|
The Silmarillion is a collection of mythological tales that form the foundation of the universe of Middle-earth, set before the events of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. It describes the creation of the world, the history of the divine beings known as the Valar and Maiar, the Elves, Men, and Dwarves, and the great wars that shape the fate of the world. The central focus is on the Silmarils, three magical jewels created by the Elven prince Fëanor, and their influence on the world, leading to conflict, betrayal, and tragedy. The book includes the Ainulindalë (the creation myth), the Valaquenta (the nature of the Valar and Maiar), the story of Númenor's downfall (Akallabêth), and Of the Rings of Power which connects the events to the Third Age.
