متن يادداشت

In this book, Lisa Coutras explores the structure and complexity of J.R.R. Tolkien̐Μư̐Μư̐Μưs narrative theology, synthesizing his Christian worldview with his creative imagination. She illustrates how, within the framework of a theological aesthetics, transcendental beauty is the unifying principle that integrates all aspects of Tolkien̐Μư̐Μư̐Μưs writing, from pagan despair to Christian joy. J.R.R. Tolkien̐Μư̐Μư̐Μưs Christianity is often held in an unsteady tension with the pagan despair of his mythic world. Some critics portray these as incompatible, while Christian analysis tends to oversimplify the presence of religious symbolism. This polarity of opinion testifies to the need for a unifying interpretive lens. The fact that Tolkien saw his own writing as ̐Μư̐Μư̐Μưreligious̐Μư̐Μư̐Μư and ̐Μư̐Μư̐ΜưCatholic,̐Μư̐Μư̐Μư yet was preoccupied with pagan mythology, nature, language, and evil, suggests that these areas were wholly integrated with his Christian worldview. Tolkien̐Μư̐Μư̐Μưs Theology of Beauty examines six structural elements, demonstrating that the author̐Μư̐Μư̐Μưs Christianity is deeply embedded in the narrative framework of his creative imagination.
