Episode 64: A-door-able Doors

Athrabeth - A podcast by Jude Vais & Stef Midlock

Categories:

Join us this month for a discussion of Tolkien’s doors, exploring various door themes from literature with examples of each theme. First we’ll look at doors as boundaries between physical places, with examples of the Doors of Durin and the Door of Night. Next, we’ll talk about doors as places of transition between states of being, with examples of Bag End’s Green Door and the Closed Door. Finally, we’ll discuss doors as keepers of secrets, including the overly-hilarious Back Door and the mysterious Door under Dwimorberg. We hope to deepen your un-door-standing of Tolkien’s doors!
