Paperback. Condition: Very Good. The final part of Tolkien's epic masterpiece, The Lord of the Rings, featuring an exclusive cover image from the film Impossible to describe in a few words, JRR Tolkien's great work of imaginative fiction has been labelled both a heroic romance and a classic fantasy fiction. By turns comic and homely, epic and diabolic, the narrative moves through countless changes of scene and character in an imaginary world which is totally convincing in its detail. Tolkien created a vast new mythology in an invented world which has proved timeless in its appeal. To celebrate the release of the major motion picture trilogy, we will be reissuing the A-format paperbacks with exclusive images from the films on the covers, the third of which being The Return of the King, in which the forces of Gondor and Rohan must make a last desperate stand against the monstrous armies of the Dark Lord, Sauron. And while good and evil engage in mighty battle, the fate of Middle-earth rests in the hands of two weary hobbits. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

Hardcover. Condition: gut. Auflage: 1 (2003). Der Herr der Ringe - Die Romanvorlage zum Film Die gebundenen Ausgaben mit einem von John Howe illustrierten Schutzumschlag Limitierte Sonderausgabe im Schuber Band 1 Die Gefährten Band 2 Die zwei Türme Band 3 Die Wiederkehr des Königs Band 4 Anhänge und Register Aus dem Engl. von Wolfgang Krege, 4 Bde., geb. im Schmuckschuber, 3 ausklappb. Faltkarten John R. R. Tolkien, geb. am 3. Januar 1892 in Südafrika, in England aufgewachsen, früh verwaist, hat mit seiner Romantrilogie 'Der Herr der Ringe' das Genre 'Fantasy' überhaupt erst geschaffen. Er zeigte sich schon als Kind fasziniert von alten, längst vergessenen Sprachen und Mythen. In Oxford spezialisierte sich der Stipendiat, der seit Kindertagen in seiner Freizeit zum bloßen Zeitvertreib Alphabete kreierte und neue Sprachen komponierte wie andere Menschen Musikstücke, bald aufs Altenglische und beschäftigte sich vor allem mit mittelalterlichen Dialekten der westlichen Midlands. W.A. Craigie, ein Kenner besonders der schottischen Volksüberlieferungen, führte ihn in die isländischen und finnischen Sprachen und Mythologien ein. Das Finnische wie das Walisische wurden später Grundlage für die Elfensprache im Herrn der Ringe. 1924, gerade 32 Jahre alt, wurde Tolkien als Professor für englische Sprachen nach Oxford berufen und blieb mehr als vierzig Jahre. Mit Frau und Kindern lebte er in einem schmucklosen Reihenhaus am Rande der Stadt. Tolkien ist 1973 gestorben, sein Fantasy-Land 'Mittelerde' ist, obwohl literarisch inzwischen vielfach abgekupfert, der beliebteste literarische Abenteuerspielplatz für Kinder und Erwachsene geblieben. Wolfgang Krege, geboren und aufgewachsen in Berlin. Philosophiestudium an der Freien Universität Anfang der 60er Jahre. Lexikonredakteur, Werbetexter, Verlagslektor. Seit 1970 Übersetzer ("Silmarillion ", "Hobbit", Anthony Burgess, Annie Proulx, Amelie Nothomb und viele andere), erste Lektüre des "Herrn der Ringe" 1970, Neuübersetzung des "Herrn der Ringe" 2000. Der Herr der Ringe OT The Lord of the Rings (The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, The Return of the King)OA 1954, 1954, 1955 , als Sammeltitel 1978DE Die Gefährten,1969, Die zwei Türme, 1970, Die Rückkehr des Königs, 1970, als Sammeltitel 1978Form Romantrilogie Epoche Moderne Mit seiner Romantrilogie Der Herr der Ringe begründete J. R. R. Tolkien die Gattung Fantasy-Literatur mit, da es ihm gelang, ein in sich geschlossenes fiktives Weltbild überzeugend darzustellen. Das spannend erzählte Werk verkaufte sich allein in Deutschland fünf Millionen Mal, weltweit wurden 50 Millionen Exemplare der Trilogie verkauft. Entstehung: Nach dem Verkaufserfolg des Romans Der Kleine Hobbit (1937), zunächst eine Erzählung für seine Kinder ohne Absicht der Veröffentlichung, drängte der Verlag Allen & Unwin Tolkien zu einer Fortsetzung der Abenteuer in der mythischen Welt Mittelerde. Insgesamt zwölf Jahre arbeitete Tolkien in seiner Freizeit an dem Manuskript, weitere fünf Jahre vergingen wegen notwendiger Überarbeitungen am Manuskript bis zum Erscheinen 1954 bzw. 1955. Inhalt: Im dritten Zeitalter spielt die Geschichte um die Vorherrschaft in Mittelerde und den Kampf um den Besitz eines mächtigen Rings und seiner Vernichtung. In grauer Vorzeit vom finsteren Herrscher Sauron geschmiedet, verleiht er dem Träger große Macht. Der wieder erstarkte Sauron braucht den Ring, um ganz Mittelerde unterwerfen zu können. Lange Zeit verschollen, ist der Ring im Auenland wiederaufgetaucht. Bilbo Beutlin gibt ihn dort an seinen Neffen Frodo weiter. Beide sind Hobbits, menschenähnliche Wesen, jedoch kleiner als Zwerge. Der Ringträger Frodo wird vom Rat der Bewohner Mittelerdes dazu ausersehen, den Ring ins Land des Feindes, Mordor, zu bringen, um ihn dort zu vernichten. Begleitet wird er von acht Gefährten mit Vertretern der Völker Mittelerdes. Die Ringgemeinschaft wird jedoch vom Feind getrennt; jeder beteiligt sich nun auf seine Art am Kampf gegen die Heerscharen Saurons. Letztlich siegreich sind die Völker Mittelerdes erst, als es Frodo mit seinem Freund Sam schließlich gelingt, den Ring im Berg des Feuers zu vernichten: Saurons Macht ist damit gebrochen und das dritte Zeitalter beendet. Der König der Menschen tritt letztendlich seine rechtmäßíge Herrschaft an; die Hobbits kehren ins Auenland zurück, die unsterblichen Elben verlassen den Kontinent Mittelerde und segeln zu den Ewigen Landen im Westen begleitet von Bilbo und Frodo. Aufbau: Das 1000-seitige Werk umfasst drei Teile: Die Gefährten, Die zwei Türme und Die Rückkehr des Königs, von denen jeder wiederum aus zwei Büchern mit zahlreichen Episoden besteht. Der Prolog enthält neben der Vorgeschichte eine Einführung zum Volk der Hobbits, ein umfangreicher Anhang und ein Register geben historische Überblicke, informieren über Schriften und Sprachen Mittelerdes sowie über Tiere, Orte und Personen. Wirkung: In den 1960er Jahren zum Bestseller avanciert, gab das groß angelegte Werk der Fantasy-Literatur entscheidende Impulse: Es beeinflusste zahlreiche Autoren wie Michael R Ende in seiner Unendlichen Geschichte (1979), Marion Zimmer Bradley (193099) mit dem Roman Die Nebel von Avalon (1982) und schließlich in jüngster Zeit die britische Autorin Joanne K. R Rowling mit der Serie um den Zauberlehrling Harry Potter ( Teil 1: 1997), mit der das Genre eine Renaissance erlebte. Ebenso griff US-Filmproduzent und Regisseur George Lucas in seinem Sciencefiction-Epos Star Wars (1977) auf den Roman zurück. Wegen seiner vermeintlichen Trivialität umstritten war Der Herr der Ringe jedoch in Teilen der Literaturkritik. Zweimal wurde der Stoff verfilmt: 1978 vom Zeichentrickfilmer Ralph Bakshi, 2001 feierte der erste Teil der aufwändigen und überaus erfolgreichen Verfilmung von Peter Jackson Premiere.
