Richard Wagner (1813-1883) spiegelte in seiner letzten Oper Parsifal. Ein Buhnenweihfestspiel sein Jahrhundert mit allen Hohen und Tiefen. Europa war auf dem konfliktreichen Weg von einer Agrar- zu einer Industriegesellschaft. Entfremdung von der Natur, Verlust der kirchlichen Einbindung, Beginn der Frauenemanzipation und zunehmende nationalistische Verblendung fanden ihren Platz in diesem Werk, das Theodor W. Adorno als sich selbst entlarvende 'Phantasmagorie' bezeichnete. Wagner schopfte bei der Konzeption seines Librettos mitnichten nur aus der hohen Literatur, sondern rezipierte ephemere und apokryphe Schriften. Die Veroffentlichung des noch nicht komponierten Operntextes im Jahr 1877 loste damals bereits eine internationale Flut von Schrifttum aus, die 1914 nach der Aufhebung des Auffuhrungsmonopols fur das Bayreuther Festspielhaus einem neuen Hohepunkt zustrebte, dann aber durch den Kriegsausbruch zum Erliegen kam. Arno Mentzel-Reuters stellt diese Literatur ausfuhrlich vor, teils mit Annotation bibliographiert. Im Kontext der Mittelalterrezeption und des Buchmarkts des Industriezeitalters wird, weit uber die Welt der Oper hinaus, die unheilvolle Rolle Bayreuths und des Gralsmythos erkennbar.
