  1. Oggi mi sono decisa e mi sono iscritta alla #TolkienSociety. Mi dispiace per quella italiana, avrei preferito poter essere più partecipe, ma anche dopo averlo chiesto espressamente ho solo ricevuto una newsletter di un evento, annuale (ma lo conosco 😭).

    UNA newsletter,
    nel senso di UNA mail 😔

    Gwîl✌️ Leggerò i libri di Comastri pensando a voi.

  2. Day 1 of the Christopher Tolkien Centenary Conference was fantastic. So many wonderful talks by many scholars and folks whose essays and books are on my shelf.

    Many thanks to the Tolkien Society for putting it all together. Looking forward to Day 2, though I'll have to miss some of the later bits with church and other family obligations.

  7. Working through the schedule for Oxonmoot 2024 in August/September - which I will be watching online on catchup for months after. And there are some marvellously titled talks. I particularly like "In a Hole in the Ground There Lived a Cassette", and "From Mushrooms to Man-flesh via Maggots: Food and Consumption in Middle-Earth". #streaming #Oxonmoot #TolkienSociety #Tolkien #MiddleEarth #LordOfTheRings #Conference #Convention #Oxford

  8. Registered as an online delegate for the #TolkienSociety #conference #Oxonmoot this autumn. Helped by a hefty early bird discount slashing my society member online attendance fee in half. Their Oxonmoot #streaming has worked brilliantly for the last few years, and I can watch on catchup slowly, working around my neuro illness. tolkiensociety.org/events/oxon #Tolkien #MiddleEarth #LordOfTheRings #Oxford

  9. Tolkien's Birthday Toast

    Each year on the 3rd January, the Tolkien Society encourages Tolkien fans from across the world to celebrate The Professor's birthday with a simple toast-drinking ceremony.

    At 9pm (your local time):
    1. Stand
    2. Raise a glass of your choice of drink (it need not be alcoholic)
    3. Toast the birthday of the much loved author with the words 'The Professor'.
    4. Take a sip (or swig) from your drink.
    5. Then sit and enjoy the rest.

  11. ¿Alguien sabe dónde se puede encontrar #artwork de El Señor de los Anillos que se pueda reproducir libremente? Especialmente interesado en paisajes de la Comarca. Es para ilustrar diapositivas en un congreso de Enseñanza de Física (hablaré sobre #Calendarios y #Tolkien). #STE #Tolkiendili #TolkienSociety #SociedadTolkienEspañola #LordOfTheRigns #LOTR #ElSeñorDeLosAnillos #ESDLA #SmialSTE

  12. Dinner to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the #TolkienSociety #Oxonmoot - at Tolkien's undergraduate college.

  13. On the bus to Oxford for the #TolkienSociety #Oxonmoot It's a special one this year, the 50th - having been held every year since that first pilgrimage to Tolkien's grave.

    It's now a hybrid event, with 700 attendees both in person and online.

  14. Booked myself in for the Tolkien Society conference Oxonmoot in 2023. It can be attended in person or online & I’ve attended online since that was offered in 2020. Works brilliantly. I usually watch later on catchup. Discount rate available till February. tolkiensociety.org/events/oxon
