In 2012, Lisa Kuppler (Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung) paid tribute to the writer J.R.R. TOLKIEN (1892 to 1973), who invented a fictional world called Middle Earth inhabited by 'hobbits', with the words: "It is this complex creation of an entire world that makes 'The Lord of the Rings' the original text of the fantasy genre." Two decades earlier - on the occasion of his 100th birthday - a bench and two trees were dedicated to him here, in Oxford's university park. Tolkien's most popular work to date includes the volumes: "The Fellowship of the Ring" (Volume 1); "The Two Towers" (Volume 2); "The Return of the King" (Volume 3). Many people may not have read his books, but they know the film version of this great myth.
