Opis i karakteristike
The Lays of Beleriand gives us a privileged insight into the creation of the mythology of Middleearth through the alliterative verse tales of two of the most crucial stories in Tolkien’s world – those of Túrin and of Beren and Lúthien. Accompanying the poems are commentaries on the evolution of the history of the Elder Days, together with the notable criticism of The Lay of Leithian by C.S. Lewis, who read the poem in 1929.
In The Shaping of Middleearth the chronological and geographical structure of the legends of Middleearth and Valinor is spread before us. We are introduced to the hitherto unknown Ambarkanta or ‘Shape of the World’, the only account ever given of the nature of the imagined Universe, accompanied by maps and diagrams of the world before and after the cataclysms of the War of the Gods and the Downfall of Númenor. Also included are the original ‘Silmarillion’ of 1926, and the Quenta Noldorinwa of 1930 – the only version of the myths and legends of the First Age that J.R.R. Tolkien completed to their end.
The Lost Road completes the examination of Tolkien’s writing completes the examination of Tolkien's writing before he began The Lord of the Rings, presenting later forms of the annals of Valinor and Beleriand, the legend of the downfall of Númenor, and the abandoned ‘timetravel’ story The Lost Road, linking the world of Númenor and Middleearth with the legends of many other times and peoples.
Published together for the first time, these three books comprise a fascinating period of Christopher Tolkien’s fortyyear career devoted to presenting his father J.R.R. Tolkien’s writings on Middleearth, itself a unique accomplishment that celebrates the greatest invented world in all of fantasy literature.
