The Cormarë Series by Walking Tree Publishers releases compilations of scholarly essays on J.R.R. Tolkien, covering wide-ranging, broad and peculiar aspects of the legendarium or of Tolkien’s own life and academic work. Most releases were curated by Swiss Tolkien scholar Thomas Honegger.
In Middle-earth, Cormarë was the term for “Ring Day”, a celebration held in the Reunited Kingdom for Frodo Baggins after the destruction of the One Ring.
