RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 Símbolo y forma: los hermanos Grimm en Richard Wagner A1 Salmerón Infante, Miguel A2 Ediciones Universidad de Valladolid K1 Literatura AB This paper examines how and why Grimm´s Tales are present in Richard Wagner´s works. Providing with a more specific approach to this reflection, this analysis focusses on Siegfried, the densest Wagner´s Musical drama according fairy tales atmosphere in his opera omnia, and the influences and the thematical, formal and linguistical appropiations from the KHM, already studied. The article gives for granted that there are two elements used by Wagner in his musical dramas: symbols for the articulation of the German identity, and tale as a genre, with its recurrent topics and formulae he used for his music, as much as Leitmotiv is concerned, not to forget the frequent presence of an orphan as a character, as much as in Wagner as in Grimm Brothers.
