The Wibelungen by Richard Wagner is a four-part opera that tells the story of the legendary German hero, Siegfried, and his love for the Valkyrie, Br�����nnhilde. The story is based on ancient Germanic myths and legends, and follows Siegfried as he battles dragons, wins a magical ring, and ultimately faces his demise at the hands of his enemies. The opera is known for its powerful music, epic storytelling, and themes of love, betrayal, and redemption. It is considered one of Wagner's greatest works and has been performed countless times around the world. The Wibelungen is a must-read for anyone interested in opera, mythology, or German culture.The World-ruler recognised from whence his deepest wound had come, and who it was that cried his world-plan final halt. It was the spirit of free Manhood loosed from the nature-soil of race, that had faced him in this Lombard Bond. He made short work of both the older foes: to the High-priest he gave his hand, --he fell with crushing force upon the selfish Guelphs; and so, once more arrived at summit of his power and undisputed might, --he spake the Lombards free, and struck with them a lasting peace.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
