内容简介
To celebrate the 30th anniversary of first publication, a new de luxe edition of The Silmarillion, featuring the revised, reset text, a colour frontispiece illustration, bound in special materials and presented in a matching slipcase. The Silmarillion is an account of the Elder Days, of the First Age of Tolkien's world. It 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 tales of The Silmarillion are set in an age when Morgoth, the first Dark Lord, dwelt in Middle-Earth, and the High Elves made war upon him for the recovery of the Silmarils, the jewels containing the pure light of Valinor. Included in the book are several shorter works. The Ainulindale is a myth of the Creation and in the Valaquenta the nature and powers of each of the gods is described. The Akallabeth recounts the downfall of the great island kingdom of Numenor at the end of the Second Age and Of the Rings of Power tells of the great events at the end of the Third Age, as narrated in The Lord of the Rings.For the first time, we are publishing a deluxe edition of this pivotal work, featuring the revised, corrected text and including, by way of an introduction, a fascinating letter written by Tolkien in 1951 in which he gives a full explanation of how he conceived the early Ages of Middle-earth. Quarter-bound, and set in a matching slipcase, this attractive edition will prove a fine addition to any Tolkien collection.
作者简介
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.
约翰·罗纳德·瑞尔·托尔金(J.R.R. Tolkien)(1892-1973),英国文豪,天才的语言学家,牛津大学默顿学院英国语言与文学教授,1919—1920年牛津英语词典(OED)的编委。他以瑰丽的想像和精深的语言,建立了一个英语世界的全新神话体系。托尔金的雄心壮志不在于写作一个传奇故事,或一部史诗。在他所创作的一系列中洲史诗中,影响最为深远的是《霍比特人》(The Hobbit: There and Back Again) 和《魔戒》(The Lord of the Rings)。这两部巨作被誉为当代奇幻作品的鼻祖,至今已畅销2.5亿余册,被翻译成60余种语言。美国每年销售的大约一亿本平装书中,就有四分之一可以追溯到托尔金的作品。《魔戒》被票选为“两千年以来最重要的书”。由托尔金小说改编的电影《指环王》、《霍比特人》掀起21世纪奇幻文艺的全面复兴,世界拜倒在他脚下。

方平先生主编、主译的这个版本是头一个用诗体翻译的莎士比亚全集译本。莎士比亚戏剧的原貌是诗剧,是以素诗体(blank verse)为基本形式的诗剧,以诗体译诗体,尽量使译文在语气、语言节奏感上更接近莎剧原貌,是这个版本的最终诉求。还有并非无关紧要的是,这个译本是全新、最晚出的,方平先生又终生研究莎士比亚,生前是中国莎士比亚协会会长,国际莎士比亚协会执行理事。这个译本因此溶入了全新的莎学研究成果,每部剧作和诗歌作品之前均有“前言”——分析作品的艺术特色、人物形象和思想主题等,对这部作品做出恰如其分的综合评价;之后又附有简明扼要的“考证”——对此部作品

花大价钱买这种精装书,本来就是用来收藏的,收到货我就震惊了,这是什么包装,一点保护措施都没有,直接套个京东的塑料袋就完事了,结果可想而知,造成外套书壳坑坑洼洼,极不美观,很失望。还是要找专门卖进口书的公司,那包装才是真正良心。
