Told with tragic insight, yet sympathetically, the epic may well be described as the story of man, the victim of himself. Mueller analyzes the work in three chapters, focused on substance, essence and significance, in order to make the epic poem relevant to a modern audience. 410 0$aUniversity of North Carolina studies in the Germanic languages and literatures ;$vno. 34. 606 $aNibelungen in literature 606 $aEpic poetry, German$xHistory and criticism 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aNibelungen in literature. 615 0$aEpic poetry, German$xHistory and criticism. 700 $aMueller$b Werner A$g(Werner Achilles),$f1903-1999,$01024381 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910403769403321 996 $aThe Nibelungenlied Today$92434465 997 $aUNINA
