Trashing the Silmarillion
How much of the labor of the Silmarillion is actually JRRT's? I have bought and read some of the HoMe which gives different accounts of events as published in the Silmarillion. Inoldonil informed me that the Nauglamir was actually made for Thingol and not Finrod
 The Silmarillion was edited by C.T.. So are the HoMe. Why are the accounts in the histories more acceptable than in the Sil.? Should I just trash my Silmarillion and believe the histories now? I loved the Silmarillion, but the HoMe are changing the story that I grew to love so much. Now I don't know what versions to believe. Maybe I should trash the HoMe, but I can't Thoughts please? |
