Not all fantasy is from Tolkien : Talking about a different fantasy tradition with Steven Erikson

Описание к видео Not all fantasy is from Tolkien : Talking about a different fantasy tradition with Steven Erikson

When we discuss the genre of fantasy and the fantasy tradition it is incredibly common to locate fantasy, particuarly epic fantasy, as the direct descendant of JRR Tolkien's Lord of the Rings and his Legendarium.
But there are other fantasy traditions (and I am on record arguing for RPGs and Dungeons and Dragons in particular) to be considered.
Less controversially, Robert E Howard's Conan and King Kull stories, his Hyborian Age stories in general, are a significant thread in the make up of the genre... and this was how the conversation started... it then wanders all over the genre.
