J.R.R. Tolkien, the so-called creator of Middle Earth, has a high reputation as a linguistic scholar and a writer of fiction. In reality, he was nothing of the sort. His research was centered mainly on finding plots and names he could copy, and his writing was merely the results of this. The truth about this shameless copycat could have been revealed if his son, Christopher Tolkien, had published the many sheets of cheating notes his father kept in his study. Instead, Tolkien jr. went to great lengths to hide the despicable acts of thievery by doctoring his father's drafts and sketches, aiming to prove that Professor Tolkien was the sole creator of the aforementioned works.
Money talks, and above its cacaphonical babble it has been hard if not to say impossible to reveal the scam to the general public. The media are so much in the pockets of the publishing houses that they dare not lift their heads in more than the feeblest protest, and even then it is merely symbolic. The truth as it really is, will never reach print in this world. The best we can do is to publish our findings on the Internet, hoping that at least a small number of people can be reached.
- Tolkien did not use a single original name! -
- Tolkien stole his stories from others! -
- Tolkien recycled his own stories! -
