This updated Companion offers students crucial guidance on
virtually every aspect of the work of this complex and
controversial writer. It brings together the contrasting views of
major critics and active practitioners, and this edition introduces
more voices and themes. The opening essays place Brecht's creative
work in its historical and biographical context and are followed by
chapters on single texts, from The Threepenny Opera to The
Caucasian Chalk Circle, on some early plays and on the Lehrstucke.
Other essays analyse Brecht's directing, his poetry, his interest
in music and his work with actors. This revised edition also
contains additional essays on his early experience of cabaret, his
significance in the development of film theory and his unique
approach to dramaturgy. A detailed calendar of Brecht's life and
work and a selective bibliography of English criticism complete
this provocative overview of a writer who constantly aimed to
provoke.
