"Simply a delicate kin of a snowdrop" was how Tolkien described niphredil, small white flowers featured in Middle-earth legendarium, in a 1969 letter to Amy Ronald. They are associated with important themes in his stories, like hope and triumph over challenges. 🧵1/6

In The Lay of Leithian, Tolkien described how Huan the Hound know the healing herbs to help the wounded Beren. This knowledge of healing herbs and roots was comparable to other canines: the dogs of Gula, the Mesopotamian goddess of medicine. 1/4

"Then Huan came and bore a leaf, of all the herbs of healing chief, that evergreen in woodland glade there grew with broad and hoary blade. The powers of all grasses Huan knew, who wide did forest-paths pursue." J.R.R. Tolkien: The Lay of Leithian, canto 10 A painting of Luthien, an Elf woman with dark hair, riding on the back of Huan, a large hound, as it runs across a field of tall grass in the evening.

I always associate batik tambal, a batik motif from Yogyakarta, central region of Java, with Samwise Gamgee. The classic earthy colors and the patchwork motif represent down-to-earth wisdom, protection, and healing power under the humble face. 1/4

#TolkienTrewsday #TolkienTuesday
A painting of a comfortable and warm Hobbit burrow, with a fireplace lit. Sam, a hobbit wearing green vest, white shirt, and knee-length black pants, sitting on a green seat holding his baby daughter Elanor, gazing lovingly at her. Rosie, his wife, a beautiful Hobbit with curly, braided hair, standing next to his seat and looking at him affectionately. A fabric with tambal motif. Each grid is filled with dots, leaves, and curved line patterns. The main colors are ivory, light brown, and blue.

For #TolkienTrewsday (aka #TolkienTuesday), a video about Tolkien having a bit of a rant over a single kenning in Beowulf, that's probably been subtly mistranslated for years.

Urwen, Túrin's sister, was nicknamed Lalaith from a river, Nen Lalaith ("water of laughter"). When she died, Túrin couldn't say her name, for laughter had died with her. The connection between river, laughter, and grief later became prominent in Túrin's tale. 🧵1/3

#TolkienTrewsday #TolkienTuesday
A drawing by Anna Kulisz of Turin, a dark-haired boy in simple white shirt and brown pants, running and laughing on the meadow while being playfully chased by his sister Lalaith, a little blonde-haired girl in green dress. A black and white image of Lalaith by Ted Nasmith. A young girl with long, curly hair, laughing, with two butterflies flying around her.

Si vous ne connaissez que les adaptations, vous n’avez pas encore rencontré FREDEGAR BOLGEURRE, un ami de Frodo : même s'il ne sortit jamais du Comté, l'itinéraire de ce 5° Hobbit est néanmoins très intéressant. Jugez plutôt :⤵️🧙

For #TolkienTrewsday theme of Hobbit Day, I wrote a reflection. What do "Hobbitness" and home mean? Reading "The Hobbit" for the first time and recently made me realize that answering these means confronting history and memories.

What Does “Home” Mean? (Hobbit Day 2025 Post)
The comfort of home is the heart of ‘Hobbitness’, and creating one requires you to work, to learn, to remember, and to acknowledge. My personal reflection for Hobbit Day 2025.
