Richard Wagner's "Ring of the Nibelungen" in the light of German criminal law
by Ernst von Pidde
Yes, there are people who write books about something. Lord of Pidde searches the act of Wagner's Tetralogy of crime and will of course find it. False imprisonment, theft, murder ... same time, he provides the appropriate definitions and articles of the Penal Code and explains what the relevant actors would get for Sun But what he unfortunately clarify also can not, is whether the offenses are already barred because the premieres so long ago, if they are punishable at all, because they were committed initially, as the German criminal law not yet in its current form existed or whether they are re-date and strafenswert through each new performance. And how is it ever with performances abroad, where the German criminal law is not to apply. It is certain it is only that one can not sue the singer, as the play's only crime.
learn Furthermore, we, too, that M. de Pidde operas anyway rather like it when they have no music, and as an added advantage, the resulting extinction of species cites opera tenor.
Great book. Very funny, completely absurd, but certainly perfectly legal, because the author is a lawyer. With very dry humor and sarcastic comments written - and in the end actually two people go unpunished: Floßhilde and Freia. If this is not a performance times. ; D
