The World of J.R.R Tolkien

Dr Sara Brown: English Teacher.

Sara Brown has been a high school teacher for twenty-five years and currently works full time in Rydal Penrthos School in North Wales. Besides her BA (Hons) in English and History, Sara has a Master’s degree in International History from the London School of Economics, for which she wrote a thesis on The Problem of the Gold Standard in International Politics and Economics in the Nineteenth Century. She completed her PhD in Literature at Salford University in 2013. Entitled From Abjection to Alchemy in J.R.R Tolkien’s Middle-earth Legendarium, the thesis explores the way in which Tolkien was responding to the anxieties of the post-war world in the mid-twentieth century, drawing on (amongst others) the theories of Julia Kristeva and Donna Haraway.
