Джон Толкиен биография на английском

On January 3, 1892, John Ronald Reuel Tolkien was born in Bloemfontein, South Africa. Tolkien settled near Birmingham, England at the age of four after his father, a banker died in South Africa. He went to school at King Edward’s School in Birmingham and Exeter College. He later studied English language and literature at Oxford where he received a B.A. in 1915 and M.A. in 1919. Tolkien married his long time love, Edith Bratt in 1916. He served in the army briefly during World War I as a second lieutenant. After the War, Tolkien’s first civilian job was at The New English Dictionary better known as Oxford English Dictionary today where he worked on the history of words of Germanic origin. He spent most of his life teaching English language and literature at renowned universities such as Leeds (1920-1925) and Oxford (1925-1959). His influential 1936 lecture, Beowulf: The Monsters and the Critics opened new doors to research on Beowulf.

Inspired by mythologies and legends, Tolkien spent a lot of time writing ingenious fantasy stories. He invented his own languages to be spoken by the elfish characters in his tales. The Silmarillion, which was published in 1977 long after it’s completion is a depiction of Tolkien’s thirst for learning early languages and making up his own fantasy language.

The Hobbit (1937), which Tolkien originally wrote for his children, narrates the story of a Hobbit, a small man like creature who set out on a quest for treasure. Gaining immense popularity, the book was published again with pictures drawn by Tolkien. The publisher convinced Tolkien to write a sequel which came 17 years later in the form of The Lord of The Rings (1954-1955). Although Tolkien intended to target it towards children as a sequel to The Hobbit, instead it turned out to be more serious and attracted a grown up readership. The Lord of The Rings has topped many lists and was named The Nation’s Best Loved Book after a survey conducted by BBC in 2003. Published in three volumes namely The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, and The Return of the King were later adapted to screen by NewZealand director Peter Jackson in a series of three parts films in 2001-2003.

Some more of Tolkien’s further noted works include Farmer Giles of Ham (1949), The Adventures of Tom Bombadil and Other Verses from the Red Book (1962), Tree and Leaf (1964), Smith of Wootton Major (1967). Some of Tolkien’s incomplete work finished by his son Christopher after his death includes The Silmarillion, the “prequel” to The Lord of the Rings, Unfinished Tales of Nmenor and Middle-earth (1980) and Children of Hrin.

J. R. R. Tolkien whose legacy continues even today through his masterpieces died on September 2, 1973.

Конспект урока "Famous people. JRR Tolkien"

Throughout the centuries, there have been many brilliant writers. Some writers have an awesome ability to bring life to their characters, make the language they write with very beautiful, or portray their ideas through their works. These writers have discovered the secret to eternal life. That is through their literature.

J. R. R. Tolkien is one of the most influential writers of all time. He is named the “Father of Fantasy” because he brought it back into style.

John Ronald Reuel Tolkien known professionally as J. R. R. Tolkien, was an English writer, poet, philologist, and university professor. He is famous as the author of The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, and The Silmarillion.

John Ronald Reuel Tolkien was born in South Africa on January 3, 1892.

He lived there for 4 years until his father died in 1896. This left the family without an income, so Tolkien’s mother took him and his younger brother to live with her parents in Birmingham. Mabel Tolkien taught her two children at home. Ronald, as he was known in the family, was a keen pupil. She taught him botany a lot. Young Tolkien liked to draw landscapes and trees, but his favourite lessons were languages, and his mother taught him Latin very early.

He could read by the age of four and could write fluently soon afterwards. His mother allowed him to read many books.

Tolkien was brought up as a Catholic and grew up living in poverty, but their situation got worse when his mother died from diabetics in 1904.

John and his younger brother were brought up by the Catholic Priest until he was 21.

Tolkien attended King Edward’s School in Birmingham. In 1911 J.R.R. went on to get his first-class degree at Exeter College in Oxford, specializing in Anglo-Saxon and Germanic languages and classic literature.

At the age of 16, Tolkien met Edith Mary Bratt, who was three years older.

However, his guardian Father Morgan, coming from a strong Catholic belief, did not approve of this relationship. He prohibited him from meeting, talking to, or even corresponding with her until he was 21. Father Morgan threatened to cut short his University career if he did not stop.

He studied Latin, Greek, French, Finnish, Anglo-Saxon, Middle English, and Welsh. He also studied Norse Mythology and later translated some Norse works. He began to create his own languages at a very young age.

These languages inspired him to create his fantastic stories. His studies of Norse Mythology would also affect his writings.

When Tolkien finished his education at Oxford he began to train for the English Army. In 1916 he married Edith and then set out to fight in WWI. Five months after he left to fight, he returned with Trench Fever. During this time, he began taking notes about Middle Earth. These notes would later be called the Silmarillion.

After World War I he worked mainly on the history and etymology of words of Germanic origin beginning with the letter W at the Oxford English Dictionary.

Continuing his linguistic studies, Tolkien joined the faculty of the University of Leeds in 1920 and a few years later became a professor at Oxford University.

The award-winning fantasy novel The Hobbit - about the small, furry-footed Bilbo Baggins and his adventures - was published in 1937 and was regarded as a children’s book, though Tolkien would state the book wasn’t originally intended for children. He also created more than 100 drawings to support the stories.

Over the years Tolkien developed the work that would come to be regarded as his masterpiece – The Lord of the Rings series, partially inspired by ancient European myths, with its own sets of maps, lore and languages.

It is a collection of stories ranging from the creation of the world, Arda and Middle Earth within it, to the destruction of the Ring and the elves leaving the world to go to a heaven like place. The land is populated by elves, goblins, talking trees and all manner of fantastic creatures, including characters like the wizard Gandalf and the dwarf Gimli.

While Rings had its share of critics, many reviewers considered the books to become global best-sellers, with fans forming Tolkien clubs and learning his fictional languages.

Tolkien retired from professorial duties in 1959, going on to publish an essay and poetry collection, Tree and Leaf, and the fantasy tale Smith of Wootton Major.

All of Tolkien’s creations were snapped from the shelves earning him a *CBE from the Queen and the finances to move to the quiet town of Bournemouth in his later years.

*CBE (Commander of the Order of the British Empire) - an award given in Britain to some people for a special achievement.

His wife Edith died in 1971, and Tolkien died on September 2, 1973, at the age of 81.

Tolkien had four children, three boys and a girl. The youngest boy, Christopher J. R. Tolkien, helped him edit and publish many of his works. Christopher has been in charge of Tolkien’s works since the death of the great author.

The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings series are amongst the most popular books in the world, having sold tens of millions of copies.

The Rings trilogy was also adapted by director Peter Jackson into a highly popular, award-winning trio of films starring Ian McKellen, Elijah Wood, Cate Blanchett and Viggo Mortensen, among others.

Jackson also produced a three-part Hobbit movie adaptation starring Martin Freeman and being released at the end of 2012.

Tolkien’s son Christopher has edited several works that weren’t completed at the time of his father’s death, including The Silmarillion and The Children of Húrin. The Art of the Hobbit was published in 2012, celebrating the novel’s 75th anniversary by presenting Tolkien’s original illustrations.

There are seven blue plaques in England that commemorate places associated with Tolkien: one in Oxford, one in Bournemouth, four in Birmingham and one in Leeds.

Here are some of Tolkien’s quotes. Can you translate them in Russian?

Now check yourselves and match the quotes to their Russian equivalents.

All that is gold does not glitter; not all those that wander are lost.

Не всё то золото, что блестит, также не все те, которые бродят, теряются.

All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

Все, что мы должны решить, это что делать со временем, которое нам дано.

Faithless is he that says farewell when the road darkens.

Ненадёжен тот, кто быстро прощается, когда темнеет на дороге.

Little by little, one travels far.

Понемногу, можно объездить весь мир. (Тише едешь – дальше будешь.)

“You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream…,” said C.S. Lewis (Tolkien’s best friend and the author of The Chronicles of Narnia).

Never stop dreaming, because as creators, we are free to go anywhere and to be anyone we want to.

John Ronald Reuel Tolkien was an English writer, poet, philologist, and university professor who is best known as the author of the classic high-fantasy works The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, and The Silmarillion.

John Ronald Reuel Tolkien was born on January 3, 1892, in South Africa to his British parents, Arthur and Mabel Tolkien.

At the age of three he moved with his mother to Sarehole, a village outside Birmingham, England.

Both parents died when Tolkien was quite young, and he and his younger brother were placed in the care of a priest, Father Francis Morgan.

While a student at King Edward's School in Birmingham, he excelled in Latin, Greek, German, and Middle English.

Tolkien attended Exeter College, Oxford, and graduated with a degree in English Literature in 1915.

As World War I had begun, he enlisted in the army.

Before going to France as a signal officer, he married his childhood sweetheart, Edith Bratt.

After the war, Tolkien returned to Oxford, becoming professor of Anglo-Saxon in 1925.

He also began creating fantastic stories for his children, three boys and a girl, and he wrote some of them down.

The Hobbit was published in 1937.

Its immediate success led to a 10-year writing process to create The Lord of the Rings, which included three volumes, The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers and The Return of the King.

Tolkien enjoyed academic and literary fame up until and well after his retirement in 1959.

Tolkien died in 1973, not long after his wife passed.

His son, Christopher, organized and published many of Tolkien's extensive unpublished material, such as The Silmarillion
