[Excerpt]

In this exhibition, designed as a journey in Middle-earth, the public will enter the imaginary world created by the author of The Lord of the Rings. A writer, philologist and academic, J.R.R. Tolkien has built - through hundred-page stories, mostly unpublished in his lifetime – a modern form of “mythology” with its own languages, characters, geography, architecture, art and history.

As Tolkien was one of the most renowned specialists in medieval literature, his works resonate with medieval manuscripts, engravings, books and objects which are preserved at the BnF. The exhibition will display a dialogue between Tolkien’s stories and pieces from the BnF heritage collections, or from prestigious cultural institutions, giving French and European visitors some clues to enter an imaginary world nurtured by Anglo-Saxon references and traditions.
