I mentioned the Tolkien Reader because I happen to have it on my shelf, and I've never looked for "On Fairy Stories" elsewhere. I believe I have only read short excepts from it online. And perhaps it doesn't touch much on her paper topic anyway, except for indirectly as to Tolkien's thoughts on creating well-realized fictional races as part of the total of his subcreation.
"That is one thing that Men call 'hope.' Amdir we call it, 'looking up.' But there is another which is founded deeper. Estel we call it, that is 'trust.' It is not defeated by the ways of the world, for it does not come from experience, but from our nature and First Being. If we are indeed the Eruhin, the Children of the One, then He will not suffer Himself to be deprived of His own, not by any enemy, not even by ourselves. This is the last foundation of estel, which we keep even when we contemplate the End. Of all His designs the issue must be for His children's joy."

I'm a new person with a question but I'm not really sure where I should put it.

I'm waiting to hear back from my teacher on her definition of secondary sources....
