| | Middle-earth - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Tolkien translated "Middle Earth" as Endor (or sometimes Endóre) and Ennor in the Elvish languages Quenya and Sindarin, respectively. | | | Tolkien insisted that Middle-earth is (part of) our Earth in several of his letters, in one of them (no. 211) estimating the end of the Third Age to about 6,000 years before his own time. | | | Tolkien stated that the geography of Middle Earth was intended to align with that of our real Earth in several particulars. |

| | Books about J.R.R. Tolkien - The Real Middle-earth by Brian Bates - critical review and essay |
| | J.R.R. Tolkien books on Middle Earth, like The Hobbit and Lord of The Rings, are told as if the story takes place in a real existing place in a time long forgotton. | | | The Real Middle Earth presents a fine tour through the mythology of early medieval England, based on an original and compelling use of archaeological and literary sources. | | | The simularities between the real middle earth and Tolkiens Middle Earth are very obvious. |

| | Like the other Wizards, he had taken the form of an old man. Saruman was tall with a noble bearing. | | | He was wise and powerful, but he was also proud and he became corrupted by desire for the One Ring and was ensnared by the will of Sauron. | | | He had turned to evil and sought to establish dominion over Middle-earth and the Valar decided to send emissaries oppose him. |

| | Wizards (Middle-earth) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | It is hinted in the essay in Unfinished Tales that the Blue Wizards (see below) may have fallen prey to these temptations. | | | Two of these, the Blue Wizards, went into the East and do not come into the stories of Middle-earth. | | | The Istari also carried staves, which seem to be tied to their ability to wield magic; when Saruman is defeated at Isengard, Gandalf in the same breath casts him from the White Council and breaks his staff. |

| | In it, Gandalf is stated to be the only successful Istar, which first hints at the idea that the Blue Wizards failed their mission: "Indeed, of all the Istari, only one remained faithful, and he was the last-comer" (Unfinished Tales). | | | In this text Tolkien does begin to create a little story for the Blue Wizards, or at least an explanation of their fates, somewhat like that given in the first Unfinished Tales text, though here their failure is given as the more likely outcome. | | | Originally, nothing was known of them, and hardly a hint of their existence is in The Lord of the Rings. |
