BEOWULF THROUGH TOLKIEN AND VICE VERSA "It is astonishing that after 200 years of scholarship (starting in 1815) we still have no agreed reading context for the poem Beowulf. To put it another way, we still do not know when it was written, or where, who by, what for, or how it came to survive in the one single manuscript. We can only make informed guesses, sometimes very informed guesses. By contrast, we know a great deal about Prof Tolkien, including what he thought about Beowulf. This course will therefore seek, as regards Beowulf, to move from text to context, mixing speculation with skepticism, and with the aim of offering answers to some of the questions above; and concurrently, with regard to The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, and Tolkien’s work in general, to move from context to text, showing how Beowulf, and Anglo-Saxon culture general, acted as an inspiration for Tolkien." Anglo-Saxon and Tolkien scholar Tom Shippey explores "Beowulf" through the lens of J.R.R. Tolkien's newly released translation of the poem, along with Tolkien's influential 1937 essay "The Monster and the Critics." This is the first lecture of the 12-week course that began January 13, 2015. Registration for the course is open through Friday January 23rd: http://www.mythgard.org/academics/spring-2015-courses/beowulf-through-tolkien-and-vice-versa/ This course is a rare opportunity to hear one of the greatest Beowulf and Tolkien scholars discuss a significant piece of English literary history. Professor Shippey is one of the most entertaining and informative lecturers in the world.

Wall Street Journal 2013-05-13Thomas Alan Shippey (born 9 September 1943) is a scholar of medieval literature, including that of Anglo-Saxon England, and of modern fantasy and science fiction, in particular the works of J. R. R. Tolkien, about whom he has written several scholarly studies. He is widely considered one of the leading academic scholars on Tolkien. Shippey retired from the Walter J. Ong Chair of Humanities at Saint Louis University's College of Arts and Sciences in 2008.
His work and life cross paths in many ways with that of Tolkien; like Tolkien, he attended King Edward's School in Birmingham and taught Old English at Oxford University. He occupied Tolkien's former chair at the University of Leeds.
Under the pseudonym of "Tom Allen" he has written two stories that were published in anthologies edited by Peter Weston. The first published was the fantasy story "King, Dragon" in Andromeda 2 in 1977; the second was the science fiction novelette "Not Absolute" in Andromeda 3 in 1978.
Under the pseudonym of John Holm, he is also the co-author (with Harry Harrison) of The Hammer and the Cross trilogy of alternate history/fantasy novels.
