Seen & Unseen | Holly Ordway: The Christian faith of JRR Tolkien @SeenUnseenMag | Uploaded May 2024 | Updated October 2024, 8 hours ago.
Holly Ordway is a scholar of English literature who is a professor at the Word on Fire Institute in the USA and Houston Christian University.

Holly has written about literary and imaginative apologetics, edited and annotated a volume of Gerard Manley Hopkins' poetry, and has also gone on to publish major books on the works of one of her literary heroes JRR Tolkien. These are the award-wining 'Tolkien’s Modern Reading: Middle-earth Beyond the Middle Ages’ and the recently published book ‘Tolkien’s Faith: A Spiritual biography’.

Today we’ll be exploring Holly’s own journey and why Tolkien’s world of hobbits, elves, wizards and warriors continues to enchant so many in our world.
