Imibhalo engezantsi inokuvela ngaphandle kwenjongo yomdali. Kodwa ngamanye amaxesha ilungelelaniswe ngenjongo nebali eliphambili, kukhokelela kwibali elicebileyo. Kwakunjalo kwimeko Tolkien , apho izigcawu zibonisa ukuba kungakho iziqenga kubuhlobo bukaTolkien nembongi uGeoffrey Bache Smith. Ndithethile nomlawuli uDome Karukoski ukufumana okungakumbi.
*** Abatshabalalisi be Tolkien ***
Ukuba awukhange ujonge ukumelwa ngummangali, kunokwenzeka ukuba ukubonakaliswa kweemvakalelo zikaGeoffrey Bache Smith malunga neJ. UTolkien akazange akuxhume kwiscreen. Yenziwe cwaka. Isibonakaliso sokuqala sokuba uSmith ufakwa ikhowudi njengendlovukazi eza xa uSmith omncinci ebhala umbongo ngothando lwamaqabane adunyiswa ngabahlobo bakhe njengamaGrike ngendlela. Emva kwexesha, e-Oxford, uSmith umthuthuzela uTolkien emva kokuba efumene ukuba u-Edith wakhe amthandayo uganene nomnye umntu. USmith unika intetho ehambayo malunga nokucoceka kothando olungafakwanga ngelixa ejonge ngokubonakalayo kumhlobo wakhe osenyongweni.
Kwintliziyo yayo, Tolkien ikwenziwe kwakhona malunga nokukhangela kukaTolkien okutyhafileyo okufuna uSmith kwimisele yeWWI yeSomme. USmith-kwaye ekugqibeleni abonakalise ukusweleka kwakhe-liziko leemvakalelo kumdlalo bhanyabhanya, isihloko esiqala nesiphetha ngaso. Kube kanye kuphela xa uTolkien eqinisekile ukuba incwadi yomhlobo wakhe elahlekileyo iya kupapashwa ekubonakala ngathi uyakwazi ukuqhubeka nobomi bakhe nokubhala. Ngelixa umboniso bhanyabhanya ungacebisi ukuba uTolkien waziva engaphezulu kobuhlobo obunzulu kuSmith, kubonakala ngathi kuphuma kwindlela yakhe ebonisa ukuba intetho yothando engafunekiyo evela kuSmith ingabonakalisa iimvakalelo zakhe ngoTolkien.
Ndifuna ukuqiniseka ukuba ndiyayicacisa le nto njengoko bekucetyiwe, ndiye ndabuza umlawuli uDome Karukoski malunga naloo mhla wosasazo Tolkien kwisiXeko saseNew York. Sasisandula ukufika kutyelelo lomboniso weMorgan Library ngobomi bukaTolkien kunye nemisebenzi, umboniso omhle wemifanekiso yombhali, iileta, imibhalo-ngqangi, iifoto, kunye nezinye izikhumbuzo.
UKarukoski uthethe ngokudibene nomgcini womboniso, echaza ezinye zezigqibo ezibonakalayo neziyilayo ezenziwe kwimuvi, nendlela ezinxibelelana ngayo nomsebenzi kaTolkien. Kulapho ke apho ndaye ndabuqonda ubunzulu bokuzinikela kukaKarukoski kuTolkien (wayengumntu othanda umsebenzi wakhe ukusukela kwiminyaka eyi-12). Wayelwenzile ngenzondelelo lonke uphando olunokucingelwa kokubini kwindoda nakuMbindi womhlaba. Umphathi othandekayo waseFinland wazenza wafumaneka ukuze aphendule yonke imibuzo yethu. Okokuqala kuluhlu lwam yayiyimpembelelo yeminye yemiboniso phakathi kukaSmith noTolkien.
Ndacinga ukuba kukho uhlobo oluthile lokuthobela uGeoffrey ekusenokwenzeka ukuba wayenemvakalelo ngoTolkien, ndatsho. Unika intetho ngothando olungafunekiyo, kwaye bendizibuza ukuba ingaba sikhona na isiseko sembali kuloo nto, okanye ingaba yinto oyongezile.
Into eyenzekayo kukuba uStephen Beresford, omnye wababhali bethu, ulifanasini, kwaye wazifunda zonke iileta nayo yonke imibongo, kwaye wayefana ne-100% yokuba uGeoffrey wayelifanasini, wandixelela uKarukoski. Asinako Kleyima lonto. Xa ndifunda iileta, ndacinga, kuthekani ukuba obu bubuhlobo obusenyongweni kakhulu. Ke siyibonakalisile ngaloo ndlela. Ukuze inyaniseke kuGeoffrey Smith, ukuba wayenemvakalelo malunga noTolkien, uhlobo lolo luza [ngemovie].
Emva kokufunda iileta zikaSmith ezipheleleyo eziya kuTolkien, kunye nemibongo yakhe, umbhali wesikrini uBeresford wayeqinisekile ngesini sikaSmith. Abenzi bokuyila babesazi kakuhle ukuba abanako ukwenza naliphi na ibango elinjalo, ngaphandle kobungqina, njengesiqinisekiso sombhalo. Kodwa banokuvumela ukubakho kukaSmith kumxholo ongezantsi.
Lutshintsho oluhlaziyayo oluvela kuglossing oqhelekileyo oqhelekileyo kunye nokucinywa kommangali kulungelelwaniso lwembali kunye nokutolika. Oku ngombulelo kuye kwaqwalaselwa ngakumbi, kwahlekwa, kwiminyaka yakutshanje-indlela ababhali-mbali kunye nabenzi bokuyila bathanda ukungqina ukuba ukunamathela okunzulu kunye nothando olusebenzayo olubonakaliswe ngeeleta okanye eminye imisebenzi ziyimveliso yobuhlobo bokwenene okanye indlela ababethetha ngayo ngelo xesha. Njengokuba kungasayi kubakho bantu abakhulileyo kwezi ndawo bazichazayo kunye neenyaniso zabo ngendlela efanayo.
Kodwa endaweni yento evakalelwa ngokungagqibekanga asinakuthetha ngokuqinisekileyo ukuba ulifanasini, ke kufuneka achanekile, Tolkien , kunye nokubonakaliswa kukaSmith, endaweni yoko kuvumela, asinakuthetha ngokuqinisekileyo ukuba uyisitabane, kodwa kuthekani ukuba wayenjalo? Inokumelwa njani loo nto? Singanyaniseka njani kutoliko olwahlukeneyo kunye nezinto ezinokwenzeka ngomntu?
Eguqukayo ineqhekeza ngendlela bromances kwi Tolkien yenza kakuhle ngokusasaza ubudoda obunetyhefu, endiyavuma ukuba yinto entle ukuyibona kwiscreen. Tolkien kunye neTCBB yakhe ubudlelwane babahlobo bathandana kwaye bethandana omnye nomnye ngendlela enqabileyo ngokwaneleyo ukuba iboniswe phakathi kwamadoda, ngakumbi kwimuvi esekwe kwiindibano ezindala kunye nexesha lemfazwe. Ngokubhekisele kuTolkien noSmith:
UTolkien waqaphela umoya ozalana naye, umntu owayengumlingane womphefumlo kuye, u-Anthony Boyle, odlala uSmith Tolkien , uxelela Inverse. Ndicinga ukuba xa ujonga isenzo sikaSmith sokugqibela eMhlabeni: wabethwa nge-shrapnel kwaye into awakhetha ukuyenza kukubhalela uTolkien ileta. Ndicinga ukuba sesona senzo sihle sothando sikhona. Ukuba uyafa, ngubani oza kuba ngumnxeba wakho wokuqala? Kwakungowakhe, kwaye ndicinga ukuba kukho into ekhethekileyo malunga naloo nto.
Iinjongo ezintle njenge Inverse ’s Ukudumisa bromance, nangona kunjalo, kunokwenzeka ukuba kunokubakho, kulungile, Ezothando ngamanye amaxesha njengenxalenye yelo bromance. Kwi udliwanondlebe no Umgangatho UAnthony Boyle wayethetha phandle ngokubhala abantu ngaphandle kwembali ukuba asiyivumeli indlela yokufumana ezinye iindlela zokutolika kunye nokumelwa:
Ubudlelwane phakathi kukaSmith noTolkien ngokuqinisekileyo buchazelwe ukuba yinto engaphezulu. Ufuna ukwenza ubugcisa, ungaphenduli kubo, kwaye ubushiyele kolunye utoliko, utshilo uBoyle. Kodwa xa ujonga iileta eziphakathi kukaGeoffrey kunye noTolkien, ndiye ndafumanisa, njengoStephen Beresford [umbhali-mbhali womdlalo weqonga] ukuba uninzi lolwimi olusetyenziswayo luthando, indlela ababhalelana ngayo. Kwaye isenzo sokugqibela sikaGeoffrey eMhlabeni, emva kokubethwa yi-shrapnel, yayikukubhala ileta eya kuTolkien, hayi kwisithandwa sakhe, hayi kwisithandwa sakhe - isenzo sakhe sokugqibela njengoko wayesifa kukubhalela uTolkien ileta.
Uyema. UStephen wathetha into eqaqambileyo- ayithathi nkululeko ngalo mlinganiswa, abukho ubungqina ngqo bokuba wayethandana naye, kodwa ukuba asilandeli iimpumlo zethu xa ezi zinto sizinikiwe sibhala aba bantu zembali.
Akukho ndlela yokuba siyakuze siyazi inyaniso malunga neemvakalelo zikaGeoffrey Bache Smith, kodwa ndiyayixabisa Tolkien Umnqweno wokuvuma ukuba kunokwenzeka ukuba babekhona. Esikwaziyo kwiileta zabo nasekubhaleni kukuba yena noTolkien babenonxibelelwano olunzulu, nothando, kwaye bobabini babengabazobi abanesiphiwo ngokwenene.
Ngelixa uTolkien wayekwazi ukuzisa izipho zakhe ehlabathini, uSmith wasweleka ngexesha leMfazwe Yehlabathi I eneminyaka engama-22 ngo-1916. Tolkien uya kwazisa abafundi abatsha ngencwadi epapashwe kuphela yesihobe kaSmith, Ukuvunwa kwentwasahlobo , intshayelelo yayo ka-1918 ebhalwe nguTolkien. Ekugqibeleni, ukufumana Ukuvunwa kwentwasahlobo , endayifunda kwangoko kuloliwe egodukayo emva Tolkien , ibiyenye yeendlela zam endizithandayo ezivela kwimovie.
Wanga uThixo angakusikelela sithandwa sam uJohn Ronald, USmith ubhale kuTolkien ukusuka emfazweni, kwaye ungathetha izinto endizamile ukuzithetha emva kokuba ndingekho ukuzithetha ukuba zinjalo. Ndiyakholelwa ukuba singabahlonipha bobabini ngokuqhubeka nokufunda kunye nokwabelana ngomsebenzi obaqhubileyo.
KaGeoffrey Bache Smith Ukuvunwa kwentwasahlobo isimahla kwiProjekthi Gutenberg okanye iyafumaneka kwiAmazon , ukuba uthanda ukubamba iincwadi ezandleni zakho. Intshayelelo kaTolkien ilandela apha.
Imibongo yale ncwadi ibhalwe ngamaxesha ahlukeneyo kakhulu, inye (Umoya ngapha koLwandle) ndiyakholelwa kwasekuqaleni kowe-1910, kodwa indlela ezilandwe ngayo apha ayilandelelani nangaphaya kwento yokuba isahlulo sesithathu sinemibongo ebhaliweyo kuphela. emva kokuqhambuka kwemfazwe. Kwezi ezinye zabhalwa eNgilane (e-Oxford ngokukodwa), ezinye eWales kwaye zininzi kakhulu ngonyaka eFrance ukusuka ngo-Novemba 1915 ukuya ku-Disemba 1916, eyaphulwa ngekhefu elinye phakathi ku-Meyi.
Ukungcwatywa kukaSophocles, okubekwe apha esiphelweni, kwaqalwa ngaphambi kwemfazwe kwaye kwaqhubeka ngamaxesha angaqhelekanga nakwiimeko ezahlukeneyo emva koko; Inguqulelo yokugqibela ndiyithunyelwe ivela emseleni.
Ngaphandle kwezi nyaniso zimbalwa akukho siqalo kwaye akukho ukuthumela Iyafuneka ngaphandle kwale iprintwe njengokuba umbhali wayo ebashiyile.
