Ellinikós Sýllogos Philon Tólkin

2014-10-23T17:47:56Z

PeterNY:

[[Image:PP banner.jpg|thumb|Banner and logo of the GTS; the [[tengwar]] inscription reads "Mellonath Tolchin Ellennin"]]
'''Ellinikós Sýllogos Philon Tólkin''' (Greek: '''Ελληνικός Σύλλογος Φίλων Τόλκιν''', ''Greek Society of Tolkien Friends''), also known as the '''Greek Tolkien Society''' and '''The Prancing Pony''', is a [[Tolkien Societies|Tolkien Society]] based in Greece.

It started as a semi-official website intended to promote [[The Lord of the Rings (film series)|''The Lord of the Rings'' (film series)]] for the Greek audience by hosting a forum; eventually it evolved into a full-functioning society in [[October]] [[2002]].

The society was unofficially divided into two "smials", one in Athens and one in Thessaloniki (and all northern Greece).

Some of the activities of the GTS have been the issues of the ''[[News from Bree]]'' fanzine, as well as co-operating for the subtitlization of ''[[The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King]]'' in Greek theaters. Also, the Society participates in the [[International Tolkien Fellowship]] and its members are often present in Tolkien events over Europe.

In October [[2007]], the GTS hosted the first overboard Tolkien gathering on Greek ground on the island of [[Wikipedia:Andros|Andros]] with [[Marcel Bülles]] chairman of the [[German Tolkien Society]] and [[Caspar Reiff]] of ''[[Tolkien Ensemble]]'' as special guests. The happening was conveniently named "Cair Andros".

'''The Fellowship''' was a web-based Tolkien community, with real life meetings, centred around [[Peter Jackson]]'s [[The Lord of the Rings (film series)|''The Lord of the Rings'' films]].

==History==
The Fellowship commenced prior to the release of the films in 2002.<ref>http://web.archive.org/web/20020118153204/http://www.fellowship.nl/ (accessed 06-12-2011)</ref> Fellowship, and especially its forum, was very active through 2006.

North East Tolkien Society

2014-10-17T12:25:29Z

PeterNY:

The '''North East Tolkien Society''', formerly known as the New York Tolkien Society, and also known as Heren Istarion, was the largest American [[Smials|Smial]] of [[The Tolkien Society]].

The main force behind Heren Istarion were co-chairs [[Anthony Burdge]] and his wife Jessica Burke. It is defunct since 2009 due to hardship encountered by the co-chairs due to the recession. The last activity of Heren Istarion website as at March 2012 was March 2011. The Heren Istarion Facebook page also no longer exists. <ref>http://web.archive.org/web/20090520062052/http://herenistarion.org/(accessed 06-12-2011)</ref><ref>http://www.green-and-growing.com/2011/09/open-letter-to-occupywallstreet.html(accessed 06-12-2011)</ref> Consequently it's website<ref>http://web.archive.org/web/20051105035454/http://www.herenistarion.org/(accessed 06-12-2011)</ref> was downgraded to a blog<ref>http://herenistarionnets.blogspot.com(accessed 06-12-2011)</ref> as well as a Facebook page.<ref>http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=43894627954(accessed 06-12-2011)</ref>

As at 2012 Anthony Burdge launched a blog covering fantasy and science fiction in general with some J.R.R. Tolkien related content. <ref>https://plus.google.com/103396983951064584135/posts(accessed 09-10-2012)</ref> In 2013 Anthony Burdge and Jessica Burke founded Myth Ink Books: a fantasy publisher.<ref>http://mythinkbooks.com/about/</ref>

==History==
The smial was located on Staten Island, New York. Heren Istarion published its own calendars in 2008,<ref>http://www.tolkiencalendars.com/2008_2009.html(accessed 06-12-2011)</ref> 2009,<ref>http://www.tolkiencalendars.com/2008_2009.html(accessed 06-12-2011)</ref> 2010<ref>http://www.tolkiencalendars.com/2010.html(accessed 06-12-2011)</ref> and 2011.<ref>http://www.tolkiencalendars.com/2011.html(accessed 06-12-2011)</ref> No 2012 calendar was printed and sold.

Aside from Heren Istarion New York City has a Meetup.com group: NYC Area Friends of J.R.R. Tolkien & Fantasy, that appears to be active as it meets monthly.

==Magazine==
Heren Istarion also published a magazine through 2008, ''[[Parma Nölé]]''.<ref>https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&pid=explorer&chrome=true&srcid=0B0_BEwnkL2WrOWZkNDJlY2UtOTA2MC00ZDg2LTllNGItZjFhNzZmMmIxMDg2&authkey=CLTb17kO&hl=en_US(accessed 06-12-2011)</ref> No issues were released in 2009, 2010 or 2011.
