4.0 out of 5 stars The proof of the pudding is in the reading., May 11, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: The Cambridge Companion to Brecht (Cambridge Companions to Literature) (Paperback)
The problem with delivering Brecht to an English student audience is the fact that he is such a man of his time, culturally and historically, that the first few lectures end up being as much about 'Sturm und Drang', the Weimer republic and the rise of fascism, as they do about any theory by our Bertie. This wonderfully concise and pragmatic guide has been a real find. Dealing with the magor Brechtian themes and theories in a way that applies them both practically and with due reference to their historical/cultural significance. A real 'must buy' for students and teachers of drama!
