Der Fliegende Hollaender

A Norwegian brig is driven out of her course on the homeward voyage, and near the rockbound Norwegian Coast meets with the phantom ship of the "Flying Dutchman. " Daland, the captain of the Norwegian vessel, enters into a compact with the "Flying Dutchman " whose identity, however, is unknown to him, to give him a home and his daughter, Senta, for a wife, in consideration of the rich treasures stored away in the "Flying Dutchman ’s " ship.
