The Mythopoeic Fantasy Award (in the Inklings Studies category) has been won by José María Miranda Boto for his monograph Law, Government, and Society in J.R.R. Tolkien's Works.
The Walking Tree Publishers congratulate Miranda Boto on this prestigious recognition.
Miranda Boto's acceptance speech is shared below:
It is the most unexpected of honors for me to have been awarded the 2024 Mythopoeic Fantasy Award for Inklings Studies. Being a Spaniard and a lawyer, two strange characteristics that had never been present in a winner beforehand, I feel like a little Hobbit who is admitted to the Council of the Wise. |
Past winners of the award are listed on the following page of the Mythopoeic Society: www.mythsoc.org/awards/awards-winners.htm
