Abstract:
In my thesis I examined the popularity of Tolkien's masterpiece The Lord of The Rings and compared how the work was received in two different periods, in the 1950's and 1960's after publication and then, later, in 2001 after the film version directed by Peter Jackson was released. I also focused on religion and J. R. R. Tolkien and to what extent it had influence on LOTR.
