Description: Linguistic Map of Middle-Earth, according to Tom Shippey, The Road to Middle-Earth, HarperCollins 2005, pp. 131-133. Shippey argues that Tolkien invented Middle-Earth partly as a solution to the linguistic tangle he had created with his adoption of words and names from various languages.
