Both dramas are intensely religious, although Wagner spent most of his adult life as an atheist, or at best, an agnostic. A closer look at the characters in each opera presents Wagner?s favorite archetype, but their interactions and fates are not necessarily the same. Lohengrin, written at the beginning of Wagner?s professional career, and Parsifal, written in the last years of his life, exemplify the evolution of a personal philosophy."
