The Silmarillion

Welcome to our study of The Silmarillion! Whether you are reading this incredible text for the first time or you are already familiar with these paths, I hope that you will find new insights and community through this study. Although it is not running in real-time, this course was made with you in mind, and most of the original participants are still somewhere around these parts.

From the preface to the end, each module contains a companion video and a recorded discussion of the text from the live run. Particularly if you are reading for the first time, I recommend reading the section first, then watching the companion video, and then listening to the discussion.

This course is currently open to Companions and will be open to Fellows on September 14, 2026.
