One of the things we’ve noticed working on HoMe Base is that Christopher Tolkien uses “noticed” where we would expect “noted”. He often describes “noticing” something but he doesn’t mean perceiving it but actually noting it elsewhere in the books.

A long post from something I am working on for my next book, which will treat the Great Tales and (what I think of as) the Great Themes, Death/Immortality, Fate/Free Will, Divine Justice/Problem of Evil in the years before Tolkien began The Lord of the Rings.
