J.R.R. 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》被美国亚马逊网络书店票选为“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。

我越来越觉得,读托尔金的神话系列有点像读《圣经》。《精灵宝钻》开篇就给出了整个故事的设定和起源:世界源于伊露维塔的大乐章。就像《创世纪》以“起初,神创造天地”开始一样。《创世纪》的前三章不但迅速交代了创世、天使和人的堕落,还提到了神的救赎计划。换言之,往后...
评分如果你对去而复返的旅行感兴趣,有意走出舒适的西方世界、跨入荒野再返家,那么你会想看看我们这位平凡的英雄,他带着几分聪慧,些许胆量,以及足够的好运。本书记录的就是这样一段旅程,这样一位旅人。它发生在仙灵时代和人类时代之间。那时著名的黑森林依然耸立,群山间...
评分前段时间看了号称史上最另类的旅行纪录片《An Idiot Abroad》(《傻冒在国外》),主人公是长着一张囧脸的Karl,他是个典型的英国普通市民,而且他看起来不喜欢去挑战未知,他被送到了世界各地,可是他并不享受这些惊喜,他只想在家里躺着玩他的ipad。他愁眉苦脸的坐在骆驼上抱怨...

评分奥巴马、丹麦女王、匈牙利总统、詹姆斯•卡梅隆、乔治•马丁,还有尼古拉斯•凯奇、出演《变形金刚》的梅根•福克斯…… 乔治•马丁那句“妈呀,乖乖,我绝望了,我怎么努力也达不到他的成就啊!”真是笑岔了^&^ 【奥巴马】 “当我像你们这么大的时候,我应该已经...

Film tie-in edition of the best-selling classic work of fantasy of Bilbo Baggins' adventures in Middle-earth, featuring the complete story told in both films, with a striking cover image from Peter Jackson's THE HOBBIT: AN UNEXPECTED JOURNEY and drawings and maps by J.R.R. Tolkien. Bilbo Baggins is a hobbit who enjoys a comfortable, unambitious life, rarely travelling further than the pantry of his hobbit-hole in Bag End. But his contentment is disturbed when the wizard, Gandalf, and a company of thirteen dwarves arrive on his doorstep one day to whisk him away on an unexpected journey 'there and back again'. They have a plot to raid the treasure hoard of Smaug the Magnificent, a large and very dangerous dragon...The prelude to The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit has sold many millions of copies since its publication in 1937, establishing itself as one of the most beloved and influential books of the twentieth century.
There and back again.
评分A growing up adventure of a hobbit. Bilbo is just the kind of protagonist that is needed in an adventure: unwilling and complaining at first and changed and honoured in the end. The dwarves are most cute but too obssessed with gold, silver and jewels. Thorin is a great leader. Can't believe Smaug is killed like that!
评分好看得根本停不下来~//电影看的是场面,书则能无限体味作者的精巧构思。//最喜欢的情节是Gandalf带矮人去skin changer家中那一段,Gandalf的智慧令人佩服。//指环王三部曲,一本书一部电影;The Hobbit最薄,一本书拍三部电影……==
