Nibelungs
Literature尼伯龙人
(germany) Friedrich Heibel
"The Nibelungs" is adapted from "The Nibelungenlied", one of the most important narrative literatures in medieval Germany. It is a trilogy of plays written by Friedrich Heibel from 1850 to 1860. It was published in 1861. It is the most influential drama with the theme of the Nibelung myth besides Richard Wagner's opera "The Ring of the Nibelungs". The play consists of the one-act play "Siegfried with skin like dragon scales", the five-act tragedy "The Death of Siegfried" and the five-act tragedy "Kriemhild's Revenge". Translating this play into China will, on the one hand, help domestic readers have a more comprehensive understanding of the history of the reception of traditional legends in modern Germany, and on the other hand, it will also enable more readers to have a better understanding of Hebel, an important writer of the 19th century.
