Rise of Pop Culture Ep.4: Tolkien and Fantasy
About this episode
The episode discusses Tolkien's impact on the fantasy genre and contrasts his moral framework with later works like Harry Potter.
Everyone knows that Tolkien started the fantasy literature genre, but it wasn't the fantastical that made it special; it was his moral, imaginative framework, especially in contrast with later disenchanted fantasy stories like Harry Potter.
