Elfcon (also ELFcon), short for "Elvish Linguistic Fellowship Convention", is a convention first proposed by Jorge Quiñónez, and then organized and originally hosted by Bill Welden, dedicated to the study of the languages created by J. R. R. Tolkien. "Elfconners" is a loose term to refer to any attendee of an Elfcon, but the term is by some narrowed in use to refer to a specific group of people involved with unpublished linguistic writings by Tolkien. == E. L. F. Conventions == The ELFcon was the annual open conference of the E.L.F., advertised in the E.L.F. journals. The purpose of ELFcon was to present scholarly papers on any subject relating to Tolkien's invented languages, and then to discuss the paper amongst the attendees, and to serve as a friendly gathering of folks who share a common intellectual pursuit. There were four ELFcons: *First Annual Colloquium on the Languages of Middle-earth, later referred to as ELFcon I (1991) *Second Annual Coloquium on the Languages of Middle-earth, also known as ELFcon II (1992, report in Vinyar Tengwar #23) *ELFcon III (1993) *ELFcon IV (1994) ELFcons ended in 1994, but Tolkienist conventions organized by Bill Welden continue: ("International Conference on J.R.R. Tolkien's Invented Languages" ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Elfcon」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
