Volumes one and two were published in 1913. Volume three in 1920. Gilt decorated green cloth. Gilt is worn from spines and soiling along spines has uniformly turned each of the three spines much darker. The provenance of this book is fascinating. The George Eastman House is rebuilding the library of George Eastman with the exact same copies he owned. As titles are located with his bookplate they replace other copies that the local community of Rochester, NY donated to 'stand-in' for the originals.When the originals are located, these stand-ins find a new home. This book has a book plate on the inner flap indicating this was a gift to the Eastman House. Seller Inventory # 101030

Condition: new. World first publication of the collected poems of J.R.R. Tolkien, spanning almost seven decades of the authors life and presented in an elegant three-volume hardcover boxed set.J.R.R. Tolkien aspired to be a poet in the first instance, and poetry was part of his creative life no less than his prose, his languages, and his art. Although Tolkiens readers are aware that he wrote poetry, if only from verses in The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, its extent is not well known, and its qualities are underappreciated. Within his larger works of fiction, poems help to establish character and place as well as further the story; as individual works, they delight with words and rhyme. They express his love of nature and the seasons, of landscape and music, and of words. They convey his humor and his sense of wonder.The earliest work in this collection, written for his beloved, is dated to 1910, when Tolkien was eighteen. More poems would follow during his years at Oxford, some of them very elaborate and eccentric. Those he composed during the First World War, in which he served in France, tend to be concerned not with trenches and battle, but with life, loss, faith, and friendship, his longing for England and the wife he left behind. Beginning in 1914, elements of his legendarium, The Silmarillion, began to appear, and the Matter of Middle-earth would inspire much of Tolkiens verse for the rest of his life.Within The Collected Poems of J.R.R. Tolkien almost 200 works are presented across three volumes, including more than 60 that have never before been seen. The poems are deftly woven together with commentary and notes by world-renowned Tolkien scholars Christina Scull & Wayne G. Hammond, placing them in the context of Tolkiens life and literary accomplishments and creating a poetical biography that is a unique and revealing celebration of J.R.R. Tolkien. 1.5.
