Krátky popis
Brand new deluxe edition of this definitive companion to The
Hobbit, quarter-bound, stamped in gold foil with a unique design
inspired by J.R.R. Tolkien's own artwork, featuring a ribbon marker
and exclusive foldout poster, and housed in a matching custom-built
slipcase. The Hobbit was first published on 21 September 1937.Like
its sequel, The Lord of the Rings, it is a story that 'grew in the
telling', and many characters and plot threads in the published
text are quite different from the story J.R.R. Tolkien first wrote
to read aloud to his young sons as one of their 'fireside reads'.
Together in one volume, The History of the Hobbit presents the
complete text of the unpublished manuscript of The Hobbit,
accompanied by John Rateliff's lively and informative account of
how the book came to be written and published.Recording the
numerous changes made to the story both before and after
publication, he examines - chapter by chapter - why those changes
were made and how they reflect Tolkien's ever-growing concept of
Middle-earth. As well as reproducing the original version of one of
the world's most popular novels - both on its own merits and as the
foundation for The Lord of the Rings - this book includes many
little-known illustrations and draft maps for The Hobbit by Tolkien
himself. Also featured are extensive commentaries on the dates of
composition, how Tolkien's professional and early mythological
writings influenced the story, the imaginary geography he created,
and how Tolkien came to revise the book years after publication to
accommodate events in The Lord of the Rings.Endorsed by Christopher
Tolkien as a companion to his essential 12-volume The History of
Middle-earth, this thoughtful and exhaustive examination of one of
the most treasured stories in English literature offers fascinating
new insights for those who have grown up with this enchanting tale,
and will delight any who are about to enter Bilbo's round door for
the first time.
