About Me
- Lorelei
- (The Lorelei Myth) The name Lorelei first appears in a romantic ballad written by the poet Clemens Brentano in 1801. In this ballad, Lorelei is a beauty from Bacharach who wants to take her own life because her truelove is unfaithful. The bishop, fascinated by her loveliness and humility, takes her to a convent. En route to the convent, she stops at the cliff to look back on the palace of her truelove. When she sees him riding away, she throws herself in despair into the turbulent waters below. In the Rhine fairytale of 1810, Brentano varied the theme so that Lorelei appears as a Mermaid sitting on the rocks combing her long golden hair and luring the men to their destruction.
