TANNHAUSERIANA: Glasco -- Under the hill

Speranza

Aubrey Beardsley's original ends abruptly in the middle of Chapter X where Tannhäuser is still enjoying the hedonistic domain of Venus, but Glasco adds Chapters XI to XIX including Tannhäuser's withdrawal from the Hill of Venus, his pilgrimage to Rome, his audience of the pope URBANO IV and finally his return to Venus.
