內容簡介
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.

精彩書評
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.

更值得注意的是,比爾博的旅途直接連接瞭《魔戒》和《霍比特人》,在一場看上去充滿滑稽又生死一綫的賭局中,他從咕嚕手中贏得瞭後者的“寶貝”——看過《魔戒》的人都知道這是什麼。這場賭局中比爾博錶現得不乏機智,不過還是要說運氣在此起到瞭極大作用。這是托爾金著作中古典思想的另一體現,那些在無意中轉摺曆史的人是命運的使者,天命在不知不覺中降臨在他們身上,而最終將以此戰勝惡而朝嚮善。

據說小說已經改編成同名電影瞭。說實話,我有點擔心。因為相比魔幻、懸疑的概念,我更願意把這本書定義於童話。童話的基調是快樂的,而且童話的寓意是希望。這本《霍比特人》原本是托爾金寫給孩子的爐邊故事,所以它應該是童話。而現代電影偏偏是利用瞭高科技的手法來追求魔幻和懸疑的視覺感受。這不是不好,隻是感覺它不應該屬於《霍比特人》。J.K.羅琳坦言自己的《哈利.波特》寫到最後依然不能超越托爾金,我想最重要的一個原因就是《哈利.波特》是魔幻小說而不是童話。
