A Fearful Weapon

Abstract

The changes to Tolkien\u27s cosmology introduced in Myths Transformed were not well received. Certainly their realism is a 180% turn for the man who declared unequivocally that Fantasy remains a human right (72). Have Tolkien\u27s revisions, radical as they are, been “a fearful weapon” against his own creation? And if they have, how has the perception of that creation changed since the publication of Morgoth\u27s Ring in 1993? Has Tolkien\u27s weapon destroyed his imaginary world
