Firstly, the metatext entirely supports the world of the text, seen from inside the frame where the author is imagined as a translator. Secondly, the
Appendices are clearly narrated by an editor, a literary figure who is compiling the whole book from ancient documents. Since, Turner comments, the editor treats the metatext material as real, creating a "wider text-world" than the text itself does. Turner notes that Tolkien stated that this was absolutely necessary: the secondary world has to be presented as

Tolkien spent so much effort on these antiquarian-style elements. Some of the materials suggest that Tolkien was just the editor of real materials that had come into his hands. This applies, for example, to artworks like the
