkien's charts and notes from circa 1931 dealing with the earliest version of the script of the conceptual type he would later call "Fëanorian Tengwar" and eventually include in "The Lord of the Rings." It contains 40 documents in which Tolkien's examples of the scripts are reproduced in facsimile. The documents include different versions of his explanation of the use of the script for representing English, both phonetically and also according to English spelling. These have charts of the theoretical values of the sounds represented by the letters, and various English words and texts written in the scripts. There are also various specimen texts written by Tolkien exemplifying some conceptual changes in the assignment of phonetic values to particular letters and a great variety of different styles of writing, ranging from formal "book-hand" to rapidly written cursive. Most of these examples are in English, but there are also texts in Latin, Old English and Old High German. Transcriptions of the examples and editorial commentary on the dating and historical background are provided by the editor, Arden R. Smith. This is issue number 20 of the journal "Parma Eldalamberon." Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
