A Heroic-Fantasy fan needs your help! - J.R.R. Tolkien questionnaire
|
Can't Post
|
|
Hello everyone! Before I introduce my request, let me introduce myself! My name is Guillaume, I'm 20 years old and I come from France. I'm a big fan of Heroic Fantasy theme related works, as LOTR, The Hobbit, but also Game of Thrones, The Elder Scrolls series (a big fan of it) and so on... I study in France but I am registered in an English university (Coventry university) for a Bachelor year in marketing and communications. My dream? Being able to speak English as fluently as I speak in French, and continue my life abroad (Canada, maybe?). Plus, I would love to work in the leisure field (video games, toys and so on). Now, let me introduce my small request. I am actually preparing an university report about Tolkien, the success of his books and their influences, the social impact and the marketing universe around it (the derivative products, the movies, the toys, video games and so on). I have choosen this topic because I feel very attached to the Tolkien's universe and all the things that get inspired from it. I wish to collect information from people on the street, from small retailers of Tolkien's related products and... Tolkien's universe fans! I succesfully reach my first both objectives (street and retailers questionnaires), now I need your help to finalize my data collection. You will find below a link to a small online questionnaire of 10 questions concerning the social and marketing impact of Tolkien: don't worry, your answers will remain anonymous and will only be used by myself (you will find a small description of it at the beginning). https://fr.surveymonkey.com/s/5WSDQLN I am so sorry if I do a mistake or if this is not the right place to post my questionnaire, and also I am VERY sorry if you'll find mistakes into my work. Thanks a lot for your help, and I'm also very excited about what to discover on TOR.N forum!

Happiness: money matters, but less than we think and not in the way that we think. Family is important and so are friends, while envy is toxic -- and so is excessive thinking. Beaches are optional. Trust is not. Neither is gratitude. - The Geography of Bliss by Eric Weiner as summarized by Lily Fairbairn. And a bit of the Hobbit reading thrown in never hurts. - NottaSackville

I wish you luck in your research! It seems like it must be a very interesting topic to look into.

That's all the French I will try to use. It's been a long time since I studied it and I've forgotten a lot. Good luck with your English! It's very good already.

I've never played any of the video games, so I could not answer that question. Good luck!
