I have quite an extensive Tolkien-Bellamy comparison in the thesis, which hopefully might be a source of interest.

I'm still just double checking everything about distribution but I should be able to send it to those who have expressed interest in it forthwith.

As I say, just send me a private message if you want to read it.

Thanks again all for the kind words.
