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.
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.

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...
评分之前在贴吧和论坛里都看过了各种版本关于两人友情的故事,大致是这样的:托尔金在年轻时代认识了刘易斯,大约是1926年5月份。是一次英语系教授聚会上。两人认识后没多久就迅速打得火热,成为了好朋友。托尔金甚至把自己写的关于露西恩和贝伦的故事拿给刘易斯看,刘易斯写下了很...
