Beschreibung
This book is the first to develop a theory of fiction-based religion, offering a comprehensive analysis of Tolkien spirituality, a largely online network drawing on J.R.R. Tolkien's narratives for spiritual inspiration. It raises important questions for the study of religions, exploring how some readers come to believe that supernatural agents from fictional narratives are real, how adherents legitimise their beliefs, and how traditions develop.
