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 that he could not publish in his lifetime because it grew with him. Its origins stretch back to a time long before THE HOBBIT. But THE HOBBIT was caught up in what Tolkien called "the branching acquisitive theme" he began in THE SILMARILLION, and eventually THE LORD OF THE RINGS emerged from this as well. 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 works. This is the story of the creation of the world and the happenings of the First Age, 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, the 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. The book includes several other, shorter works in addition to THE SILMARILLION. Preceding it are "The Ainulindale," a myth of the Creation, and "The Valaquenta," in which the nature and power of the gods is set forth. After THE SILMARILLION comes "The Akallabeth," a tale of the downfall of the kingdom of Numeno, and finally "Of the Rings of Power," the connecting link to THE LORD OF THE RINGS. This second edition features a number of minor textual corrections along with a letter written by J.R.R. Tolkien describing his intentions for the work, written more than twenty-five years before its eventual publication. As described by Christopher Tolkien in the preface, it serves as a brilliant exposition of his conception of the earlier Ages of Middle-earth.

在忙论文的时候看完这本书,总是看了一段后红肿着眼下楼买饭,满脑子精灵和艾代英,是楼管阿姨眼中的怪咖。始终认为,能触动读者内心最柔软部分的书,就是可爱的,书因感人而可爱。 打算忙完这段后马上看第二遍,即那本据说封面很蛋疼但翻译更优质的邓版。看李尧这个版本...
评分在被LOTR系列彻底洗脑之后我找来这本中洲历史第一卷的《精灵宝钻》来看。说实话整个阅读过程不很顺利,因为书的内容太过丰富,人物众多且关系混乱,单是绕人物名字就把我绕的几度想摔书罢读。但是阅读这本书的过程也绝对是一种享受,绝对的享受。读完这本书后,我找回了当初初...
评分我很想一个星都不给的……英文版是我迄今为止最爱的书,没想到落到译林手里竟然翻译地面目全非,荒谬绝伦,说它错误处数百也不为过!Tolkien老先生在天有灵不知会不会痛心疾首
评分本文写于《精灵宝钻》英文版诞生之时。 《精灵宝钻》在作者过世四年后的今天,终于得以出版。它讲述的是有关远古时代的故事,那段时期亦可称为世界的第一纪元。《魔戒》叙述的是第三纪元末那些轰轰烈烈的事迹,《精灵宝钻》中的传奇故事则是源自久远得多的过去,彼时首代黑暗...
评分魔戒及第三纪元的故事在本书内仅有22页,这大概也是在整个世界观设定里,托尔金对魔戒这个故事的态度。彼时,曾经的传说尘埃落定,首生子女的命运与中州寡有牵连。世界于他们而言,黯淡而且衰老,发生的一切,也不过是上古时期那些惊天动地的史诗的寥寥余音。“援助来自弱者之...
