J. R. R. Tolkien - Befejezetlen regék Númenorról and Középföldéről (2019)

The volume is the fruit of the organizing work of the author’s son, Christopher Tolkien: It publishes fragmentary or alternative additions to the stories known from Silmaril from all three ages, without change. In the pages of the book we can read about the youth of Húrin's children, Sauron's pre-Doom Númenor atrocities, the roots of the conflict between Saruman and Gandalf. The often incomplete texts provide an interesting background to the events of the known epics. J. R. R. Tolkien wanted to make up for the lost mythology of England, so his works can be seen as part of a large, comprehensive mythology. In addition to his father's notes, Christopher Tolkien provided the texts with a detailed note that provides an unprecedented in-depth analysis of the development, internal connections and reference system of Tolkien's mythology in Hungarian. It is both exciting for the lay reader and for researchers interested in Tolkien’s oeuvre.
