"The bigger things get the smaller and duller or flatter the globe gets. It is getting to be all one blasted little provincial suburb. When they have introduced American sanitation, morale-pep, feminism, and mass production throughout the Near East, Middle East, Far East, U.S.S.R., the Pampas, el Gran Chaco, the Danubian Basin, Equatorial Africa, Hither Further and Inner Mumboland, Gondhwanaland, Lhasa, and the villages of darkest Berkshire, how happy we shall be. ...
But seriously: I do find this Americo-cosmopolitanism very terrifying. Quâ mind and spirit, and neglecting the piddling fears of timid flesh which does not want to be shot or chopped by brutal and licentious soldiery (German or other), I am not really sure that its victory is going to be so much the better for the world as a whole and in the long run than the victory of ——.
I don't suppose letters in are censored. But if they are, or not, I need to you hardly add that them's the sentiments of a good many folk — and no indication of lack of patriotism. For I love England (not Great Britain and certainly not the British Commonwealth (grr!)), and if I was of military age, I should, I fancy, be grousing away in a fighting service, and willing to go on to the bitter end – always hoping that things may turn out better for England than they look like doing. Somehow I cannot really imagine the fantastic luck (or blessing, one would call it, if one could dimly see why we should be blessed – implying God) that has attended England is running out yet. Chi vincera? said the Italians (before they got involved poor devils), and answered Stalin. Not altogether right perhaps. Our Cherub (Churchill) above referred to can play a wily hand – one guesses, one hopes, one does not know. ...." - J.R.R. Tolkien
>I regret that I am not clear as to what you intend by arisch. I am not of Aryan extraction: that is Indo-iranian... But if I am to understand that you are enquiring whether I am of Jewish origin, I can only reply that I regret that I appear to have no ancestors of that gifted people.

Brody Price
Pretty convenient how that letter was only produced decades later in order to try to prove he wasn't racist. A bit odd that it isn't in his handwriting though.
Charles Perry
He literally shilled against Hitler and National Socialism. He was a Jewish stooge.
Jace Gonzalez
Chaim, you're in a thread started with a quote about how he wasn't against Hitler. Pay the fuck attention.
Ethan Bennett
If you cannot find an ally even in the brilliant mind of Tolkien, there is no hope.

>Dear Sirs,
>Thank you for your letter. I regret that I am not clear as to what you intend by arisch. I am not of Aryan extraction: that is Indo-Iranian; as far as I am aware none of my ancestors spoke Hindustani, Persian, Gypsy, or any related dialects. But if I am to understand that you are enquiring whether I am of Jewish origin, I can only reply that I regret that I appear to have no ancestors of that gifted people. My great-great-grandfather came to England in the eighteenth century from Germany: the main part of my descent is therefore purely English, and I am an English subject — which should be sufficient. I have been accustomed, nonetheless, to regard my German name with pride, and continued to do so throughout the period of the late regrettable war, in which I served in the English army. I cannot, however, forbear to comment that if impertinent and irrelevant inquiries of this sort are to become the rule in matters of literature, then the time is not far distant when a German name will no longer be a source of pride.
>Your enquiry is doubtless made in order to comply with the laws of your own country, but that this should be held to apply to the subjects of another state would be improper, even if it had (as it has not) any bearing whatsoever on the merits of my work or its sustainability for publication, of which you appear to have satisfied yourselves without reference to my Abstammung.
>I have in this War a burning private grudge—which would probably make me a better soldier at 49 than I was at 22: against that ruddy little ignoramus Adolf Hitler (for the odd thing about demonic inspiration and impetus is that it in no way enhances the purely intellectual stature: it chiefly affects the mere will). Ruining, perverting, misapplying, and making for ever accursed, that noble northern spirit, a supreme contribution to Europe, which I have ever loved, and tried to present in its true light.
You were saying, kike?

Wyatt Watson
>brilliant mind of Tolkien lmfao he was writing fantasy cringe about orcs and wizard and dwarves, literal shit for incels. You know those kikes who write the screenplays for capeshit nowadays that the s0ys eat up? That was Tolkien.
>everything that rejects my (((narrative))) is fake that last paragraph isn't from the same letter. i posted the first one i quoted in full for context and in the second quote he's literally insulting Hitler and National Socialism directly
Henry Bennett
Yeah, but that clueless bong retard didn’t know a fucking thing about the filthy jew subhumans.
He should have spent less time making up fantasy languages, like a sperg, and more time studying real history and pre-history, etc.

>the letter produced decades after the fact in response to allegations of racism and is not in JRR's handwriting is totally real just trust us goy!
Isaiah Ross
I will not walk with your nigger apes,
erect and semi-sapient. Before them gapes
the dark anus to which their sodomy tends Pray God’s mercy niggerdom soon ends,
and does not ceaselessly revolve the same
unfruitful course with changing of a name.
I will not treat your dusty path and flat,
denoting this and that by this and that,
your world immutable wherein no part
the little maker has with maker’s art.
I bow not yet before the inbred jew,
I stand with pride amongst the Nazi few.
Blake Ortiz
>Nigger jew calling others ‘mutts’
Your projection is pathetic, subhuman

Letters 30 and 45. Letter 45 contains the last paragraph I quoted.
Also from Letter 81:
>The English pride themselves, or used to, on 'sportsmanship' (which included 'giving the devil his due'), not that attendance at a league football match was not enough to dispel the notion that 'sportsmanship' was possessed by any very large number of the inhabitants of this island. But it is distressing to see the press grovelling in the gutter as low as Goebbels in his prime, shrieking that any German commander who holds out in a desperate situation (when, too, the military needs of his side clearly benefit) is a drunkard, and a besotted fanatic.
>I can't see much distinction between our popular tone and the celebrated 'military idiots'. We knew Hitler was a vulgar and ignorant little cad, in addition to any other defects (or the source of them); but there seem to be many v. and i. l. cads who don't speak German, and who given the same chance would show most of the other Hitlerian characteristics. There was a solemn article in the local paper seriously advocating systematic exterminating of the entire German nation as the only proper course after military victory: because, if you please, they are rattlesnakes, and don't know the difference between good and evil! (What of the writer?) The Germans have just as much right to declare the Poles and Jews exterminable vermin, subhuman, as we have to select the Germans: in other words, no right, whatever they have done.
Are you denying the authenticity of all of his letters now Moshe?
Landon Turner
ok retard. I'm sure that somehow you are more creative and inspired than he was.
Caleb Turner
>ok retard. I'm sure that somehow you are more creative and inspired than he was.
Am I the only one reading this as based irony? As in, faking support of Jews and shitposting against allegations he was jewish? He subscribed to a "fascist" magazine before the war, shitposting isn't out of the question >I regret to inform you I am not of that important super-chosen people as you have suggested, now fuck off
