Summary:
El Silmarillion completa el trasfondo que se encuentra detr�as de la obra m�as popular y brinda la historia anterior de la Tierra Media, presentando algunos de los personajes clave. El Silmarillion es el n�ucleo de J.R.R. La escritura imaginativa de Tolkien, una colecci�on de narraciones que van desde los D�ias Antiguos de la Tierra Media, pasando por la Segunda Edad y el ascenso de Sauron, hasta el final de la Guerra del Anillo. Est�an ambientados en una era en la que Morgoth, el primer Se�nor Oscuro, habitaba en la Tierra Media, y los Elfos le hicieron la guerra en su fortaleza impenetrable en Angband para recuperar los Silmarils, tres joyas que contienen la �ultima luz pura restante de Valinor. , agarrado por Morgoth y puesto en su corona de hierro. Acompa�nando a estos cuentos hay varias obras m�as breves. El Ainulindal�e es un mito de la Creaci�on y en el Valaquenta se describe la naturaleza y los poderes de los dioses. Akallab�eth relata la ca�ida del gran reino insular de N�umenor al final de la Segunda Edad y De los Anillos del Poder narra los grandes acontecimientos al final de la Tercera Edad, como se cuenta en El Se�nor de los Anillos. Tolkien no pudo publicar El Silmarillion mientras viv�ia, ya que creci�o con �el, por lo que dej�o que su hijo, Christopher, editara el trabajo de muchos manuscritos y llevara la gran visi�on de su padre a una forma publicable, completando as�i el logro literario de toda una vida. Esta edici�on especial presenta de nuevo este primer paso seminal hacia el trazado de la publicaci�on p�ostuma de la Tierra Media, y el comienzo de cuarenta a�nos ilustres y m�as de veinte libros que celebran el legado de su padre. Tambi�en se incluye una carta de J.R.R. Tolkien, escrito en 1951, que ofrece una exposici�on brillante de las Edades anteriores, y casi 50 pinturas a todo color de Ted Nasmith, incluidas algunas que aparecen aqu�i por primera vez.
The Silmarillion fills in the background which lies behind the more popular work, and gives the earlier history of Middle-earth, introducing some of the key characters. The Silmarillion is the core of J.R.R. Tolkien's imaginative writing, a collection of narratives ranging in time from the Elder Days of Middle-earth, through the Second Age and the rise of Sauron, to the end of the War of the Ring. They are set in an age when Morgoth, the first Dark Lord, dwelt in Middle-earth, and the Elves made war upon him in his impenetrable fortress in Angband for the recovery of the Silmarils, three jewels containing the last remaining pure light of Valinor, seized by Morgoth and set in his iron crown. Accompanying these tales are several shorter works. The Ainulindal�e is a myth of the Creation and in the Valaquenta the nature and powers of the gods is described. The Akallab�eth recounts the downfall of the great island kingdom of N�umenor 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 told 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, 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. Also included is a letter by J.R.R. Tolkien written in 1951 which provides a brilliant exposition of the earlier Ages, and almost 50 full-colour paintings by Ted Nasmith, including some which appear here for the first time.
