J.R.R. Tolkien: Scholar and Storyteller.
Essays in Memoriam.

Notes
This anthology was published as a tribute to Tolkien - both an academic and as an author.

It includes Tolkien’s Valedictory Address to the University of Oxford. This was delivered at Merton College Hall on 5 June 1959 and marked his retirement from the university.

A slightly amended version of the address can be found in The Monsters and the Critics and Other Essays (1983).
