Krátky popis
For the first time ever, a very special edition of the forerunner
to The Lord of the Rings, illustrated throughout in colour by
J.R.R. Tolkien himself and with the complete text printed in two
colours. The Silmarilli were three perfect jewels, fashioned by
Feanor, most gifted of the Elves, and within them was imprisoned
the last Light of the Two Trees of Valinor.But the first Dark Lord,
Morgoth, stole the jewels and set them within his iron crown,
guarded in the impenetrable fortress of Angband in the north of
Middle-earth. The Silmarillion is the history of the rebellion of
Feanor and his kindred against the gods, their exile from Valinor
and return to Middle-earth, and their war, hopeless despite all the
heroism, against the great Enemy. It is the ancient drama to which
the characters in The Lord of the Rings look back, and in whose
events some of them such as Elrond and Galadriel took part.The book
also includes several shorter works: the Ainulindale, a myth of the
Creation, and the Valaquenta, in which the nature and powers of
each of the gods is described. The Akallabeth recounts the downfall
of the great island kingdom of Numenor at the end of the Second
Age, and Of the Rings of Power tells of the great events at the end
of the Third Age, as narrated in The Lord of the Rings. Tolkien
could not publish The Silmarillion in his lifetime, as it grew with
him, so he would leave it to his son, Christopher Tolkien, to edit
the work from many manuscripts and bring his father's great vision
to publishable form, so completing the literary achievement of a
lifetime.This special edition presents anew this seminal first step
towards mapping out the posthumous publishing of Middle-earth, and
the beginning of an illustrious forty years and more than twenty
books celebrating his father's legacy. This definitive new edition
includes, by way of an introduction, a letter written by Tolkien in
1951 which provides a brilliant exposition of the earlier Ages, and
for the first time in its history is presented with J.R.R.
Tolkien's own paintings and drawings, which reveal the breathtaking
grandeur and beauty of his vision of the First Age of Middle-earth.
