The Hobbit Graphic Novel

Volume 1 of the most comprehensive in-depth companion to Tolkien's life and works ever published, including synopses of all his writings, and a Tolkien gazetteer and who's who.

 The J. R. R. Tolkien Companion and Guide is a comprehensive handbook to one of the most popular authors of the twentieth century.

 One of two volumes comprising this definitive work, the Chronology traces J. R. R. Tolkien's progress from his birth in South Africa in 1892, to the battlefields of France and the lecture-halls of Leeds and Oxford, to his success as the author of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, until his death in 1973.

 It is the most extensive biographical resource about Tolkien ever published. Thousands of details have been drawn from letters, contemporary documents in libraries and archives, and a wide variety of other published and unpublished sources. Assembled together, they form a revealing portrait of Tolkien in all his aspects: the distinguished scholar of Old and Middle English, the capable teacher and administrator, the devoted husband and father, the brilliant creator of Middle-earth.

The hobbit

Dix ans après les Contes Perdus, traduits par Adam Tolkien, le petit-fils de l'auteur, la parution des
Lais du Beleriand poursuit la série de L'Histoire de la Terre du Milieu qui permet au lecteur français
de suivre la naissance de l'univers de J.R.R. Tolkien. Ce troisième volume, réclamé depuis
longtemps par les lecteurs posait des problèmes de traduction très particuliers en raison du
caractère poétique des textes qu'il rassemble. L'association d'une traductrice spécialisée en poésie
et d'un traducteur spécialiste de Tolkien a permis de résoudre ces difficultés et de présenter un
texte exceptionnel.
L'Histoire de la Terre du Milieu parvient à un moment crucial de la création de la mythologie de
J.R.R Tolkien. Le lecteur découvre des poèmes essentiels, rapportant les histoires de Túrin et de
Lúthien, deux héros centraux du Silmarillion et des Contes Perdus. Le Lai des enfants de Húrin
raconte la vie tragique de Túrin Turambar ; le Lai de Leithian (présenté ici en édition bilingue)
décrit la quête du Silmaril par Beren et Lúthien et leur face à face avec Morgoth. Ce volume
comporte également un texte de C.S. Lewis sur le Lai de Leithian ainsi que des poèmes
fragmentaires (Fuite des Noldoli, Lai d'Eärendel et Lai de la Chute de Gondolin) auxquels Le
Silmarillion fait régulièrement allusion mais que les lecteurs francophones n'avaient jamais pu lire.
A l'instar des autres volumes, le commentaire et les explications de Christopher Tolkien encadrent
les textes de son père pour décrire l'évolution de l'Histoire des Jours Anciens, qui constituent le
décor du Seigneur des Anneaux.
