Bertolt Brecht continues to be regarded as one of the twentieth
century's most controversial and influential writers. His life and
work raise important questions about the nature and function of
literature and theater, about perception and commitment, about
feminist approaches to politics and literature, and about
intellectual property rights. The Brecht Yearbook is a venue for
discussion about aspects of theater and literature that were of
particular interest to Brecht, especially the politics of
literature and the politics of theater in a global context. This
volume includes a special section of five articles focused on
Bertolt Brecht and Georg Buchner, revolutionary playwright of an
earlier era. Also featured are articles and keynote addresses from
the International Brecht Society symposium held in Brazil in 2013,
under the theme "The Creative Spectator." New research on Brecht
and Puccini, Brechtand tragedy, and George Tabori's play Nathans
Tod rounds out the volume, along with reviews of recent books and
Jost Hermand's tribute to Werner Mittenzwei.
