A few questions about Middle Earth (knights, titles and names) - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I have decided to go with "Aethelwulf Éothain". Now that i have my name ready, I can finally begin writing his biography. Somehow I just need to know the name to know what he will be like... know the feel of it. :-)

I have a couple of questions about the Eorlingas now if you don't mind.

- Do most of the people of Rohan know how to read and write, or only the "wisest" of them?

- How much does the average man of Rohan know about the lore of Middle-Earth? Does he know about the Valar? The three elven rings? The Nazgul? The Balrog? The Shire even?

That's all, thanks.
