Whether it s a massive war or simply a hobbit drinking tea, everything in Middle-earth has a lot of complex history behind it. We re taking a look at the world of J. R. R. Tolkien and explaining the long and lengthy history of Middle-earth.
Tolkien's world begins with the events of the Ainulindal, or the Music of the Ainur. The Ainur are a race of angelic spirits that are the offspring of the thought of Il vatar, the creator and chief being in Tolkien's world. The Ainur are known for their singing, although initially they only sing individually.
Kimberella: Couldn't Tolkien just as easily given his characters names that were easy to follow? John, jake, bob, lou. if you start out with these 20 letter names with no consonants you have nowhere else to go from there other than to continually make names harder to remember. No wonder every fan has to watch every movie AT LEAST TWICE: the first time they have to take notes on who begat whom and then the second time around is a quiz to make sure your notes are in order. After study and some extensive memorization exercises, by the 5th viewing one should be able to actually enjoy it. Date: 2020-11-13
