One Ring [SEP] Wagner's "Ring of the Nibelung"
Parallels have been drawn between the literary device of Tolkien's Ring and the titular ring in Richard Wagner's "Der Ring des Nibelungen". Tolkien dismissed critics' direct comparisons to Wagner, telling his publisher, "Both rings were round, and there the resemblance ceases." According to Humphrey Carpenter's biography of Tolkien, the author held Wagner's interpretation of the relevant Germanic myths in contempt. Some critics hold that Tolkien's work borrows so liberally from Wagner that it exists in the shadow of Wagner's. Others such as Gloriana St. Clair, attribute the resemblances to the fact that Tolkien and Wagner have created works based on the same sources.
