Bilbo’s Journey: Discovering the Hidden Meaning of The Hobbit
In Bilbo’s Journey, go beyond the dragons, dwarves, and elves, and discover the surprisingly deep meaning of J. R. R. Tolkien’s classic novel The Hobbit. Bilbo’s quest to find and slay the dragon Smaug is a riveting tale of daring and heroism, but as renowned Tolkien scholar Joseph Pearce shows, it is not simply Bilbo’s journey, it is our journey too. It is the Christian journey of self-sacrifice out of love for others, and abandonment to providence and grace.
Professor Joseph Pearce is the internationally acclaimed author of many books, which include bestsellers such as The Quest for Shakespeare, Tolkien: Man and Myth, The Unmasking of Oscar Wilde, C. S. Lewis and The Catholic Church, Literary Converts, and Wisdom and Innocence: A Life of G. K. Chesterton.

The liberal arts are the universal linguistic and mathematical skills students need to excel in every area of life. The Great Books are the means by which we pass on the cultural heritage of the Christian West. A mastery of both is the best way to prepare a child for a life of wisdom and virtue. Memoria Press’ beautiful and comprehensive classical Christian curriculum best provides the tools for mastering these two essential elements of education.
