Old Forest
In J. R. R. Tolkien’s fictional universe of Middle-earth, the Old Forest was a daunting and ancient woodland just beyond the eastern borders of the Shire. Its first and main appearance in print was in ''The Fellowship of the Ring'', especially in chapter VI, which is itself titled "The Old Forest".
Forests play an enormous role throughout the invented history of Tolkien's Middle-earth and are inevitably an important episode on the heroic quests of his characters.〔New York Times Book Review, ''The Hobbit'', by Anne T. Eaton, March 13, 1938, "After the dwarves and Bilbo have passed ...over the Misty Mountains and through ''forests that suggest those of William Morris's prose romances''." (emphasis added)〕 The forest device is used as a mysterious transition from one part of the story to another.〔Lobdell, Jared (). ''A Tolkien Compass''. La Salle, IL: Open Court. ISBN 0-87548-316-X. p. 84, "only look at The Lord of the Rings for the briefest of times to catch a vision of ancient forests, of trees like men walking, of leaves and sunlight, and of deep shadows."〕
