Richard Wagner's magnum opus meets the celebrated translator of
Jules Verne novels in this colorful and original work. Frederick
Paul Walter makes Twilight for the Gods accessible not only to
scholars and opera buffs but also to fans of Tolkien, Star Wars,
and Hogwarts through a dazzling new translation in lively modern
English and annotations that spotlight the libretto, lyrics, and
stage directions. The translation conveys Wagner's humor, rhymes,
alliterative effects, subliminal messages, and inventive tale
spinning, plus it also gets the most basic ingredient right: the
actual story! It highlights the motives, secrets, and plot
twists-what's really going on and what its narrative shows.
Accompanying the translation and annotations are dozens of photos
of classic artwork by Arthur Rackham, Howard Pyle, Aubrey
Beardsley, the 1876 costume and set designs, and much more.
