Talk:Round World version of the Silmarillion
"This version emerged in writings from 1958-1960" Are you sure of that ?
HOME 10 foreword of Ainulindalë : "as will be seen in a moment there is certain evidence that the text C* was in existence by 1948. "
Should not be "1948-1950" ?
- This article is about the revision of the whole Silmarillion that was intended in later writings. Like explained in the article, the Ainulindale C* was an experimental text that was rejected and had no impact in the Legendarium at that moment. --LorenzoCB 15:17, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
But the Ainulindalë C*, where the new conception emerged is about 1946-48 it seems, so this conception emerged before 1958. I don't understand why theses dates have been chosen for the "emerge time"
sorry, i'm not from english culture, so may be I don't understand what is really meaning.
You can forget my last talk :)
Nonetheless, the description of this conception (Arda = solar system, no lamps, moon wrought from a piece of earth...) is what we can found in the Ainulindalë C*
I only found one second text where these this other version : the Myths transformed # 2 in the Home 10 (with a brief mention in the fifth).
But the article says : "The Round World version is one of the variants of J.R.R. Tolkien's Legendarium, published in the final volumeS of The History of Middle-earth. "
Is there other texts in other HOME ?
If not, it should be more precise to say : "The Round World version is one of the variants of J.R.R. Tolkien's Legendarium, treated in the second text of the Myths Transformed, published in the HOME 10" Shouldn't it ?
