Traditionally, Wagnerian scholarship has always treated the Ring
and Parsifal as two separate works. The Redeemer Reborn: Parsifal
as the Fifth Opera of Wagner's Ring shows how Parsifal is in fact
actually the fifth opera of the Ring. Schofield explains in detail
how these five musical dramas portray a single, unbroken story
which begins at the start of Das Rheingold when Wotan breaks a
branch from the World Ash-tree and Alberich steals the gold of the
Rhine, thus separating Spear and Grail, and ends with the reunion
of the Spear and Grail in the temple of Monsalvat at the end of
Parsifal. Schofield explains how and why the four main characters
of the Ring are reborn in the opera Parsifal, needing to complete
in Parsifal the spiritual journey begun in the Ring. He also shows
how the redemption that is not attained in the process of the Ring
is finally realized in the events of Parsifal.
