The existence of the poem was known publicly since the Tolkien biography by Humphrey Carpenter, published in 1977. The poem had been abandoned for nearly 20 years in 1955, and the publication was complete of The Lord of the Rings when Tolkien expressed his wish to return to his "long poem" and complete it. Its composition thus dates to shortly after his The Lay of Aotrou and Itroun (1930), a poem of 508 lines modelled on the Breton lay genre. He abandoned it at some point after 1934, most likely in 1937 when he was occupied with preparing The Hobbit for publication. Tolkien wrote the poem during the earlier part of the 1930s, when he was Rawlinson and Bosworth Professor of Anglo-Saxon at Pembroke College, Oxford. The poem begins with a British "counter-invasion" to the Saxon lands ( Arthur eastward in arms purposed). At the same time, it avoids the high medieval aspects of the Arthurian cycle, such as the Grail and the courtly setting. The historical setting of the poem is early medieval, both in form (using Germanic verse) and in content, showing Arthur as a Migration period British military leader fighting the Saxon invasion. The poem is alliterative, extending to nearly 1,000 verses imitating the Old English Beowulf metre in Modern English, and inspired by high medieval Arthurian fiction. A posthumous first edition of the poem was published by HarperCollins in May 2013. ![]() Tolkien that is concerned with the legend of King Arthur. The Fall of Arthur is an unfinished poem by J.
