Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a libretto by Richard Wagner for a four-part musical drama titled Der Ring des Nibelungen. The first part of this tetralogy is Das Rheingold. The story is set in the mythical world of gods, giants, dwarfs, and heroes. Wagner's characters are embodiments of universal human themes, their struggles reflecting both our longing for power and our fear of the consequences of that power. In Das Rheingold, the composer introduces us to the dwarf Alberich who renounces love for the power of the ring he forges from stolen gold, thus setting in motion a chain of events that will culminate in his own destruction and the twilight of the gods.
