Bertolt Brecht's dramatic theory
White, John J.,
Rochester, N.Y. : Camden House, 2004
"Bertolt Brecht's Dramatic Theory is the first detailed study in English of Bertolt Brecht's writings on the theater to take into account the substantial new material first made available in the recent German edition of his collected works. It offers in-depth analyses of Brecht's canonical essays on the theater, ranging from his notes of 1930 on the innovative opera Mahagonny to the unfinished Messingkauf project of the late 1940s and early GDR years. Close readings of the individual essays are supplemented by surveys of the connotations and changing status within Brecht's dramaturgical oeuvre of key theoretical terms, including epic and anti-Aristotelian theater, de-familiarization, historicization, and dialectical theater."--BOOK JACKET.
