Books edited, translated, or with contributions by J.R.R.Tolkien
In this section you can find all books to which Tolkien contibuted,
reaching fom part of the editorial staff towards helper and adviser 'behind
the scenes'. Tolkien spend a lot of time helping out others and most of
the works that resulted from this genorous helping, are not mentioned
as his work but in reality are.
It is said that Tolkien spended hours and hours with his students (wished
i could have been one of them), giving them that much help that in the
end their work was almost completely his. Also his fellow academic collegues
got the same kind attention.
All this off course results in an impressive list of work Tolkien contributed
to, and to a certain extend the list is still growing. It is very hard
to track down all work with contributions of Tolkien, since there are
really so many. Also the kind of books show a lot of variation, they for
example contain poetry (oxford poetry, fifty
new poems for children,...), religious texts (the jerusalem
bible), essays (essays and studies, elizabethan
acting,...), etc.
