Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Nibelung, Lied: Lay of the Nibelung The position of the class of "well-informed" persons with respect to the Nibelungen Lied or Lay of the Nibelung has probably not altered greatly since Carlyle wrote in 1831 that "they were obliged to profess admiration, while at the same time they only knew what they admired by name." It is true that Wagner´s glorious music in the Niebelung´s Ring stirred listeners a few years ago to a study of his text, and that the names of Siegfried and Brunhilda, Gunther and Hagen, became, in this way, familiar to many. But the Nibelungen Lied itself, the great Northern Epos or German Iliad, is, I believe, still unknown in England, save to a very few; and it is this belief which must plead as my excuse for the attempt I have made to set the story in a plain and perhaps a too literal form before the reader, in the following translation.
