17. DTG Tolkien Seminar

This year our Tolkien Seminar will take place from 29th - 31st October at the University of Marbug. The topic is "Tolkien and Politics". Due to the current situation, the seminar will take place for the first time in hybrid form with the possibility to participate on site and online. If you would like to attend on site, please register here.

The presentations will be grouped into panels this year. Here, two or three contributions that fit together are combined into one block. After the last presentation, the discussion round will start. We will use Zoom Webinar for this. 

If you participate in the webinar, you will not see a video of yourself, nor will you be able to use your microphone. This is intentional. The only people who can share a video, speak into a microphone or show their presentation on screen are the organisers, presenters, stewards and some special guests.

If you have questions about the ongoing presentation, please use the Q&A function of the webinar. For exchanges with the other viewers, there is the chat. Both chat and Q&A can be found at the bottom of the computer screen. 

To bring people together and to fill the breaks online, we are planning zoom rooms. Here you can switch on video and microphone and talk to each other. 

All detailed information and tips will be sent to you on Friday morning.
