Tolkien question
Their research left out mention that Tolkien went back to the same sources that inspired Richard Wagner's own Ring tetralogy:
Der Ring des Niebelungen (The Ring of the Niebelung):
• Das Rheingold (The Rhine Gold)
• Die Walküre (The Valkyrie)
• Siegfried
• Götterdämmerung (Twilight of the Gods)
