The Silmarillion
A number-one New York Times bestseller when it was originally published, The Silmarillion is the core of J.R.R. Tolkien's imaginative writing, a work whose origins stretch back to a time long before The Hobbit. Tolkien considered The Silmarillion his most important work, and, though it was published last and posthumously, this great collection of tales and legends clearly sets the stage for all his other writing. The story of the creation of the world and of the First Age, this is the ancient drama to which the characters in The Lord of the Rings look back and in whose events some of them, such as Elrond and Galadriel, took part. The three Silmarils were jewels created by Feanor, most gifted of the Elves. Within them was imprisoned the Light of the Two Trees of Valinor before the Trees themselves were destroyed by Morgoth, the first Dark Lord. Thereafter, the unsullied Light of Valinor lived on only in the Silmarils, but they were seized by Morgoth and set in his crown, which was guarded in the impenetrable fortress of Angband in the north of Middle-earth. The Silmarillion is the history of the rebellion of Feanor and his kindred against the gods, their exile from Valinor and return to Middle-earth, and their war, hopeless despite all their heroism, against the great Enemy. This second edition features a letter written by J.R.R. Tolkien describing his intentions for the book, which serves as a brilliant exposition of his conception of the carlier Ages of Middle-earth. This is the story of the First Age, the ancient drama to which characters in "The Lord of the Rings" look back. -
精灵宝钻
本书在它的作者去世四年之后出版。这部书描绘了上古时期,或者说“第一纪”时的情景。魔戒叙述的是第三纪末期发生的重大事件,《精灵宝钻》的故事则可以追溯到久远的过去那时候,莫高斯——第一个“黑暗之王”住在中洲,精灵为了夺回稀世之宝,向他发动了战争……这本书的书名是《精灵宝钻》。可是除了《精灵宝钻》,还有另外四个短篇。放在本书最前面的《圣贤之乐》和《梵拉的传说》与《精灵宝钻》的关系很密切,可是后面的两篇《努美诺尔覆灭》和《魔戒和第三纪》与《精灵宝钻》并无关系,可以独立成章。这是按照家父明确的意愿收入的。这样一来,我们就有了一部从伊路瓦塔通过“圣贤之乐”开天辟地、创造世界起到“第三纪”末期的完整的历史……
