THE BOOK OF JONAH WILL BE PUBLISHE

EDITOR NOTE RELEASED:


The October 2014 issue of the Journal of Inklings Studies will be a special issue on the Inklings and the Bible.

It will include articles on C.S. Lewis’s “Liar, Lord or Lunatic” paradox, Lewis’s use of the Bible in his RAF talks, Lewis and Jerome, and J.R.R. Tolkien’s philosophy of creation. It will also include original texts by two Inklings: Charles Williams’s review of the Bible in Basic English, and J.R.R. Tolkien’s original translation of the Book of Jonah for the Jerusalem Bible.

Tolkien’s translation of Jonah as it appears in the Jerusalem Bible is a collaborative effort, drafted by Tolkien but edited by a style editor employed to standardize the grammar and vocabulary of the various translators contributing to the Jerusalem Bible. With kind permission, we are able to make available Tolkien’s original translation from Bodleian Manuscript. A research article by Brendan Wolfe on the history and features of the translation will accompany the text.

To order or subscribe, go to the Journal of Inklings Studies website.

Thank you for that information tolkienbrasil.

Looking at the website, the October issue (Vol 4 No 2) does not appear to be available to purchase yet as a single issue.

Just a reminder that you can now buy the October 2014 Journal of Inklings Studies.

and on Thursday the 9th October, the Pocket Tom Bombadil is published

I will be VERY surprised if this book actually happens, now.

Thanks, Trotter! I've been checking their website regularly, but had failed to see that it's now available -- didn't want to miss out on this one!

Thanks! Just ordered it.

Believe that this is probably the last of the pocket books, though I suppose Leaf by Niggle, Mr Bliss, Father Christmas Letters are also candidates as well for this book format.
