** Revising The Voyage of Earendil

[Antoine]

It looks like our next project will be the revising of "The Voyage of Earendil"

Not so easy project ...

First we need to built the last version of the last chapter of The Silmarillion that Tolkien wrote.
Unfortunately we don't have this version but Christopher Tolkien explained all the changes from the QN text and after all the changes from the QS text ... etc ... to have the Later Quenta Silmarillion version.

On this document protected against coping but readable and printable freely you will find all the evolution of the texts.

Our working text will be in 2 parts.

From QS :

Yet by Sirion and the sea there grew up an elven folk
[...]
and they came into the Shadowy Seas and passed their shadows.

Plus from LQ :

And they looked upon the Lonely Isle and there they tarried not
[...]
and he alone returned and brought tidings of Cortirion to the Hither Lands.

Now I proposed some changes mostly based on our work in the rejected part of Fall of Gondolin.

Antoine
