	Sigelwara Land - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Sigelwara Land is the title of an essay in two parts by J.
		He does not speculate why, but instead demonstrates a clear relationship between "sigelwara" and "sigelhearwa" and shows how discovering the original meaning of the word "Sigelhearwa" is almost impossible; that trying to do so must be "for the joy of the hunt rather than the hope of a final kill".
		He finishes on a distinctly more tentative note, postulating that the original never referred to human beings but to a mythical demon, and that its later form is used, incorrectly and in a pejorative sense, to represent Ethiopians.

	The Problem of Transformation: The Use of Medieval Sources in Fantasy Literature By Michael D.C. Drout, Literature ...
		For example, the entire scene in which Gandalf, Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli enter into the Golden Hall seems to be derived from the meetings of Beowulf and the Geatas with the coast guard and Wulfgar.
		This is engagement with a specific scholarly dispute, and is similar to his solution for the interpretation of “sigelhearwan” (which Tolkien re-creates as his fiery balrog) wherein he solves a linguistic mystery in Anglo-Saxon by inventing a creature to fit the word.
		In the case of the sigelwara, it is clear from published work that Tolkien really did think that fire-monsters of some sort were the tradition behind the word.

	Tolkien Biography
		Tolkien creates Valinor [Land of the Gods in the Silmarillion] "This, he decided, was the language by the fairies or elves whom Earendel saw during his strange voyage.
		He began work on a 'Lay of Earendel' that described the mariner's journeying across the world before his ship became a star.
		The Lay was to be divided into several poems, and the first of these, 'The shores of Faery', tells of the mysterious land of Valinor, where Two Trees grow, one bearing golden sun-apples and the other silver moon-apples." [Carpenter 76]

	D.J. Smitherman: Review of Revised Editions of Tolkien Scholarship
		Her broad claim is that Tolkien's most significant impetus in writing of The Silmarillion was philological.
		Likening his writing of The Silmarillion to that of his article "Sigelwara Land," she suggests that "the reward for such a painstaking and (it must be admitted) obscure piece of research is the penetration into a lost attitude of mind, the participation of his own imaginative faculty with that of a people long gone….
		It is a voyage to recover meaning and from that meaning to recapture the imagination and perception of those for whom the word was current" (Light 8).
