Dimitra Fimi, a new Tolkien scholar who teaches at UWIC in Cardiff, will also be giving lectures and leading the Post Graduate symposium at RotR.
Her recent book on fairies and hobbits won the Mythopoetic Scholarship Award for Inklings studies in 2010. She's definitely someone to watch. And also is very readable, both for academics and general readers.
