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.

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.

　　　　所以我们不奇怪为什么比尔博能够得享遐龄，在最后也踏上远去永生之地的船只。哪怕在一个危险的世界里，一个善人如果具有明智和审慎的品质，总会得到命运的青睐，这是《霍比特人》魅力长盛不衰之处，也是宅男比尔博旅程的终点。　霍比特人不是传说。霍比特人在人类考古学上有一席之位。而托尔金笔下的霍比特人显然丰满可爱的多。他们又矮又可爱，是一帮友爱、快乐的小男人。他们并不漂亮但脾气绝好，性格有些保守和胆怯，但他们打洞和做家务的本领超一流。当然，最让人难忘的还有他们那长满长毛的毛茸茸的大脚丫。这么一群世俗而又平常的人，是不是跟我们自己很像呢？！或者他们原本就是我们人类的影子。平凡、保守、胆怯，甚至还有这样或那样的缺点。然而，正是这样一个普通得像影子一样的霍比特人，经历了一次非比寻常的探险旅行。
