内容简介

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.

精彩书评

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.

　　一个霍比特人的一次探险经历，却穷尽了一个人一生所要遭遇和经历的各种情绪和磨难，有快乐有悲伤、有恐惧有窃喜、有希望有绝望、有占有有分享。那个置身探险中的霍比特人，已经不再是影子。他抛弃了家园，却拥有了一个完全不同的自我。随着阅读的深入，你会发现你情愿那个人就是你自己：拥有一枚神奇的隐形戒指；骑在大鹰的背上翱翔；用谜语和脑筋急转弯打败不知名的怪物；挥舞着短剑刺杀毒蜘蛛；把阿肯宝钻装进自己的口袋里……

　　　　比尔博一贯的表现几乎无可指责之处，甚至在独身一人面对恶龙斯毛格时也表现出惊人的勇气——并非不知畏惧，而是坚定地朝向自己所畏惧之物，这是亚里士多德所称道过的勇气，是来自古典时代的英雄气概。这种勇气也留给了他的侄子弗罗多，在那场更广为人知的伟大历险中，弗罗多也毅然踏上了通往魔多的道路。

地图都很清晰，要是精装版就更好了！总体来说说是一本不错的书！！近代以来西人贵族中曾经盛行过“壮游”的传统，这种著名的旅行被作为青年教育必不可少的部分而著名。但更根深蒂固的是西方文化传统中的漫游叙事，这一主题下可以找到许多文学名著，当然最著名也是最本原性的那一部毫无疑问是《奥德赛》。作为牛津大学教授的托尔金熟习西方古典，在他的著作中能够察觉到诸多古典哲学与传统神话的影子，就像伊露维塔创世与米尔寇堕落的故事中可以看出《蒂迈欧篇》与《圣经》的痕迹那样，比尔博与奥德修斯之间看上去虽然天差地远，但依然有颇多相似之处。也正因如此，比尔博才从根本上不同于现代习见的那种通过自身努力从小人物成长起来，能够战胜强敌甚至拯救世界的俗套英雄。

　　　　更值得注意的是，比尔博的旅途直接连接了《魔戒》和《霍比特人》，在一场看上去充满滑稽又生死一线的赌局中，他从咕噜手中赢得了后者的“宝贝”——看过《魔戒》的人都知道这是什么。这场赌局中比尔博表现得不乏机智，不过还是要说运气在此起到了极大作用。这是托尔金著作中古典思想的另一体现，那些在无意中转折历史的人是命运的使者，天命在不知不觉中降临在他们身上，而最终将以此战胜恶而朝向善。
