I’m reading this right now (and taking breaks here and there). It’s… interesting. I’m not sure if Tolkien was even thinking about politics when he wrote his series of books, and yet, I get the feeling that he was probably influenced by his life and times, given the story that he ended up writing. Nothing happens in a vacuum. I think that goes for one’s imagination as well…

I’m gonna drunk read this later.
It’s actually not that long of an essay; the author accidentally posted it seven times in the same page, hence the long side-bar. Never mind the comments at the end (which aren’t worth reading, imho).
