Paul Brian Heise's The Wound That Will Never Heal is an original
allegorical reading of Richard Wagner's epic music drama The Ring
of the Nibelung. Heise challenges the standard view that Wagner
merely dramatizes the conflict between love and power and
demonstrates instead that his greatest work is an allegory
exploring humanity's longing for transcendent value and that
quest's paradoxical establishment of a science-based secular
society. By employing a more extensive analysis of primary evidence
than any prior interpretation, The Wound That Will Never Heal is
the first interpretation to propose and sustain a global and
conceptually coherent account of the entire Ring.
