Legendarium é un termo empregado nos estudos literarios sobre a obra de J. R. R. Tolkien en referencia tanto aos seus escritos acerca do mundo da Terra Media como á historia e as lendas contidas nesa obra de ficción.

Orixe do termo

Un legendarium é unha compilación de lendas. En principio, este escuro substantivo latino adoitaba utilizarse para describir os textos que detallaban lendas das vidas de santos. Un exemplo que chegou ata os nosos días é o Legendarium de Anjou, que data do século XIV.^[1]

Uso do termo por parte de Tolkien

Tolkien usou o termo legendarium para se referir á súa obra en varias das súas cartas:

Sobre O Silmarillion: "Este legendarium remata cunha visión da fin do mundo, a súa destrución e recomposición, e a restauración dos Silmarilli e a 'luz antes do sol' ...." (Carta a Milton Waldman, describindo O Silmarillion e O Señor dos Aneis, escrita c.1951)^[2]
"... my legendarium, especially the 'Downfall of Númenor' which lies immediately behind The Lord of the Rings, is based on my view: that Men are essentially mortal and must not try to become 'immortal' in the flesh." (Letter written in 1954)^[3]
"Actually in the imagination of this story we are now living on a physically round Earth. But the whole 'legendarium' contains a transition from a flat world ... to a globe ...." (Letter written in 1954)^[4]
"But the beginning of the legendarium, of which the Trilogy is part (the conclusion), was an attempt to reorganise some of the Kalevala ...." (Letter written in 1955)^[5]

Later use of the term

The term's use in Tolkien scholarship ranges from the title of a book on the subject (Tolkien's Legendarium), to Christopher Tolkien's introduction to The History of Middle-earth series, where he talks about the "primary 'legendarium'", to the following description in the J. R. R. Tolkien Encyclopedia: "The History of Middle-earth is a longitudinal study of the development and elaboration of Tolkien's legendarium through his transcribed manuscripts, with textual commentary by the editor, Christopher Tolkien."^[6]
