German Life and Letters, Volume 73, Issue 4, Page 541-563, October 2020., 2020 Abstract This article argues that Richard Wagner's opera Der fliegende Holländer, which may seem representative of the death drive, is essentially concerned with birth. As Slavoj Žižek has suggested, the opera bears striking parallels to Freud's Jenseits des Lustprinzips (1920).
