Description

The Lord of the Rings is an epic high fantasy novel written by the English academic and philologist J. R. R. Tolkien. The story began as a sequel to Tolkien’s earlier work, The Hobbit, but developed into a much larger story. It was written in stages between 1937 and 1949, with much of it being created during World War II.^[1] Although intended as a single-volume work, it was originally published in three volumes in 1954 and 1955, and it is in this three-volume form that it is popularly known. It has since been reprinted numerous times and translated into many different languages,^[2] becoming one of the most popular works in 20th-century literature.

The story of the The Lord of the Rings takes place in an alternate pre-history, the Third Age of Middle-earth. The lands of Middle-earth are populated by Men (humans) and other humanoid races (Hobbits, Elves, Dwarves, and Orcs), as well as many other real and fantastical creatures. The story centres on the Ring of Power made by the Dark Lord Sauron, and from quiet beginnings in the Shire ranges across Middle-earth following the course of the War of the Ring through the eyes of its characters, most notably the central protagonist Frodo Baggins. The main story is followed in the book by six appendices that provide a wealth of historical and linguistic background material.
