According to Christopher Tolkien, the writer's son, John Tolkien always had a weakness for "Norse" verse and repeatedly used accented verse, stylizing some of his works to resemble ancient Germanic poetry. Thus were born "Le of Hurin's Children," "The New Song of the Welsungs," "The New Song of Gudrun," and other experiments of this kind.
Based on the world-famous legend of Lancelot and Guinevere, the poem "The Doom of Arthur," begun in 1934, was left unfinished because of the development of the world of The Lord of the Rings. This book contains both the poem itself and an analysis of John Tolkien's sketches that reveal the author's intent, as well as an article on the relationship of this text to The Silmarillion.

An article on the relationship between the poem and the Silmarillion.
