Anyway, the latest Tolkien Studies has a 'reaction' of sorts to Flieger's essay: 'Strange and Free' On Some Aspects of the Nature of Elves and Men Thomas Fornet-Ponse (Tolkien Studies VII).

I just finished reading this essay, and now must disagree with V. Flieger just a bit more than before
Thanks, Galin, for this--it's certainly something I'd like to read. I wish I could afford the $70 plus international shipping and tax for each volume of TS. I guess I'll just have to check it out of the local uni library.
