Wagner was a serious student of the myths and sagas of Northern Europe, and the \u003cem\u003eRing\u003c\/em\u003e is surprisingly faithful to them. Wagner retells the traditional stories, revealing new layers of meaning. Indeed, of all the works that have preserved Germanic mythology, Wagner's \u003cem\u003eRing \u003c\/em\u003eis the most beautiful and the most profound. Cleary includes a detailed account of the composer's use of the traditional sources. In addition, he offers a complete interpretation of the \u003cem\u003eRing\u003c\/em\u003e, demonstrating Wagner's synthesis of German myth and German philosophy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51376798269663,"sku":"9781642641011","price":21.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0813\/8958\/4607\/files\/Hm4K-k8c109781642641011.webp?v=1789225364"}],"url":"https:\/\/blackandbarhe.com\/collections\/collin-cleary.oembed","provider":"Black \u0026 Barhe Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
