A fresh and provocative literary and theological analysis of Tolkien's oeuvre - Christopher W. Mitchell, Wade Center, Wheaton College

Careful, comprehensive, and critical without being dismissive -- Wesley Vander Lugt -- Themelios

This work examines the theological relationship between creation and creativity in the works of J.R.R. Tolkien. It does so by bringing together a synthesis of various disciplines and perspectives to the creativity of J.R.R. Tolkien. Hart and Khovacs provide a fresh reading of these important themes in Tolkien, and the result captures the multi-faceted nature of Tolkien's own vivid theology and literary imagination.
