| 520 | _a"Hero Tales and Legends of the Rhine" by Lewis Spence is a collection of folklore and legends written in the early 20th century. The book explores the rich tapestry of stories surrounding the Rhine River, which holds a significant place in German culture and national identity. The author's goal is to present these tales with a sense of romanticism and depth, illustrating the connection between the legendary and the historical aspects of the region. The opening of the work begins with an introduction that sets the stage for the exploration of the Rhine's historical and folkloric significance. It acknowledges the abundance of existing literature on the Rhine but critiques it for lacking critical depth. Spence emphasizes that his collection aims to convey the "mysterious glamour" of the legends while also providing a historical overview to frame them. He mentions that the tales will be arranged thematically to accompany readers on a journey along the Rhine, enriching their understanding of various localities and their associated legends as they travel through the region. The beginning also highlights a specific legend about the sunken city of Stavoren, a cautionary tale about wealth, pride, and the true treasures of life, effectively illustrating Spence's intent to weave morality into the fabric of Rhine legends.
