作者简介

罗伯特-福斯特出生在纽约的布鲁克林。十几岁时，他在公共图书馆发现了《指环王》，并且是美国托尔金协会的成员。福斯特对词源学的兴趣使他编制了一份词汇表，其中包括《霍比特人》和《魔戒》中出现的每个名字、地点、物体和事件，该词汇表于1966年出现在托尔金粉丝杂志《Niekas》上。他曾是新泽西州罗格斯大学的英语助理教授，但退休后他一直在追求他对家族史的兴趣。

Robert Foster was born in Brooklyn, New York. As a teenager, he discovered The Lord of the Rings in his public library, and was an original member of the Tolkien Society of America. Foster's interest in etymology led him to compile a glossary of every name, place, object and event that appears in The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, which in 1966 appeared in the Tolkien fanzine, Niekas. He was an Assistant Professor of English at Rutgers University, New Jersey, but since retirement he has pursued his interest in family history.
