Levitate posted:I think plenty of people would not call LoTR literature, but I'm not really sure what the definition of literature really is. The best definition I ever heard for literature is "any (written) work that speaks to the human condition." I'll leave the debate open on LotR, but Tolkien's mythology fits in a very long tradition of English pastoral poetry and prose. Just look at Milton's earlier works such as "Lycidas," and you'll see something thematically similar to the early shire parts.
