Quatrième de couverture
THE HISTORY OF MIDDLE-EARTH
Volume 7
CHRISTOPHER TOLKIEN
The Treason of Isengard continues the account of the
creation of The Lord of the Rings started in the earlier volume, The
Return of the Shadow.
It traces the great expansion of the tale into new lands and new peoples south
and east of the Misty Mountains: the emergence of Lothlórien, of Ents,
of the Riders of Rohan, and of Saruman the White in the fortress of Isengard.
In brief outlines and pencilled drafts dashed down on scraps of paper are seen
the first entry of Galadriel, the earliest ideas of the history of Gondor, and
the original meeting of Aragorn and Éowyn, its significance destined
to be wholly transformed.
The book also contains a full account of the original map which was to be the
basis of the emerging geography of Middle-earth; and an appendix examines the
Runic alphabets, with illustrations of the forms and an analysis of the Runes
used in the book of Mazarbul found beside Balin's tomb in Moria.
