The definitive edition of this beloved children's classic, featuring a wealth of accompanying illustrations and notes which take the reader further into both the story, and the tale of how it was written. Seldom has any book been so widely read and loved as J.R.R. Tolkien's classic tale, The Hobbit. Since its first publication in 1937 it has remained in print to delight each new generation of readers all over the world, and its hero, Bilbo Baggins, has taken his place among the ranks of the immortals: Alice, Pooh, Toad...As with all classics, repeated readings continue to bring new detail and perspectives to the reader's mind, and Tolkien's Middle-earth is a vast mine of treasures and knowledge, its roots delving deep into folklore, mythology and language. The Hobbit is, therefore, an ideal book for annotation: as well as offering a marvellous and entrancing story, it introduces the reader to the richly imagined world of Middle-earth, a world more fully and complexly realised in The Lord of the Rings and The Silmarillion. Douglas Anderson's annotations make fascinating reading. Additionally, many of Tolkien's own illustrations embellish the text, and numerous illustrations from foreign editions exhibit an extraordinary range of visual interpretation. In an appendix there are details of the revisions made by Tolkien at various times to the publsihed text, which provide an uncommon and privileged glimpse into the special concerns of an exceptional and painstaking writer.
Douglas Anderson is one of the foremost scholars of Tolkien's work, and was involved in the resetting of The Lord of the Rings for the centenary edition illustrated by Alan Lee.

评分撰文/ 王晓晶 巩晓莉 张铎 口碑不及《魔戒》三部曲,却在全球公映后登顶票房冠军,在奇幻电影持续发酵十多年并早已长成好莱坞摇钱树的今天,技术狂人彼得·杰克逊重返中土世界的新作《霍比特人1:意外之旅》(以下简称《霍比特人》)有这样的表现实属必然。虽然电影的母体...
评分 评分与比尔博.巴金斯擦肩而过,掐指算竟逾十年,跟着觉得自己也老朽,比不得他一百三十又一年长寿,晚岁更一袍一帽马上游,携仙侣,痛痛快快当世外仙翁,十年在他,小零头罢。以十年衡量实际生活里遭怠慢的人际,多半意味着冷却淡忘,老死不予往来。恐怕只得书影罗织的童言世界,才...
评分霍比特人不是传说。霍比特人在人类考古学上有一席之位。而托尔金笔下的霍比特人显然丰满可爱的多。他们又矮又可爱,是一帮友爱、快乐的小男人。他们并不漂亮但脾气绝好,性格有些保守和胆怯,但他们打洞和做家务的本领超一流。当然,最让人难忘的还有他们那长满长毛的毛茸茸的...
