A propos de cet article

Two volumes, each inscribed by the author. Stated First edition, first printings, March 1989. Velo-bound. A couple small spots of tea splash on fore-edge of one volume, else clean and unmarked. Approximately 500 & 300 leaves, printed on rectos only. 11 x 8.5 inches. Three copies noted on OCLC (Wheaton, Marquette, Bowling Green). Inscribed by Paul Nolan Hyde on preface pages, ''Bruce / I hope these / benefit you. I think / now you have everything I / do that is in print. It is a / bit overwhelming, but perhaps / useful after all. / [signature]'' and ''Bruce, / I think that / your enthusiasm for Tolkien's / linguistics may have overcome / you. It is not a totally unpleasant / disease. / [signature].'' Hyde's reverse dictionary of Tolkien's Middle-earth languages, like his seven-volume A Working Tolkien Glossary that consisted of four copies, is also presumed to have been produced in an extremely small number of copies. The first volume of this reverse dictionary consists of an alphabetical listing of reverse-spelled morphological elements in the languages of Middle-earth, together with volume and page number where related information (such as language, part of speech, translation) is documented, in the following works of J.R.R. Tolkien: The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, The Silmarillion, Unfinished Tales, The Book of Lost Tales, The Lays of Beleriand, The Shaping of Middle-earth, The Lost Road, The Return of the Shadow, The Road goes Ever On, The Letters of J.R.R. Tolkien, The Monsters and the Critics, and ''Guide to Names'' in A Tolkien Compass. The second volume, which does not include meanings, is an alphabetical listing of reverse-spelled morphological elements in the languages of Middle-earth together with volume, page number, and the original entry (without other linguistic information) in the works of Tolkien as previously noted. Paul Nolan Hyde (1942-2021) was a professor of linguistics at Brigham Young University and a specialist in the Tolkien Legendarium. He authored Quenti Lambardillion, the Middle-earth linguistics column in the journal Mythlore between 1982 and 1992, and also contributed to Vinyar Tengwar, the journal of the Elvish Linguistic Fellowship. Tolkien's linguistics served as the subject of both his Ph.D. dissertation and his master's thesis: the 1200-page ''Linguistic Techniques Used in Character Development in the Works of J. R. R. Tolkien'' (Purdue, 1982) and ''A Descriptive Analysis of the Languages Used in J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings'' (BYU, 1972).…
