Essais de Philologie Moderne (1951) *1953 First Edition / First Printing* - Includes the essay/lecture Middle English “Losenger” by J.R.R. Tolkien From TolkienBooks.net: “Proceedings of a conference held in 1951. Tolkien attended and delivered a lecture in English, probably at the invitation of his friend S.R.T.O. d’Ardenne. All other contributions to this volume are in French.” From Wayne Hammond’s A Descriptive Bibliography: “For his lecture before the Congrés International de Philologie Moderne in September 1951 Tolkien examined the Middle English word losenger because ‘a fresh scrutiny of its etymology may afford a glimpse (if no more) into the complexities of the contacts of Germanic and Latin in Northern Gaul’… He is listed as a participant in the Congrés, first section p. 19, as ‘professeur à l’Université d’Oxford (Merton College), et représentant official de cette Université, Oxford (Grande-Bretagne)’” (Hammond, p. 302).
