''The Letters of J. R. R. Tolkien'' (ISBN 0-618-05699-8) is a selection of J. R. R. Tolkien's letters published in 1981, edited by Tolkien's biographer Humphrey Carpenter assisted by Christopher Tolkien. The selection contains 354 letters, dating between October 1914, when Tolkien was an undergraduate at Oxford, and 29 August 1973, four days before his death. ==Categories== The letters can be roughly divided in four categories: #Personal letters to Edith Tolkien, Christopher Tolkien and his other children, #Letters about Tolkien's career as a professor of Anglo-Saxon #Letters to his publishers at Allen & Unwin explaining his failing to meet the deadline and related topics #Letters about Middle-earth The last category is especially of interest to Tolkien fans, as it provides a lot of information about Middle-earth which cannot be found anywhere in the works published by Tolkien himself. 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「The Letters of J.
