Lights Lost: Tolkien, Scruton

This past month the world lost two great men, Christopher Tolkien and Roger Scruton. Christopher Tolkien gave us more of his father’s famous worlds of imagination as he prepared so much J.R.R. Tolkien material for publication. Scruton gave us strong arguments for the concept of objective beauty and cultural treasures in art, architecture and philosophy. Together they can be said to have given the world new insight into Truth, Beauty and Wonder. We are the poorer for their passing.
