Given that I've read TWO translations, I DO find it some what interesting to find that in Branscombe's version the tree in front of Pogner's house is a lime-tree & the one in front of Sachs' is an elder - whereas in this Gutman version Pogner's is a linden & Sachs' a lilac. I reckon the Branscombe refers specifically to the way the Festival presented it & that the Gutman refers to what's called for in the original. Dunno. It seems like the symbolism cd be thrown off by such variations.
If I understand correctly, the basic story pre-existed Wagner's version of it. There're things I like about the story & things I don't - I don't know wch parts Wagner added. I imagine that he added the nationalist twists - esp Sachs' bit at the end. All in all, I found it fascinating enuf - the libretto strikes me as fairly long (my recording of the opera is on 5 records), over 3 hrs, &, if nothing else, I'm impressed by the magnitude of creating such a work - of writing the libretto, of composing the music, imagining the staging, etc.. PLUS, I didn't realize until recently that Wagner had even composed any comic operas - & that's wherein a large portion of my interest lay. ( )
