I argue that Wagner’s cycle of four operas, Der Ring des Nibelungen (1876), presents colloquial conceptions of time, space, and nature via supernatural, divine characters who often frame the world in terms of non-rational metaphysics. Primary among these minor roles is Erda, the personification of the primordial earth. Erda’s character prophesies the end of the world in Das Rheingold, a prophecy undone later in Siegfried by Erda’s primary interlocutor and chief of the gods, Wotan. I argue that Erda’s role changes in various stage productions of the Ring, and these changes bespeak a shifting attachment between humanity, the earth, and its imagined apocalyptic demise. As a given production asks new apocalyptic questions, we receive new fictive stage worlds with different limits, endings, and prophetic figures, often through different staging practices and forms of technological mediation. Apocalypticism takes many forms here, as the ends to many different kinds of worlds and epochs. The first chapter introduces what I am calling Wagner’s “voices from elsewhere,” magical or prophetic characters across his music dramas that sing prophecies from beyond the limits of the stage. Chapter 2 applies this framework to one of these “voices,” Erda, and analyzes her two scenes in the Ring (Das Rheingold scene 4 and Siegfried Act III, scene 1). Chapter 3 turns to Erda’s role as staged, where I argue we find many different “Erdas” among the history of staged Ring productions, where her message and the meaning of apocalypse in Wagner’s fictive world changes. iv Chapter 4 explores the Ring’s central themes of apocalypse and utopia; I aim to show here that contemporary stagings of the Ring display an ability for the work to dramatize new apocalypses and utopias. In chapter 5, I read Erda’s message particularly in terms of the lesson it prescribes— "learning to die”—and I focus on stagings that foreground the Ring’s paradoxical senses of time. v Table of Contents 1.0 Introduction: Voices from Elsewhere in Richard Wagner’s Music Dramas .................... 1 2.0 Erda’s Two Scenes: Apocalypse, Prophecy, and Peripeteia ............................................. 19 2.1 Das Rheingold, Scene 4: Apocalypse Prophesied ...................................................... 30 2.2 Siegfried Act III, Scene 1: Apocalypse Reversed ....................................................... 46 3.0 Erda in Three Dimensions: Historical, Remediated, and Live ......................................... 58 3.1 The Stakes of Staging Wagner’s Ring and the Ethos of Space at Bayreuth ........... 63 3.2 Mid-Century Ring Cycles ............................................................................................ 79 3.3 Opera in Place ............................................................................................................... 95 3.4 When I Saw the World End ....................................................................................... 102 4.0 Apocalypse Staged .............................................................................................................. 110 4.1 Anthropocene Endings ............................................................................................... 121 5.0 Learning to Die .................................................................................................................... 134 5.1 Starting Over Again ................................................................................................... 149 6.0 Conclusion: Opera and/as Metaphysics ............................................................................ 158 6.1 Learning to Dream in the Elsewhere ........................................................................ 161 6.2 Operatic Meaning, Truth, and Their Limits ............................................................ 171 Bibliography .............................................................................................................................. 179 vi List of Figures Figure 1-1 The "voice from above" sings Parsifal's prophecy ................................................. 6 Figure 1-2 The Woodbird's music ............................................................................................. 11 Figure 2-1 Erda's ascension music, mm. 3458-9 ...................................................................... 32 Figure 2-2 The music of the Rhine ............................................................................................ 32 Figure 2-3 Erda's monologue with Leitmotifs in brackets, mm. 3471-3508 .......................... 33 Figure 2-4 Erda's plea ("höre!"), mm. 3495-7 ......................................................................... 35 Figure 2-5 The Weltuntergang Prophecy, mm. 3499-3508 ..................................................... 37 Figure 2-6 The Götterdämmerung Leitmotif, mm. 3502-3 ..................................................... 38 Figure 2-7 The Erda and Götterdämmerung motifs ............................................................... 38 Figure 2-8 The Wanderer wakens Erda to the "love" motive, mm. 76-7 .............................. 50 Figure 2-9 Erda wakes up to "magic sleep" music, mm. 124-131 .......................................... 51 Figure 2-10 Erda explains her dream-knowledge, mm. 190-199 ............................................ 52 Figure 2-11 Erda accuses Wotan of "Meindei" [perjury], mm. 305-6 .................................. 53 Figure 2-12 Erda and Wotan exchange accusations, mm. 334-351 ........................................ 54 Figure 2-13 The World Inheritance Leitmotif, mm. 408-410 ................................................. 55 vii 1.0 Introduction: Voices from Elsewhere in Richard Wagner’s Music Dramas Voices and bodies often exist at the limits of hearing and at the limits of the stage in Richard Wagner’s music dramas, especially in his later works. Such is the case with many of the composer’s minor dramatis personae: the young sailor at the very start of Tristan und Isolde (1865), the mysterious “voice from above” and Titurel (the voice from the tomb) in Parsifal (1882), and numerous characters throughout the Ring cycle (1876), such as the Woodbird, Fafner, and—the subject of this study—Erda, the avatar of the primordial earth who dwells in its deepest reaches. However, I argue that Erda functions quite differently from other voices from elsewhere, yet still retains many of their magical and authoritative qualities. My analysis in this dissertation focuses on Erda’s role, further, because of its closeness with one of the Ring cycle’s most central and enduring themes: the end of the world, its Götterdämmerung or “twilight of the gods.” Erda is a character of ancestral, chthonic origins who, towards the end of the Ring’s first opera Das Rheingold (scene 4), emerges from under the stage and delivers a doomsday prophecy to Wotan, chief of the gods. She tells Wotan that “alles was ist, endet” [everything that is, ends], that he and the other gods are doomed to fade unless he shuns the all-powerful ring. Erda’s appearance, however, is a strange one. The contralto singing Erda, according to Wagner’s stage instructions, emerges to only half her height—she remains partly visible, half occupying the stage and half residing elsewhere. This is a small moment in Wagner’s large work of four music dramas and yet, it raises questions for those who witness and hear it: what is the relationship between this strange character, the apocalypse she prophesies, and the spectacle of her uncanny appearance? While these are tough questions to blithely answer, I argue in this dissertation that her role has provided productions of the Ring since Wagner’s own with a 1 vernacular mouthpiece for voicing and staging contemporary concerns about the end of the world, specific to the time and place of each reiteration of Erda’s appearance and the warning she sings. Later in the Ring, during the third drama (Siegfried Act III, scene 1), Erda appears again, in an episode where she and Wotan seem to flip their respective roles from their first encounter. Here, Erda appears entirely on the stage because Wotan, and us audience members, have ostensibly traveled to Erda’s dwelling place: that mysterious elsewhere. In this scene Wotan supplies the prophecy—not of apocalypse, but of a potential utopia guided by the redemption of the hero Siegfried by the sacrifice of Wotan’s Valkyrie daughter Brünnhilde. Yet,

    Synopsis Prologue Mythical times. At night in the mountains, the three Norns, daughters of Erda, weave the rope of destiny. They tell how Wotan ordered the World Ash Tree, from which his spear was once cut, to be felled and its wood piled around Valhalla. The burning of the pyre will mark the end of the old order. Suddenly, the rope breaks. Their wisdom ended, the Norns descend into the earth. Dawn breaks on the Valkyries’ rock, and Siegfried and Brünnhilde emerge. Having cast protective spells on Siegfried, Brünnhilde sends him into the world to do heroic deeds. As a pledge of his love, Siegfried gives her the ring that he took from the dragon Fafner, and she offers her horse, Grane, in return. Siegfried sets off on his travels. Act I In the hall of the Gibichungs on the banks of the Rhine, Hagen advises his half- siblings, Gunther and Gutrune, to strengthen their rule through marriage. He suggests Brünnhilde as Gunther’s bride and Siegfried as Gutrune’s husband. Since only the strongest hero can pass through the fire on Brünnhilde’s rock, Hagen proposes a plan: A potion will make Siegfried forget Brünnhilde and fall in love with Gutrune. To win her, he will claim Brünnhilde for Gunther. When Siegfried’s horn is heard from the river, Hagen calls him ashore. Gutrune offers him the potion. Siegfried drinks and immediately confesses his love for her.Ð When Gunther describes the perils of winning his chosen bride, Siegfried offers to use the Tarnhelm to transform himself into Gunther.

    The PIT: A YA Response to Miltonic Ideas of the Fall in Romantic Literature Callum Fraser Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy June 2018 Department of English Language, Literature and Linguistics Newcastle University i ii Abstract This project consists of a Young Adult novel — The PIT — and an accompanying critical component, titled Miltonic Ideas of the Fall in Romantic Literature. The novel follows the story of a teenage boy, Jack, a naturally talented artist struggling to understand his place in a dystopian future society that only values ‘productive’ work and regards art as worthless. Throughout the novel, we see Jack undergo a ‘coming of age’, where he moves from being an essentially passive character to one empowered with a sense of courage and a clearer sense of his own identity. Throughout this process we see him re-evaluate his understanding of friendship, love, and loyalty to authority. The critical component of the thesis explores the influence of John Milton’s epic poem, Paradise Lost, on a range of Romantic writers. Specifically, the critical work examines the way in which these Romantic writers use the Fall, and the notion of ‘falleness’ — as envisioned in Paradise Lost — as a model for writing about their roles as poets/writers in periods of political turmoil, such as the aftermath of the French Revolution, and the cultural transition between what we now regard as the Romantic and Victorian periods. The thesis’s ‘bridging chapter’ explores the connection between these two components. It discusses how the conflicted poet figures and divided narratives discussed in the critical component provide a model for my own novel’s exploration of adolescent growth within a society that seeks to restrict imaginative freedom.

  • The Bayreuth Festspielhaus: the Metaphysical Manifestation of Wagner's Der Ring Des Nibelungen Matthew Timmermans University of Ottawa
    Nota Bene: Canadian Undergraduate Journal of Musicology Volume 8 | Issue 1 Article 6 The Bayreuth Festspielhaus: The Metaphysical Manifestation of Wagner's Der Ring des Nibelungen Matthew Timmermans University of Ottawa Recommended Citation Timmermans, Matthew (2015) "The Bayreuth Festspielhaus: The Metaphysical Manifestation of Wagner's Der Ring des Nibelungen," Nota Bene: Canadian Undergraduate Journal of Musicology: Vol. 8: Iss. 1, Article 6. The Bayreuth Festspielhaus: The Metaphysical Manifestation of Wagner's Der Ring des Nibelungen Abstract This essay explores how the architectural design of the Bayreuth Festspielhaus effects the performance of Wagner’s later operas, specifically Der Ring des Nibelungen. Contrary to Wagner’s theoretical writings, which advocate equality among the various facets of operatic production (Gesamtkuntswerk), I argue that Wagner’s architectural design elevates music above these other art forms. The evidence lies within the unique architecture of the house, which Wagner constructed to realize his operatic vision. An old conception of Wagnerian performance advocated by Cosima Wagner—in interviews and letters—was consciously left by Richard Wagner. However, I juxtapose this with Daniel Barenboim’s modern interpretation, which suggests that Wagner unconsciously, or by a Will beyond himself, created Bayreuth as more than the legacy he passed on. The juxtaposition parallels the revolutionary nature of Wagner’s ideas embedded in Bayreuth’s architecture. To underscore this revolution, I briefly outline Wagner’s philosophical development, specifically the ideas he extracted from the works of Ludwig Feuerbach and Arthur Schopenhauer, further defining the focus of Wagner’s composition and performance of the music. The analysis thereby challenges the prevailing belief that Wagner intended Bayreuth and Der Ring des Nibelungen, the opera which inspired the house’s inception, to embody Gesamtkunstwerk; instead, these creations internalize the drama, allowing the music to reign supreme.

  • Il Favore Degli Dei (1690): Meta-Opera and Metamorphoses at the Farnese Court
    chapter 4 Il favore degli dei (1690): Meta-Opera and Metamorphoses at the Farnese Court Wendy Heller In 1690, Giovanni Maria Crescimbeni (1663–1728) and Gian Vincenzo Gravina (1664–1718), along with several of their literary colleagues, established the Arcadian Academy in Rome. Railing against the excesses of the day, their aim was to restore good taste and classical restraint to poetry, art, and opera. That same year, a mere 460 kilometres away, the Farnese court in Parma offered an entertainment that seemed designed to flout the precepts of these well- intentioned reformers.1 For the marriage of his son Prince Odoardo Farnese (1666–1693) to Dorothea Sofia of Neuberg (1670–1748), Duke Ranuccio II Farnese (1639–1694) spared no expense, capping off the elaborate festivities with what might well be one of the longest operas ever performed: Il favore degli dei, a ‘drama fantastico musicale’ with music by Bernardo Sabadini (d. 1718) and poetry by the prolific Venetian librettist Aurelio Aureli (d. 1718).2 Although Sabadini’s music does not survive, we are left with a host of para- textual materials to tempt the historical imagination. Aureli’s printed libretto, which includes thirteen engravings, provides a vivid sense of a production 1 The object of Crescimbeni’s most virulent condemnation was Giacinto Andrea Cicognini’s Giasone (1649), set by Francesco Cavalli, which Crescimbeni both praised as a most per- fect drama and condemned for bringing about the downfall of the genre.

  • WAGNER and the VOLSUNGS None of Wagner’S Works Is More Closely Linked with Old Norse, and More Especially Old Icelandic, Culture
    WAGNER AND THE VOLSUNGS None of Wagner’s works is more closely linked with Old Norse, and more especially Old Icelandic, culture. It would be carrying coals to Newcastle if I tried to go further into the significance of the incom- parable eddic poems. I will just mention that on my first visit to Iceland I was allowed to gaze on the actual manuscript, even to leaf through it . It is worth noting that Richard Wagner possessed in his library the same Icelandic–German dictionary that is still used today. His copy bears clear signs of use. This also bears witness to his search for the meaning and essence of the genuinely mythical, its very foundation.
