What comes first 'The Hobbit' or 'The Lord of the Rings'?

The Hobbit is set about 60 years before most of the events in The Lord of the Rings.The Hobbit was published in 1937. The Lord of the Rings did not come out for over 20 years after that. It took Tolkien a long time to write the follow up.


What year was the fellowship of the ring written?

After some time, The Hobbit was published, and Tolkien was asked to write a sequel to the novel. He first thought to send Bilbo on another adventure because he had run out of money then he started conceiving The Lord of the Rings as we know it. He took fifteen/twenty years to create and write LotR, and The Fellowship of the Ring was published in 1954.


How many Lord of the Rings movies are coming after the hobit?

None. The story has been completed. There are other works of Tolkien that may get made into movies. Currently there is discussion about putting the book The Hobbit on the screen. It is a prequel to the Lord of the Rings. The other books about Middle-earth occur long before the Third Age and the time of Men. Yes, there will be a new lord of the rings movie, called the Hobbit. It is based on Tolkien's original book set in Middle-earth before the events of LOTR. Peter Jackson is directing these two movies (yes, there will be two), and as I write they are rebuilding Hobbiton. I'm not sure if Ian McKellen (Gandalf) and Hugo Weaving (Elrond) will be retaking their old roles, but I hope so, since it would give the films a sense of continuity. All I know so far! Thanks.


What is Kirsty in elvish?

You need to realize that Quenya and Sindarin are made up languages and Tolkien never defined a vocabulary of more than the few hundred words he needed for the stories. The other languages have even smaller vocabularies (for example the only known words of the pure Black Speech are the ring inscription). Sorry. You could settle for learning to write English mode Tengwar and writing the name in it.


When was the book Lord of the Rings written?

When it was written or actually published? I think J.R.R Tolkien started to write the Lord of the Rings in 1937 after the Hobbit, and then was published in 1954."It was written in stages between 1937 and 1949, much of it during World War II."

J.R.R. Tolkien worked on "The Lord of the Rings" for over 12 years, from around 1937 to 1949. This epic novel was a continuation of his previous work, "The Hobbit," and Tolkien constantly revised and expanded upon the story during this time.


Did J.R.R. Tolkien write The Hobbit or The Lord of the Rings first?

J.R.R. Tolkien wrote The Hobbit first (in the 1930s, released in 1937). He wrote The Lord of the Rings between 1937 and 1950, and was published in 1954/5; he started work on The Lord of the Rings after The Hobbit was published.He had actually written the stories that make up The Silmarillion even earlier, while recovering in a hospital during world war 1 from combat wounds. But while many parts of both The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings stories refer to events in The Silmarillion, Tolkien never felt those stories were finished and was always reediting them throughout his life, so he never made a serious attempt to get them published himself.

Did J.R.R. Tolkien write more things about the Lord of the Rings that he never published?

Oh yes. His son, Christopher Tolkien, has spent the past few decades collecting, editing, and glossing volume after volume of J.R.R. Tolkien's notes, drafts, and ideas. There are 12 volumes of these - called the History of Middle-earth - far more words than the LOTR, the Hobbit, and the Silmarillion combined. Some of these writings include ideas that Tolkien later rejected, others writings where he fleshed out ideas and concepts for his own satisfaction but which really couldn't be put into LOTR without completely bogging the text down.
