Notes
"The Silmarillion" is a profound and intricate mythology created by J.R.R. Tolkien, published posthumously by his son, Christopher Tolkien. It serves as the foundational text for the fictional universe of Middle-earth, preceding "The Hobbit" and "The Lord of the Rings." The book chronicles the creation of Ea, the world, and the struggles of its inhabitants against the malevolent Dark Lord Morgoth. Comprising interconnected tales of gods, elves, men, and other beings, "The Silmarillion" explores themes of creation, destiny, heroism, and the eternal battle between light and darkness. Its lyrical prose and rich lore offer readers a deeper understanding of Tolkien's vast and enchanting mythos.
