520    J.R.R. Tolkien, the beloved author of The Hobbit and The 
       Lord of the Rings, brings to his work a great treasure--
       his Christian faith. Tolkien's literary works are so 
       popular in part because, in some sense, they pertain to 
       the real world. This present volume is an attempt to 
       understand better the deep Christian influences on his 
       work but also to explore the relevance of Tolkien's work 
       for theology today. After examining Tolkien's fiction in 
       order better to appreciate Christian influences, this 
       volume takes a closer look at Tolkien's theology of 
       fantasy, his response to the more skeptical origins of 
       religion research, and applies his work to contemporary 
       questions about method in biblical studies. Tolkien's 
       Christianity informed all he wrote. Moreover, his own 
       theology of fantasy holds great promise for contemporary 
       theology.
