Small improvement but HoMe Base now has Tables of Contents for Volumes 6, 7, 8, 9, and 11. We've also been working hard on text type designations for the Ainulindalë chapter in Volume 10.

We're working on a resource at the Digital Tolkien Project (@digitaltolkien.com) to rigorously document timeline interconnections in #LOTR so it's easier for fans and scholars to find fun facts like this, and easily see all the textual references that the conclusions are based on.

It's #timelinetuesday! Have you ever wondered: what is the date of the narrative at the very beginning of #LOTR? #Tolkien doesn't make it easy, but we can narrow it down to between September 1 and 12th, TA 3001 (SR 1401). How? Keep reading!

Announcing my thesis defence It’s official: my thesis defence is happening next week. Do I wish to postpone this event I’ve been fearing for 8 years now? Undoubtedly. Am I ready to be done with the PhD? Also yes. That being said,...

I've announced my thesis defence on my blog, along with a few stats for those who enjoy them! #Tolkien
