There is a sublime humility present in the LotR, standing there amidst it's lessers. I think that this should be relished, we that have been indoctrinated know what is buried in there. Treasure yet still buried is all the sweeter in the finding.

Very nicely put, Tar-Palantir, though I must say that at the bookstores I frequent, Tolkien is hardly buried these days; rather the other way around. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
For what it's worth, the libraries I go to shelve the prof in general fiction (right alongside Tolstoy) rather than in the sci-fi/fantasy section.
