Notes
The Silmarillion is a collection of mythopoeic works by J.R.R. Tolkien, edited and published posthumously by his son Christopher Tolkien in 1977. Serving as a prelude to The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, it delves into the creation and early history of Middle-earth, chronicling the epic struggles of gods, Elves, Men, and other beings. Central to the narrative are the Silmarils, three radiant jewels crafted by the Elf Fëanor, whose fate sparks wars, betrayals, and tragic heroism. Through its intricate lore and poetic style, The Silmarillion reveals the deep mythology underpinning Tolkien's legendary universe.
