Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings: Sources of Inspiration is a book of scholarly essays compiled by Stratford Caldecott and Thomas Honegger, published in 2008 by Walking Tree Publishers as a part of the Cormarë Series. The essays proceeded from a five-day Tolkien conference at Exeter College, Oxford in April 2006.
As with many Cormarë installments, the book "explores the spiritual, poetic, personal, and academic sources of inspiration" for The Lord of the Rings.
