Dr. Marc Zender contacted me yesterday about a new Tolkien class he is teaching at Harvard starting in January. I'm helping spread the word so if you have the opportunity to the class, take it. Trust me, his two guest speakers will make it well worthwhile.
You can read full details about the class here. It is ANTH E-164 "Tolkien as Translator: Language, Culture and Society in Middle-Earth".
The guest speakers are Robert Foster and Dick Plotz. I'm very, very impressed.
Dr. Zender contacted me last May about his first Tolkien class which was offered over the summer.
I'll be starting a discussion about the class at The Tolkien Forum on SF-Fandom.
