Was there a problem with Tristan that needed redeeming?

They show completely contradictory views on sex and love.

They're two different characters that in despite of the common medievalism perform in entirely different atmospheres. Unironically check out Schiller's Aesthetic Education of Man. Parsifal's naive, Tristan sentimental-- the latter's more in tune with modern times, the former's more the dramatization of a legitimate ideal.

Wagner cucked out and made Parzival an asexual, angelic creature when Parzival literally means pierce the veil, the symbol of phallic exploration par excellence.

Man you're a fucking retard, piercing the valley isn't a sexual connotation-- Wolfram hails him as a "pure fool", which Wagner believed was the older meaning of the name Percival, which is why Wagner changed it to "Parsifal".

>All this for mornings well spent on Parsifal. This is an Arabian name. The old troubadours no longer understood what it meant. "Parsi fal" means: "parsi"- think of the fire-loving Parsees - "pure"; "fal" means "mad" in a higher sense, in other words a man without erudition, but one of genius"

Also Parsifal wasn't asexual for Wagner, I don't know how you could see this.
