About the Author

A writer of fantasies, Tolkien, a professor of language and literature at Oxford University, was always intrigued by early English and the imaginative use of language. In his greatest story, the trilogy The Lord of the Rings (1954--56), Tolkien invented a language with vocabulary, grammar, syntax, mostrar mais even poetry of its own. Though readers have created various possible allegorical interpretations, Tolkien has said: "It is not about anything but itself. (Certainly it has no allegorical intentions, general, particular or topical, moral, religious or political.)" In The Adventures of Tom Bombadil (1962), Tolkien tells the story of the "master of wood, water, and hill," a jolly teller of tales and singer of songs, one of the multitude of characters in his romance, saga, epic, or fairy tales about his country of the Hobbits. Tolkien was also a formidable medieval scholar, as evidenced by his work, Beowulf: The Monster and the Critics (1936) and his edition of Anciene Wisse: English Text of the Anciene Riwle. Among his works published posthumously, are The Legend of Sigurd and Gudrún and The Fall of Arthur, which was edited by his son, Christopher. In 2013, his title, TheHobbit (Movie Tie-In) made The New York Times Best Seller List. (Bowker Author Biography) mostrar menos

Pequena biografia
John Ronald Reuel Tolkien (3 January 1892 – 2 September 1973) was an English writer, poet, philologist, and academic. He was the author of the high fantasy works The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings.

He served as the Rawlinson and Bosworth Professor of Anglo-Saxon and Fellow of Pembroke College, Oxford, from 1925 to 1945 and Merton Professor of English Language and Literature and Fellow of Merton College, Oxford, from 1945 to 1959. He was at one time a close friend of C. S. Lewis—they were both members of the informal literary discussion group known as the Inklings. Tolkien was appointed a Commander of the Order of the British Empire by Queen Elizabeth II on 28 March 1972.

After Tolkien's death, his son Christopher published a series of works based on his father's extensive notes and unpublished manuscripts, including The Silmarillion. These, together with The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, form a connected body of tales, poems, fictional histories, invented languages, and literary essays about a fantasy world called Arda and Middle-earth[b] within it. Between 1951 and 1955, Tolkien applied the term legendarium to the larger part of these writings.

While many other authors had published works of fantasy before Tolkien, the great success of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings led directly to a popular resurgence of the genre. This has caused Tolkien to be popularly identified as the "father" of modern fantasy literature or, more precisely, of high fantasy. In 2008, The Times ranked him sixth on a list of "The 50 greatest British writers since 1945". Forbes ranked him the fifth top-earning "dead celebrity" in 2009.

Resenhas

"O Hobbit" é um romance de fantasia que serve como introdução ao mundo da Terra-média e antecede os eventos de "O Senhor dos Anéis". O enrnedo acompanha a saga do pacato e caseiro Bilbo Bolseiro, do povo hobbit , que é convocado pelo mago Gandalf e um grupo de anões para ajudá-los a recuperar o tesouro roubado pelo temível dragão Smaug. Repleta de aventura e humor, a narrativa, envolvendo temas como coragem, amizade e a luta contra o mal, tornou-se um clássico atemporal da literatura de fantasia.… (mais)

O Senhor dos Anéis é alta fantasia, escrita entre 1937 e 1949, uma continuação de O Hobbit (1937). Embora Tolkien tenha planejado realizá-la em volume único, a obra foi originalmente publicada em três volumes (The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers e The Return of the King) entre 1954 e 1955. Desde então, a obra foi traduzida para mais de 40 línguas, vendendo mais de 160 milhões de cópias, tornando-se um dos trabalhos mais populares da literatura do século XX O Anel é o elemento central da saga. Nele, em inscrições no alfabeto Tengwar, pode-se ler: "Um Anel que a todos rege, Um Anel para achá-los, Um Anel que a todos trás, para na escuridão atá-los". Na saga, os vilões se autodestroem pelo próprio porte do anel. A história ocorre num tempo e espaço imaginários, a Terceira Era da Terra Média, que é um mundo inspirado na Terra real, mais especificamente, segundo Tolkien, numa Europa mitológica, habitado por Humanos e por outras raças: Elfos, Anões, Hobbits e Orcs.

Aventura e fantasia na mais pura forma. Na maior parte uma história evidentemente voltada pra crianças, com todas as conveniências de uma, mas tiveram partes que ela foge disso, tipo quando se tratava de goblins e wargs... Mas talvez fosse pra enfatizar o quão ruins eles eram?

As estórias são excelentes, Tolkien sabia o que estava fazendo, há muitas batalhas e muitas mortes, e apesar disso inspira a coragem em nossos corações. A compaixão dos Valar, a traição de Melkor, a fuga dos noldor, o surgimento dos homens e dos anões, todas essas estórias mexem com a nossa imaginação e o nosso emocional. De todas as estórias do livro a que mais me tocou foi a de Túrin Turambar.
