Asunto: SIEGFRIED. A partir de las ilustraciones de Rackham.
Hola, amigos:

Aquí tenéis la siguiente entrega del Anillo a partir de las ilustraciones de Rackham. La numeración se corresponde con las viñetas que aparecen en la web que os di. Como en el caso anterior, será la base que utilizaré para adptarla a niños a partir de 8 años. Simplificaré la historia y añadiré algún diálogo para que resulte más amena su lectura a los peques.

Como veis, está en inglés americano. Si algún voluntario se anima a traducirlo al castellano, seguro que habrá quien se lo agradecerá en el foro. Esa sería otra forma de participar, traduciendo para que todos lo puedan entender. Os animo a ello, si os apetece.

Yo voy a trabajarlo en inglés no por hacer la puñeta a nadie ? parece mentira que haya que tener que decir esto ? sino porque, como profe de inglés de mi cole, es mi trabajo. Lo adjunto al foro porque pienso que puede ser de utilidad.

Muchas gracias por vuestra atención, y VENGA, A VER QUIÉN LO TRADUCE AL CASTELLANO.

Rex.

PD. Aquí tenéis el enlace del que he copiado los textos:

SIEGFRIED. A partir de las ilustraciones de Rackham.


ACT I (1-9)


1. Years later, Mime toils over an anvil in a cavern in a wood. He is making yet another sword for Siegfried, who has grown to young manhood. But labor as he may to make a sturdy weapon, Siegfried always shatters it. Mime wishes he had the skill to reforge Nothung, Siegmund?s sword which was shattered in the final battle with Hunding, and whose pieces he has.

2. Mime tells Siegfried of the care he took in raising him, and complains that Siegfried has never returned his love. Siegfried says it was no love at all, and in truth Mime has raised the boy only so that he will slay Fafner and secure the ring for him.

3. Siegfried says that he has learned of love by watching the way wild animals, such as foxes, tend their young.

4. When Mime claims that he is both mother and father to Siegfried, he is met witch scorn. Offspring look like their parents, says Siegfried, and once, seeing his reflection in a stream, he had noted that he bore no resemblance to Mime. He demands to know who his parents really were.

5. Mime relates how he found Sieglinde in the forest and tended her. She died in bearing Siegfried, but left the fragments of Notung. Exited by his legacy from his father Siegfried charges Mime to reforge the sword and goes out into the forest, away from the loathsome dwarf whose very presence he cannot abide.

6. The Wanderer enters. He is Wotan in disguise, who keeps watch on Siegfried in the hope that the boy will be able to carry out the world-redeeming deed he had intended for Siegmund.

7. The Wanderer and Mime ask each other questions about the realms of the world. Mime tells of Fafner and the hoard. Warning Mime that the sword Notung will be reforged only by one who does not know fear and that the same man will cause Mime?s death, the Wanderer leaves.

8. When Siegfried returns he is angered to find Nothung still in pieces. Mime tells him that only someone who does not know fear can reforge it. Siegfried says that person is he and sets about work. Mime promises to teach him fear at Fafner?s lair, and prepares a deadly potion he intends to give the hero after he has slain the dragon. Siegfried files down the sword, melts it and cast it anew.

9. Having remade his father?s sword, Siegfried tests Nothung on the anvil, which is split in two with a single stroke. Mime cowers in fear, remembering the Wanderer?s prophecy.


ACT II (10-12)


10. Mime leads Siegfried into the forest. Siegfried calls forth the dragon Fafner from his lair and slays him.

11. Fafner?s blood trickles onto Siegfried hand, burning it. Siegfried puts it to his mouth to soothe it and discovers that the blood has given him the powers to understand the speech of bird. A forest bird tells Siegfried of the treasure hidden in the cave.

12. As soon as Siegfried enters the cave, Alberich appears and quarrels with Mime over possession of the hoard. Alberich slinks off. When Siegfried emerges he wears the ring and has the Tarnhelm. He is able to read Mime?s thoughts about killing him with the potions and so slays the dwarf. The bird tells him that a wife awaits him atop a mountain surrounded by fire, and leads him to her.


ACT III (13-15)


13. Siegfried crosses the fire and reaches Brünnhilde. Seeing the sleeping form, the first woman he has ever known, he is filled with fear. He sinks upon Brünnhilde and kisses her.

14. Brünnhilde is finally awakened. Joyously, the salutes the sun.

15. Then Brünnhilde turns to Siegfried. At first she is horrified by the loss of her godhood. Soon, however, she respond as the mortal woman she has become and, bidding a final farewell to the splendor of Walhalla, offers Siegfried her love.
