Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the relationship between the Nibelungensage, a collection of heroic legends, and the Marchen, a group of traditional fairy tales. The author argues the Marchen vom dankbaren toten, a tale about a hero aided on his quest by a grateful dead man, is the source for the Werbungssage, a pivotal episode within the Nibelungensage. The author follows the transformation of the tale as it moves from the realm of folklore into the heroic world of epic poetry, tracing the evolution of its characters and themes. While the hero of the Marchen is aided by a dead man, in the Werbungssage, this role is taken up by Hagen, one of the central figures of the Nibelungenlied. Ultimately, this book sheds new light on the complex relationship between myth, legend, and folklore, enhancing our understanding of the origins and development of some of Europe's most enduring tales.
