Götterdämmerung
' (; ''Twilight of the Gods''),〔The opera is sometimes called in English "Dusk of the Gods" or "Doom of the Gods", but "Twilight of the Gods" correctly translates the German title. ''Dämmerung'' can also mean "dawn" as the term is used for both the rising and setting of the sun. ''Götterdämmerung'' is itself a translation of ''ragnarökkr'', "Twilight of the Gods", as it is sometimes written in the ''Prose Edda''. In the older ''Poetic Edda'' only ''ragnarök'', "Fate of the Gods", is mentioned. It has been proposed that ''ragnarökkr'' was either a misconception on Snorri Sturluson's behalf or, more likely, poetic license as a play between the words ''rök'', "fate, doom", and ''rökkr'', "darkness, twilight."〕 WWV 86D, is the last in Richard Wagner's cycle of four operas titled ''Der Ring des Nibelungen'' (''The Ring of the Nibelung'', or ''The Ring'' for short). It received its premiere at the Bayreuth Festspielhaus on 17 August 1876, as part of the first complete performance of the ''Ring''.
The title is a translation into German of the Old Norse phrase ''Ragnarök'', which in Norse mythology refers to a prophesied war among various beings and gods that ultimately results in the burning, immersion in water, and renewal of the world. However, as with the rest of the ''Ring'', Wagner's account diverges significantly from his Old Norse sources.
