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。
精彩书评
‘One of the best loved characters in English fiction… a marvellous fantasy adventure.’
--Daily Mail‘Finely written saga of dwarves and elves, fearsome goblins and trolls… an exciting epic of travel, magical adventure, working up to a devastating climax.’
--The Observer 精彩书摘
From the Back Cover"Smaug certainly looked fast asleep, when Bilbo peeped once more from the entrance. He was just about to step out on to the floor when he caught a sudden thin and piercing ray of red from under the drooping lid of Smaug's left eye. He was only pretending to sleep! He was watching the tunnel entrance…"
Whisked away from his comfortable, unambitious life in his hobbit-hole in Bag end by Gandalf the wizard and a company of dwarves, Bilbo Baggins finds himself caught up in a plot to raid the treasure hoard of Smaug the Magnificent, a large and very dangerous dragon. Although quite reluctant to take part in this quest, Bilbo surprises even himself by his resourcefulness and his skill as a burglar!
Written for J.R.R. Tolkein's own children, 'The Hobbit' met with instant critical acclaim when published in 1937. It has continued to be recognised as a classic, and won the Keith Baker Millennium Book Award, presented in 2000 by the Youth Libraries Group, School Library Association and Library Association Schools Library Group, for the most significant children's book published between 1920 and 1939.
"The English-speaking world is divided into those who have read 'The Hobbit' and 'The Lord of the Rings' and those who are going to read them."

那种发自纯粹的兴趣、菜鸟级的自然认知、非专业科普、非专业画家、非专业作家的作品,此前多见于博客写作交流,不多见于正式出版物。是什么原因促成了这种书的出版呢?仓廪实。一个国家的经济发展到一定水平,一个家庭有了一点钱,一个人有了一点闲,不用奔命般地谋生了,才可以放慢脚步,东张西望地看看风景。穷的时候,有些东西是无从讲究的。素质的背后是经济的支撑。

《霍比特人》(The Hobbit),又被翻译为《哈比人历险记》,是J.R.R托尔金为其儿子写的一部童话故事,《霍比特人》电影海报出版于1937年,是《指环王》(又译“魔戒”)系列故事的前传,霍比特人就是这些故事中的一个种族,主要特征为个头矮小,行动敏捷而轻柔,不穿鞋子,脚上长有天然的肉垫儿,喜欢食物和悠闲自在的生活。托尔金构建的中洲(又译“中土世界”)中有着精灵、矮人、人族、巫师等不同的种族分化,霍比特人比矮人的个头还矮,生活自在,亲近自然,与世无争。2012年年末,《指环王》系列导演彼得·杰克逊在时隔数年之后,将众所期待的前传《霍比特人》三部曲之《霍比特人:意外之旅》搬上了银屏,再次续写了《指环王》史诗巨制的磅礴与瑰丽。
