Summary
This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
While Thomas Carlyle didn't write 'The Nibelungenlied' itself, he wrote a significant essay about it. In this essay, Carlyle explores the themes and historical context of the epic poem, highlighting its portrayal of Germanic heroism, loyalty, and tragedy. He praises the poem's raw power and emotional depth, drawing parallels with ancient epics like the Iliad and Odyssey. He also acknowledges the poem's complex morality and questions surrounding its characters' motivations. Carlyle's essay played a crucial role in introducing 'The Nibelungenlied' to a wider English audience during the 19th century. It's important to note that this summary refers to Carlyle's essay, not the original poem itself.
