J. R. R. TOLKIENOpis
The world first publication of a previously unknown work by J.R.R. Tolkien, which tells the epic
story of the Norse hero, Sigurd, the dragon-slayer, the revenge of his wife, Gudrun, and the Fall of the
Nibelungs. "Many years ago, J.R.R. Tolkien composed his own version, now published for the first time,
of the great legend of Northern antiquity, in two closely related poems to which he gave the titles
The New Lay of the Volsungs and The New Lay of Gudrun. In the Lay of the Volsungs is told the ancestry
of the great hero Sigurd, the slayer of Fafnir most celebrated of dragons, whose treasure he took for his
own; of his awakening of the Valkyrie Brynhild who slept surrounded by a wall of fire, and of their betrothal;
and of his coming to the court of the great princes who were named the Niflungs (or Nibelungs), with whom
he entered into blood-brotherhood. In that court there sprang great love but also great hate, brought about by
the power of the enchantress, mother of the Niflungs, skilled in the arts of magic, of shape-changing and
potions of forgetfulness. In scenes of dramatic intensity, of confusion of identity, thwarted passion, jealousy
and bitter strife, the tragedy of Sigurd and Brynhild, of Gunnar the Niflung and Gudrun his sister, mounts to its
end in the murder of Sigurd at the hands of his blood-brothers, the suicide of Brynhild, and the despair of Gudrun.
In the Lay of Gudrun her fate after the death of Sigurd is told, her marriage against her will to the mighty Atli, ruler
of the Huns (the Attila of history), his murder of her brothers the Niflung lords, and her hideous revenge. Deriving
his version primarily from his close study of the ancient poetry of Norway and Iceland known as the Poetic Edda
(and where no old poetry exists, from the later prose work the Volsunga Saga), J.R.R. Tolkien employed a verse-form of
short stanzas whose lines embody in English the exacting alliterative rhythms and the concentrated energy of the poems
of the Edda. -- Christopher Tolkien
