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.

作者簡介

J.R.R. Tolkien (1892-1973) is the creator of Middle-earth and author of such classic and extraordinary works of fiction as The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, and The Silmarillion. His books have been translated into more than fifty languages and have sold many millions of copies worldwide.

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.

地圖都很清晰，要是精裝版就更好瞭！總體來說說是一本不錯的書！！近代以來西人貴族中曾經盛行過“壯遊”的傳統，這種著名的旅行被作為青年教育必不可少的部分而著名。但更根深蒂固的是西方文化傳統中的漫遊敘事，這一主題下可以找到許多文學名著，當然最著名也是最本原性的那一部毫無疑問是《奧德賽》。作為牛津大學教授的托爾金熟習西方古典，在他的著作中能夠察覺到諸多古典哲學與傳統神話的影子，就像伊露維塔創世與米爾寇墮落的故事中可以看齣《蒂邁歐篇》與《聖經》的痕跡那樣，比爾博與奧德修斯之間看上去雖然天差地遠，但依然有頗多相似之處。也正因如此，比爾博纔從根本上不同於現代習見的那種通過自身努力從小人物成長起來，能夠戰勝強敵甚至拯救世界的俗套英雄。

主要是中土世界地理情報，有愛的話可以入手ww 現在寫評論總覺得京東這樣改評論的規則不太科學，其實本身評論就不太科學，因為一般大傢都不會怎麼看看，500字以上是想提升評論的質量吧，想做成很高質量的基本上不可能因為畢竟不是社區啊，大傢買書之前入過要思考到底要不要入手，不是去豆瓣直接翻評論就是去討論區看的…倒是曬單應該嚴格的審一審…因為打開很多照片都不是商品的圖片，好浪費時間！！！真心這樣覺得… 所以如果堅持500字以上的話基本上大傢為瞭積分都會各自復製粘貼吧，那麼還有意思麼…本來好好的返利機製這樣之後真的各種（ry…
