The impact of Tolkien The influence of Tolkien is very big, but in general it is the three most prominent; his experience of rural youth in the UK, the desire to learn his enthusiastic susceptibility and language, and the war Battle of participating love, love of nature. Turkien himself also strongly denied that war had influenced his story. 'The real war is not like a legendary war process or conclusion. If I am inspired or lead the development of the legend, this ring will definitely be used against Soren. 'The affection for Turkien's word is always through his childhood
Tolkien also acknowledged some non-German influences and some sources of his stories and ideas. Sophocles plays Oedipus Rex citing the moving elements of the children of The Silmarillion and Húrin. In addition, when Tolkien attended King Edward's school, he first read the translation of Finnish national epic Kalewara's William Forsel Kirby. He explained the character of Vainamoinen as one of his influences on Gandalf the Gray. Kalevala's anti herurist Kullervo is further described as a source of inspiration for Túrin Turambar. Dimitra Fimi, Douglas A. Anderson, John Garth and many other well-known Tolkien scholars believe that Tolkien was also influenced by the history and legends of the various Celtic people (Ireland, Scotland and Wales). However, after the manuscript of Silmarillion was rejected, in part due to its "division of eyes" Celtic name, Tolkien denied their Celtic origins.
In terms of style, Tolkien is perfectly consistent with the formula used by British writers from the 19th century to the 20th century, including some of the Celtic influences. Among enthusiastic Tolkien 's critics believe that this sentence, especially Turkien, is a genius work. For example, Shippey believes that the following is one of many wonderful clauses on the "Lord of the Rings". (9) "The sun in the evening is warm, the golden afternoon becomes sleepy, the river that is in contact with the ancient willow is shaped like an arch and has been closed with a fallen willow, thousands of willows The breeze, the reed scarcely, the branches of the willow became wrinkled.
