	Nibelungen Tradition
		The Nibelungen Tradition also provides the reader with an analysis of all of the primary literary sources, thumbnail sketches of characters and places associated with the tradition, significant motifs and key concepts, the historical background, and the most important scholarship to date on the topic.
		The Nibelungen Tradition is the first comprehensive reference work on one of the major themes in Germanic and world literature, and is intended to provide the reader with an extensive overview of the Nibelungen tradition from its origins to the present.
		While the bulk of entries in The Nibelungen Tradition are directly related to the Nibelungen theme, with references to the Nibelungenlied based on manuscript B, unless otherwise stated, the one obvious area that has not been considered in detail is Wagneriana.

	XL. i. Wagner’s Nibelungen Ring. Vols. I & II: Stories of Gods and Heroes. Bulfinch, Thomas. 1913. Age of Fable
		Richard Wagner’s music-drama of the Nibelungen Ring bears some resemblance to the ancient German epic, it is a wholly independent composition and was derived from various old songs and sagas, which the dramatist wove into one great harmonious story.
		He gives her the Nibelungen ring to keep as a pledge of his love till his return.
		Those who wish to study the differences in the legends of the Nibelungen Lied and the Nibelungen Ring, and the way in which Wagner used his ancient material, are referred to Professor W. Sawyer’s book on “Teutonic Legends in the Nibelungen Lied and the Nibelungen Ring,” where the matter is treated in full detail.

		The game is split into 4 or 5 separate adventure-quests, which all radiate out from a central point (much like Atlantis 2 where the magic boat was the hub) in this case it’s a kind of asteroid with a plateau in the middle of it.

		Fritz Lang's Nibelungen should not be seen as a cinematic version of the musical, though upon the film's American release, and subsequently, a Wagnerian soundtrack was added, much to the director's ire.
		He captures the Nibelungen treasure and acquires a magic cloak which makes him invisible and provides him with the strength of many men.

	Levin, D.J.: Richard Wagner, Fritz Lang, and the Nibelungen: The Dramaturgy of Disavowal.
		David Levin argues that Richard Wagner's opera cycle Der Ring des Nibelungen and Fritz Lang's 1920s film Die Nibelungen creatively exploit contrasts between good and bad aesthetics to address the question of what is German and what is not.
		His fresh and interdisciplinary approach sheds new light not only on Wagner's Ring and Lang's Die Nibelungen, but also on the ways in which aesthetics can be put to the service of aggression and hatred.
		The book is an important contribution to scholarship in film and music and also to the broader study of German culture and national identity.

		Unfortunately, the beauty is marred because of the horrible compression routine used which leaves nasty artifacts when the pictures begin to move.

		This essay relates Fritz Lang's mediaeval epic film Die Nibelungen to the three Western films he made in Hollywood.
		In particular the last of these, Rancho Notorious, reworks the theme of "fate, murder, and revenge," which is fundamental not only to Die Nibelungen but also to Lang's work as a whole.
		Two quintessentially American film genres, the Western and film noir, have been more strongly influenced by European literary and cinematic traditions than all others.
