| Summary, etc. |
"Few writers of the twentieth century have voiced the agonies and doubts of the age with imaginative intelligence, the esthetic precision or the dramatic power of Bertolt Brecht. His many plays and poems span the decades between the end of the First World War and the end of the Second — surely the most tragic years in modern history. Taken singly, they reflect a wide, at times enigmatic, spectrum of spirit and idea; taken as a complete oeuvre, however, they communicate the felt truth of their times. Brecht's most mature works, such as Mother Courage, exhibit a blend of tragedy and comedy, drama and philosophy, tenderness and sarcasm which is uniquely his own. And the influence of his theories of drama continues to determine the course of nearly all theatre produced today. Klaus Völker's biography, nearly a decade in preparation, is the definitive study of this central figure of the twentieth century. Where past biographers sacrificed accuracy to their own ideological concerns, Völker follows the objective, methodical, ultimately more telling approach of the sleuth: he unearths countless new facts about Brecht's life and uses them to re-evaluate many stereotypes which often have no basis in history." -- from the dust jacket. |
