Atheist Readers of J.R.R. Tolkien's Legendarium
I can’t wait to hear you talk on this!
Will have to see if it's accepted, but if not I'll probably be giving it somewhere else and/or posting on Substack!
Just a quick follow-up: my proposal was not accepted (they had something like 60 submissions)! I'll be giving a version of this paper at the 2024 PCA (f2f) in March, in Chicago. The presentations at the online seminar were fantastic: you can read the abstracts, and then see the recordings on the Society YouTube when they're uploaded: https://www.tolkiensociety.org/events/tolkien-society-online-seminar-2023-tolkien-and-religion-in-the-twenty-first-century/
