| Summary, etc. |
"This book attempts to be [...] a factual, yet critical, study of Brecht's artistic personality. It is not primarily a biography. [...] Brecht's importance transcends his significance as a dramatist, poet, or amusing personality. He is above all an epitome of his times. Most of the crosscurrents and contradictions, moral and political dilemmas, artistic and literary trends of our time are focused and exemplified in Brecht's life and its vicissitudes. Through his commitment to a political cause, through his participation in the struggles of pre-Hitler Germany, his experience as an exiled writer in Europe and America, and his plunge back in to the drab but fascinating half-light of East Berlin, Brecht was more deeply involved in the conflicts of his age than most of his contemporaries." -- from the introduction. |
