SUMMARY:Profs & Pints Annapolis: Tolkien's Fight Against Futurism
DESCRIPTION:January 13\, 2026 | 5:00 PM to 7:30 PM\nGraduate by Hilton Annapolis\n126 West Street\nAnnapolis\, MD 21401 \nProfs and Pints Annapolis presents: “Tolkien’s Fight Against Futurism\,” a look at a beloved fantasy author as fundamentally engaged in a battle to preserve beauty\, with Graham McAleer\, professor of philosophy at Loyola University Maryland and teacher of a course on the morals and politics of Lord of the Rings. \nAs a young man in the early 20th century J.R.R. Tolkien watched an avant-garde art form known as Futurism become all the rage. Shaped by industrialization and by admiration for new machinery\, Futurism celebrated speed\, acceleration\, and the whirl of technical innovation\, earning it another name\, Vorticism\, in Tolkien’s England. \nAlthough remembered mainly as a writer\, Tolkien also was an accomplished pen-and-ink artist who kept abreast of the art movements of his time. He developed a distaste for Futurism and what it signified that only grew stronger as he experienced the horrors of modern warfare as a soldier at the 1916 Battle of the Somme. He regarded what Futurism celebrated as “the Machine\,” representing fascist politics and apocalyptic war\, and his opposition to it deeply influenced not just his art but his written works. \nGain insights into how Tolkien’s sensibilities as a visual artist shaped his worldview and writing with Graham McAleer\, a scholar of philosophy who has closely studied Tolkien’s work. \nRegistration\nOnline Tickets: $13.50\nIn Person Tickets: $17\, or $15 w/ student ID \n\nGet Tickets!
