# Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg (1868) becomes a public guild-opera later usable as national brand Date: 1868 ## The fact On 21 June 1868 Die Meistersinger premiered in Munich. This Fact stores the public national-art closing brief in the libretto, not a later party rally using the same opera. It is one event. ## Context A guild comedy can be humane and can end as a national sermon. Split 1868 music-access if scored elsewhere. [Richard Wagner](/people/richard-wagner)’s documented role is bounded by other offices and collaborators named in the sources below. Sharing a field with them is not a reason to drop a documented act, and it is not a reason to assign later consequences done in the name after death. 21 June 1868 Munich premiere. The work’s closing national address is in the libretto he wrote. Later regimes used it; that later use is not 1868. 1868 still publicises a German-art closing brief. Polarisation path of medium-high confidence on the text, without assigning 1933 staging to 1868. Named person as heading of the dated public instrument. Later editors, museums, printers, or offices share publication. Complex where later carriers date the row. ## Evidence and sources Stanford/opera libretto files and Britannica independently date 21 June 1868 and present the German-art ending as the composer’s text. Official or archival record: Stanford Opera — Wagner libretti and related texts (https://opera.stanford.edu/Wagner/; Stanford University). ## Significance A comic opera ending as national-art sermon is a polarisation path in 1868 prose-and-tone. Do not store Winifred’s staging as this night. A comic opera ending as national-art sermon is a polarisation path in 1868 prose-and-tone. ## What is established and what is not Established: 21 June 1868 premiere with Wagner’s libretto ending. Not established: that 1868 is a 1933 parade. What would change the picture: a contradictory original with a different date or name, or a measured series that can be argued, with lag and alternatives, as a consequence of this instrument rather than of later institutions. The date is the date of this instrument, not a licence to back-date every later harm or benefit. Established here: a sourced, dated public instrument with a named contribution by Richard Wagner. What would change the picture: a contradictory original with a different date, signatory, or non-occurrence; a demonstrated forgery; or a measured series that can be argued, with lag and alternatives, as a consequence of this instrument rather than of other causes. They are not a public rating. ## People - Richard Wagner: https://factrail.ai/people/richard-wagner ## Drivers - Political Polarization: https://factrail.ai/drivers/political-polarization ## Sources - https://opera.stanford.edu/Wagner/ - https://www.britannica.com/biography/Richard-Wagner-German-composer ## Methodology https://factrail.ai/methodology Canonical: https://factrail.ai/facts/wag-meistersinger-nation
