Published by Methuen Drama, the collected dramatic works of Bertolt
Brecht are presented in the most comprehensive and authoritative
editions of Brecht's plays in the English language. The seventh
volume of Brecht's Collected Plays contains the plays which Brecht
wrote during his six-year stay in the United States from 1942 to
1948. The Visions of Simone Machard is a French resistance version
of the Joan of Arc story. Schweyk in the Second World War
transposes Hasek's 'good soldier' to the Prague of Hitler and
Heydrich. The Caucasian Chalk Circle, based on the biblical story
of the judgement of Solomon, was originally written for production
on Broadway, with W. H. Auden responsible for the verse. A morality
masterpiece, the play powerfully demonstrates Brecht's pioneering
theatrical techniques and has since become one of his most popular
works. The translations are ideal for both study and performance.
The volume is accompanied by a full introduction and notes by the
series editor John Willett and includes Brecht's own notes and
relevant texts as well as all the important textual variants.
