Morgoth's Ring: The Later Silmarillion, Part One : The Legends of Aman (History of Middle-earth) ハードカバー – 1993/12/14
英語版
J.R.R. Tolkien
(著),
Christopher Tolkien
(編集)
In Morgoth's Ring, the tenth volume of The History of Middle-earth and the first of two companion volumes, Christopher Tolkien describes and documents the legends of the Elder Days, as they were evolved and transformed by his father in the years before he completed The Lord of the Rings. The text of the Annals of Aman, the "Blessed Land" in the far West, is given in full. And in writings never before published, we can see the nature of the problems that J.R.R. Tolkien explored in his later years as new and radical ideas, portending upheaval in the heart of the mythology. At this time Tokien sought to redefine the old legends, and wrote of the nature and destiny of Elves, the idea of Elvish rebirth, the origins of the Orcs, and the Fall of Men. His meditation of mortality and immortality as represented in the lives of Men and Elves led to another major writing at this time, the "Debate of Finrod and Andreth," which is reproduced here in full. "Above all," Christopher Tolkien writes in his foreward, "the power and significance of Melkor-Morgoth...was enlarged to become the ground and source of the corruption of Arda." This book indeed is all about Morgoth. Incomparably greater than the power of Sauron, concentrated in the One Ring, Morgoth's power (Tolkien wrote) was dispersed into the very matter of Arda: "The whole of Middle-earth was Morgoth's Ring."

Delightful

A delightful read for those wishing for an ever deeper understanding of Tolkien's early works with notations and commentary by both the author and his son. The intricate and complex world created by Tolkien becomes even more profound after reading 'Laws and Customs among of the Eldar' when the author explains such things as the rites concerning betrothal and marriage, naming traditions, and death. The 'Athrabeth Finrod ah Andreth', in my opinion, is the jewel of this volume. During the 'Debate' the reader learns that there was love between a human and an elf long before the Tale of Beren and Luthien. However, the story of Aegnor and Andreth seems to me a tragedy as the two were never able to act on their love as it was wartime and the elves did not - by both custom and nature - marry or have children. This volume is definitely worth it for anyone who desires either an informative text or another well-written story.

I don't want to have a limit on how many words I have to write in a review, that is one of the reasons I don't take the time to do these on amazon.com. I have a lot to write and I don't feel like writing lengthy reviews on each of them. there for don't expect me to write anything about your co.

This is a best read for the dialogue between Finrod and Andreth

This is a best read for the dialogue between Finrod and Andreth, which -- unlike many of the other posthumously published works of JRRT -- was complete and considered canonical by the author.
