Detalhes do produto
- For the first time ever, a beautiful slipcased edition of the forerunner to The Lord of the Rings, illustrated throughout in colour by J.R.R. Tolkien himself, with the complete text printed in two colours and with many bonus features unique to this edition.The Silmarilli were three perfect jewels, fashioned by Fëanor, 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 Fëanor 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 Ainulindalë, a myth of the Creation, and the Valaquenta, in which the nature and powers of each of the gods is described. The Akallabêth recounts the downfall of the great island kingdom of Númenor 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.This deluxe slipcased edition contains the complete text, which is printed in two colours and features, for the very first time, more than 50 colour paintings, illustrations and designs drawn by J.R.R. Tolkien himself as he composed this epic work.Unique to this edition are two poster-size, fold-out maps revealing all the detail of Beleriand as the tales grew, an illustrated booklet featuring ‘A Brief Account of The Silmarillion and its Making’ by Christopher Tolkien, and a printed art card reproducing ‘Taniquetil’.It is additionally quarterbound in blue leather, with raised ribs on the spine, stamped in three foils on black cloth boards, and housed in a custom-built clothbound slipcase. The pages are edged in silver and include a ribbon marker.

Perguntas e Respostas dos Clientes

pergunta:
What is The Silmarillion about?
Resposta: The Silmarillion is a collection of mythopoeic stories by J.R.R. Tolkien that serves as a background to his more well-known works, such as The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. It explores the creation of Middle-earth, the origins of its peoples, and their tumultuous histories. The tales delve into themes of good versus evil, heroism, and the impact of power, making it a compelling read for anyone interested in high fantasy and lore. -
pergunta:
Who are the main characters in The Silmarillion?
Resposta: The Silmarillion features a range of characters, including powerful influencers like Eru Ilúvatar, the supreme deity, and the Valar, divine beings who shape the world. Key figures such as Fëanor, who forged the Silmarils, and Beren and Lúthien, whose love story echoes throughout the ages, drive many plot lines. Each character enhances the rich tapestry of narrative, making the book a deep exploration of lineage and fate. -
pergunta:
Is The Silmarillion suitable for children?
Resposta: While The Silmarillion is often enjoyed by younger audiences, it is generally more appropriate for teenagers and adults due to its complex themes and language.

How does The Silmarillion connect with The Lord of the Rings?
Resposta: The Silmarillion provides a rich historical context for The Lord of the Rings by detailing the ancient events leading to the rise of Sauron and the One Ring.

Readers who delve into The Silmarillion will find deeper connections and motivations that enrich the experience of Tolkien’s later tales. -

It serves as the mythological foundation of Middle-earth, making it an intriguing read whether you start there or build upon your knowledge of Tolkien's other novels. -

What are the major themes in The Silmarillion?
Resposta: The Silmarillion explores significant themes such as the struggle between good and evil, the nature of power, and the importance of destiny in shaping lives.

How long is The Silmarillion?
Resposta: The Silmarillion is approximately 365 pages long, depending on the edition.

Games Editorial Review
The Silmarillion Illustrated Deluxe Edition Hardcover is a must-read for fans of Lord of the Rings looking for insight and background into the series. The book itself has amazing artwork and high-quality book material, making it a standout volume in any library. However, it should only be read as a reference text and not as a standalone novel, as it weaves tales back and forth across history. Readers should beware that it is not written in the same style nor has the creative magic of The Hobbit or the Lord of the Rings trilogy. The writing style is more like a history book and can be very dry, making it hard to stay focused on. Understanding the Lord of the Rings requires reading The Silmarillion, as it provides the whole creation account and the history of the first and second age.
