內容簡介

Karen Wynn Fonstad's THE ATLAS OF MIDDLE-EARTH is an essential volume that will enchant all Tolkien fans. Here is the definitive guide to the geography of Middle-earth, from its founding in the Elder Days through the Third Age, including the journeys of Bilbo, Frodo, and the Fellowship of the Ring. Authentic and updated—nearly one third of the maps are new, and the text is fully revised—the atlas illuminates the enchanted world created in THE SILMARILLION, THE HOBBIT, and THE LORD OF THE RINGS. Hundreds of two-color maps and diagrams survey the journeys of the principal characters day by day—including all the battles and key locations of the First, Second, and Third Ages. Plans and descriptions of castles, buildings, and distinctive landforms are given, along with thematic maps describing the climate, vegetation, languages, and population distribution of Middle-earth throughout its history. An extensive appendix and an index help readers correlate the maps with Tolkien's novels. This atlas is the most complete and authoritative guide to Tolkien's world containing seperate two color maps and exlplanatory text relating to Tolkien's works.

作者簡介

J.R.R. Tolkien (1892-1973) is the creator of Middle-earth and author of such classic and extraordinary works of fiction as The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, and The Silmarillion. His books have been translated into more than fifty languages and have sold many millions of copies worldwide.

精彩書評

The publishing world is full of Tolkien spinoff products, some trivial and ephemeral--but some, like this thoroughly researched atlas, are genuinely classy. Karen Wynn Fonstad is a qualified geographer and cartographer who first mapped Middle-Earth in 1981 and has since added much new detail based on those endless volumes of drafts, abandoned passages, alternative versions, and laundry lists published since Tolkien's death. She fills in gaps and details in the familiar Third Age maps from The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, goes back in time to map Middle-Earth's First and Second Ages, and reconstructs the route and timescale of every important journey in the stories. There are local maps of key places like the Mines of Moria, Lothlorien, Isengard, Minas Tirth, the Tower of Cirith Ungol, and the volcanic Mount Doom. War maps cover the saga's notable battles, up to the hopeless last stand at Mordor gate and the tiny later skirmish known in Shire records as the Battle of Bywater. Thematic maps show Middle-Earth's distribution of climate, geological features, vegetation, people, and (most importantly to Tolkien) languages.... It's all done tremendously seriously and would make a fine gift for enthusiastic Tolkien fans, except that they'll have bought it already. --David Langford, Amazon.co.uk --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

阿爾達的語言 托爾金的學術生涯和他的文學創作兩者和他所鍾愛的語言和哲學是不可分割的。他在大學時代專攻古希臘哲學，並自1918年開始投入牛津英語辭典的編寫工作，其中被認為曾研究W為首字的一些詞匯，包括walrus“海象”此字的字源—一個他曾頭痛許久的詞匯。1920年，托爾金赴利茲擔任英語高級講師，並聲稱是因為他而使得語言學學生的數量由5位增加至20位。他曾教授古英語英雄詩體、英語曆史、許多古英語及中古英語文本、古英語及中古英語哲學、日耳曼哲學介紹、哥德語、古冰島語及中古威爾士語。1925年托爾金33歲那年，他成功申請到盎格魯撒剋遜的Rawlinson及Bosworth教授職缺，並以其在利茲的日耳曼哲學的學生曾組成一個“維京俱樂部”（VikingClub）為傲—在俱樂部裏，大學生可以自由地閱讀古斯堪的納維亞的冒險故事及喝啤酒。私底下，托爾金被任何有關種族及語言學意含的事物吸引，並且思考著一種與生俱來的語言品味，一種他在1955年“英語與威爾士語”這場演講中所提到的“母語”（native language），相對於自幼時所學的語言（cradle language）。他認為西密德蘭的中古英語是他所擁有的“母語”，就如同他在1955年給大詩人奧登的書信中所提到：‘在血緣上，我是一位西密德蘭人（並且早先在我第一眼看到西密德蘭的中古英語時，我就已經視他為已知的語言）。’

主要是中土世界地理情報，有愛的話可以入手ww 現在寫評論總覺得京東這樣改評論的規則不太科學，其實本身評論就不太科學，因為一般大傢都不會怎麼看看，500字以上是想提升評論的質量吧，想做成很高質量的基本上不可能因為畢竟不是社區啊，大傢買書之前入過要思考到底要不要入手，不是去豆瓣直接翻評論就是去討論區看的…倒是曬單應該嚴格的審一審…因為打開很多照片都不是商品的圖片，好浪費時間！！！真心這樣覺得… 所以如果堅持500字以上的話基本上大傢為瞭積分都會各自復製粘貼吧，那麼還有意思麼…本來好好的返利機製這樣之後真的各種（ry…

　　　　所以我們不奇怪為什麼比爾博能夠得享遐齡，在最後也踏上遠去永生之地的船隻。哪怕在一個危險的世界裏，一個善人如果具有明智和審慎的品質，總會得到命運的青睞，這是《霍比特人》魅力長盛不衰之處，也是宅男比爾博旅程的終點。　霍比特人不是傳說。霍比特人在人類考古學上有一席之位。而托爾金筆下的霍比特人顯然豐滿可愛的多。他們又矮又可愛，是一幫友愛、快樂的小男人。他們並不漂亮但脾氣絕好，性格有些保守和膽怯，但他們打洞和做傢務的本領超一流。當然，最讓人難忘的還有他們那長滿長毛的毛茸茸的大腳丫。這麼一群世俗而又平常的人，是不是跟我們自己很像呢？！或者他們原本就是我們人類的影子。平凡、保守、膽怯，甚至還有這樣或那樣的缺點。然而，正是這樣一個普通得像影子一樣的霍比特人，經曆瞭一次非比尋常的探險旅行。
