Dedicated to J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings :: Elvish
Interview with David Salo David Salo is the man behind all Elvish translations in the LotR movies. Recently, I sat down with him (he was at one computer and I was at another, but I assume we were both sitting down), and here's what he had to say:
Light from the Shadows
We live in a flicker of light/Swift as a swallow’s wings/A day of sunshine and pain./Then dusk falls./And the bird flies home in the evening.

There are lots of "leaders" in Tolkien's works who have acquired their positions through birth - but how do they actually prove to the people they are supposed to be leading that they are worthy of that position? There are other "leaders" who acquire their leadership positions even though they don't appear "qualified" by the customs or prejudices of that community. How do these characters convince people to follow them into difficult situations, such as into certain death in battle or a new life in a different place? How does "simple gardener" Sam get to be Mayor of the Shire? Why does everyone just accept Merry's leadership in the battles in Scouring of the Shire?
