Where did he draw his inspiration from? How do the Finnish language and the Kalevala relate to a fantasy world populated by hobbits, elves and dwarves?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cspan\u003eIn addition to his writing career, Tolkien was a myth-loving linguist and professor at Oxford University. He was fascinated by the Kalevala, studied Finnish, and used the stories and vocabulary of our national epic in his own writings. Tolkien and the Kalevala explores the influence of the Kalevala on Tolkien's stories and world.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cspan\u003e“It is a well-known fact that Tolkien loved the Kalevala, but it took Finnish Kalevala expert Jyrki Korpua to figure out what it meant in practice. Tolkien and the Kalevala maps the connections between Tolkien's world and the Kalevala with a thoroughness that can hardly be added to.”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cspan\u003eKersti Juva\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Jyrki Korpua","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49249147191639,"sku":"9789518583168","price":29.8,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0613\/6735\/3557\/files\/3577589.jpg?v=1728386747","url":"https:\/\/terotpuoti.com\/en\/products\/tolkien-ja-kalevala-jyrki-korpua","provider":"Tarotpuoti","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
