Brecht on Theatre is a seminal work that has remained the classic
text for readers and students wanting a rich appreciation of the
development of Brecht's thinking on theatre and aesthetics. First
published in 1964 and on reading lists ever since, it has now been
wholly revised, re-edited and expanded with additional texts,
illustrations and editorial material, and new translations. The
resulting work is a far fuller and more accurate volume that will
provide readers with a clearer and more rewarding understanding of
Brecht's work and writings. This updated third edition features: *
Clearer layout and organisation of the text to facilitate study *
New translations of many of the Brechtian texts featured * Over 40
new, previously untranslated essays * Essay titles now correspond
to the German originals * A revised selection of illustrations This
selection of Bertolt Brecht's critical writing charts the
development of his thinking on theatre and aesthetics over four
decades. The volume demonstrates how the theories of Epic Theatre
and Verfremdung evolved, and contains notes and essays on the
staging of The Threepenny Opera, Mahagonny, Mother Courage,
Puntila, Galileo and many others of his plays. Also included is
'Short Organon for the Theatre', Brecht's most complete statement
of his revolutionary philosophy of the theatre.
