內容簡介

The definitive edition of this beloved children's classic, featuring a wealth of accompanying illustrations and notes which take the reader further into both the story, and the tale of how it was written. Seldom has any book been so widely read and loved as J.R.R. Tolkien's classic tale, The Hobbit. Since its first publication in 1937 it has remained in print to delight each new generation of readers all over the world, and its hero, Bilbo Baggins, has taken his place among the ranks of the immortals: Alice, Pooh, Toad...As with all classics, repeated readings continue to bring new detail and perspectives to the reader's mind, and Tolkien's Middle-earth is a vast mine of treasures and knowledge, its roots delving deep into folklore, mythology and language. The Hobbit is, therefore, an ideal book for annotation: as well as offering a marvellous and entrancing story, it introduces the reader to the richly imagined world of Middle-earth, a world more fully and complexly realised in The Lord of the Rings and The Silmarillion. Douglas Anderson's annotations make fascinating reading. Additionally, many of Tolkien's own illustrations embellish the text, and numerous illustrations from foreign editions exhibit an extraordinary range of visual interpretation. In an appendix there are details of the revisions made by Tolkien at various times to the publsihed text, which provide an uncommon and privileged glimpse into the special concerns of an exceptional and painstaking writer.

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.

　　約翰·羅納德·瑞爾·托爾金（J.R.R. Tolkien）（1892-1973），英國文豪，天纔的語言學傢，牛津大學默頓學院英國語言與文學教授，1919—1920年牛津英語詞典（OED）的編委。他以瑰麗的想像和精深的語言，建立瞭一個英語世界的全新神話體係。托爾金的雄心壯誌不在於寫作一個傳奇故事，或一部史詩。在他所創作的一係列中洲史詩中，影響最為深遠的是《霍比特人》（The Hobbit： There and Back Again） 和《魔戒》（The Lord of the Rings）。這兩部巨作被譽為當代奇幻作品的鼻祖，至今已暢銷2.5億餘冊，被翻譯成60餘種語言。美國每年銷售的大約一億本平裝書中，就有四分之一可以追溯到托爾金的作品。《魔戒》被票選為“兩韆年以來最重要的書”。由托爾金小說改編的電影《指環王》、《霍比特人》掀起21世紀奇幻文藝的全麵復興，世界拜倒在他腳下。

精彩書評

"In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a hobbit-hole, and that means comfort." The hobbit-hole in question belongs to one Bilbo Baggins, an upstanding member of a "little people, about half our height, and smaller than the bearded dwarves." He is, like most of his kind, well off, well fed, and best pleased when sitting by his own fire with a pipe, a glass of good beer, and a meal to look forward to. Certainly this particular hobbit is the last person one would expect to see set off on a hazardous journey; indeed, when Gandalf the Grey stops by one morning, "looking for someone to share in an adventure," Baggins fervently wishes the wizard elsewhere. No such luck, however; soon 13 fortune-seeking dwarves have arrived on the hobbit's doorstep in search of a burglar, and before he can even grab his hat or an umbrella, Bilbo Baggins is swept out his door and into a dangerous adventure. The dwarves' goal is to return to their ancestral home in the Lonely Mountains and reclaim a stolen fortune from the dragon Smaug. Along the way, they and their reluctant companion meet giant spiders, hostile elves, ravening wolves--and, most perilous of all, a subterranean creature named Gollum from whom Bilbo wins a magical ring in a riddling contest. It is from this life-or-death game in the dark that J.R.R. Tolkien's masterwork, The Lord of the Rings, would eventually spring. Though The Hobbit is lighter in tone than the trilogy that follows, it has, like Bilbo Baggins himself, unexpected iron at its core. Don't be fooled by its fairy-tale demeanor; this is very much a story for adults, though older children will enjoy it, too. By the time Bilbo returns to his comfortable hobbit-hole, he is a different person altogether, well primed for the bigger adventures to come--and so is the reader.

‘One of the best loved characters in English fiction… a marvellous fantasy adventure.’

這本是精裝，還不錯，隻是字體還是小，在我看來，如果眼睛好就無所謂哈。當然瞭，貌似原版書的字體都是這麼大，沒辦法。

沒有刷版的癖好，那麼要收藏，這一本大約是最理想的。不必贅言印刷精美、紙質優良，隻為詳實的內容，也是一定要入的。正文之前，有關於托老生平及創作霍比特人過程的長文。文中注釋詳細，偏重學術溯源，考據癖棄療者的福音。此外插圖也頗豐富，收錄瞭一些過往不同版本的《霍比特人》的圖畫，以及托老手繪（不過圖片相對較小，若是喜歡插畫，還是建議入手The Art of the Hobbit）。正文之後，還有附有《孤山任務》一文，似乎是較《未完成的傳說》中所收更完善的版本。

托爾金認為語言及與之關聯的神話傳說是不可分割的，因此他終究對國際輔助語言持悲觀的態度：他在1930年一場演講“秘密的罪行”中對一群世界語的使用者說：‘你們的語言將産生一部神話’，然而在1956年他卻下一個結論：‘沃拉普剋語、世界語、伊多語及諾維亞語等等，諸如此類，均是枯萎死亡的語言，遠比現已不被使用的遠古語言死的還要透，因為他們的創作者從未創作任何世界語的傳奇故事。’

評分☆☆☆☆☆

私底下，托爾金被任何有關種族及語言學意含的事物吸引，並且思考著一種與生俱來的語言品味，一種他在1955年“英語與威爾士語”這場演講中所提到的“母語”（native language），相對於自幼時所學的語言（cradle language）。他認為西密德蘭的中古英語是他所擁有的“母語”，就如同他在1955年給大詩人奧登的書信中所提到：‘在血緣上，我是一位西密德蘭人（並且早先在我第一眼看到西密德蘭的中古英語時，我就已經視他為已知的語言）。’

書還是很不錯的，可惜收到時書角有明顯的壓痕，精裝書如果不能保證外觀的完美，實在是購書人的一大遺憾。

300—50的活動買瞭3本，包裝很好哦，是牛皮紙包裝的不是原來的塑料袋，三本書都各有塑封，贊！好開心，不過雖然如此，還是有一本的封底看得齣來是髒兮兮的，為什麼會這樣呢？另：不明白為什麼京東要那麼多的評價字數，好多評價根本是為瞭湊字數瞎抄一通，好討厭！

阿爾達的語言 托爾金的學術生涯和他的文學創作兩者和他所鍾愛的語言和哲學是不可分割的。他在大學時代專攻古希臘哲學，並自1918年開始投入牛津英語辭典的編寫工作，其中被認為曾研究W為首字的一些詞匯，包括walrus“海象”此字的字源—一個他曾頭痛許久的詞匯。1920年，托爾金赴利茲擔任英語高級講師，並聲稱是因為他而使得語言學學生的數量由5位增加至20位。他曾教授古英語英雄詩體、英語曆史、許多古英語及中古英語文本、古英語及中古英語哲學、日耳曼哲學介紹、哥德語、古冰島語及中古威爾士語。1925年托爾金33歲那年，他成功申請到盎格魯撒剋遜的Rawlinson及Bosworth教授職缺，並以其在利茲的日耳曼哲學的學生曾組成一個“維京俱樂部”（VikingClub）為傲—在俱樂部裏，大學生可以自由地閱讀古斯堪的納維亞的冒險故事及喝啤酒。
