Tolkien´s<br>THE LORD OF THE RINGS<br>A cultural phenomenon<br>I want to find out to what extent fantasy literature deals with topical issues and, above all, what makes Tolkien´s work, half a century after its publication, still so attractive for millions of people.<br>Therefore, I have made up a survey for The Lord of the Rings-fans.<br>It comprises 40 questions, which are to be answered either by putting a cross or by writing down a few notes (if a question is marked with *, more than one answer is possible). The survey is subdivided into 4 parts:<br>A) General questions<br>B) Concerning the books<br>C) Concerning Peter Jackson´s film adaptation<br>D) Concerning fan communities<br>By analyzing the results of the survey, I want to find out what makes The Lord of the Rings so attractive for fans and in how far it is part of their daily lives.<br>In order to be able to write my school work I need about 100-200 replies. <br>Please send your answers via e-mail to tobi.hock@t-online.de (Reference: LotR Survey).<p>Of course, I am aware of the fact that answering the questions will take some time; yet I hope for lively participation, as the success of my school work and thus a part of my final graduation mark now lies in your hands.<br>At the end of the survey there is space for critical remarks and additional comments.<br>Thank you very much for your participation.<p>Yours sincerely,<p>Tobias Hock<br>
