Richard Wagner has fascinated every generation of opera-lovers for over a century, and a mass of literature has interpreted and reinterpreted not only his character, but also the components of the great music dramas that are still some of the most captivating and complex operas in the international repertory today. In this excellent study, Garten examines the cultural and historical sources of these operas: the myths and legends that Wagner employed, in which much of his works' interest, other than the purely musical, can be found. Garten's study also shows how legends of the old Nordic gods, the troubadours and Minnesingers, the quest for the grail, as well as stories taken from folklore and history, were transformed into the theatrical mythology of Wagner's music dramas.

It would be a longer story than all the "Stories from Wagner" put together, to tell where these tales began and how they grew. Centuries before they were set to music in the soul of Richard Wagner, some of them had been chanted around rude camp-fires by savage-looking men clad in the skins of animals. They were repeated by word of mouth long before even the rudest art of writing was learned; and in various lands they were known, though the stories often differed. For in those days men believed in spirits, good and bad, and in giants, dwarfs, gods and goddesses. They told these stories to their children, just as real history is taught to-day; and later the legends were treasured not only for their deep interest but also because they showed how people lived and thought, long ago "while the world was in the making." When Wagner, the great music-dramatist of Germany, was writing his wonderful operas, he found much of this rich material lying ready at his hand. Other parts he adapted to suit his needs. And it is the form in which he used the tales that has been followed in the simple retelling in the present volume; hence the justice of the title-"Stories from Wagner." Let us pause a moment to see who this author was, and how he came to collect his themes.

In this series of related essays, the author, a distinguished Wagner scholar, attempts not only to identify Wagner's ideas on drama at all levels from spiritual and moral aspects down to techniques of acting and breath control, but also to show how vital and essential a part these ideas played in the actual creation of his dramatic works. Since Wagner was in equal measure a practical man and a visionary, the essays explore both theory and dramatic realization: the implications of his important treatise Opera and Drama, his concept of the setting for his operas that resulted in the building of the Festspielhaus at Bayreuth, the desired visual presentation with its demands upon the artifices of stagecraft, and the role of the singer-actor in presenting these unprecedented music dramas. The final essays trace the development of Tannhäuser and Parsifal from the moment of their conception to their final realization on stage, the one an early work written before his theories were fully formulated, the other both a final statement and a new beginning.
