A collection of five plays, and four short pieces for practicing the alienation effect. Two of the pieces were much shorter than the others, and appeared to be played together, as they told the same story from two different points of view. The Hitler allegory was quite obvious. There is a lot to like about Brecht, even though his plays run from long to very long, and that can make them a difficult sell for the American stage. ( ) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
Volume Four of Brecht's Collected Plays contains works from the 1930s.'Round Heads and Pointed Heads, based on Shakespeare's Measure for Measure, is a powerful political allegory on Nazi racial policy and conditions in Germany. Fear and Misery of the Third Reich creates a montage of some thirty short scenes, showing ordinary life under the Nazis permeated by suspicion and anxiety. Senora Carrar's Rifles is based on J.M. Synge's Riders to the Sea, relocated by Brecht in the Spanish Civil War. The Trial of Lucullus, a radio play, is a starkly poetic pacifist text, in which the Roman general is tried by the Underworld for his military triumphs. Also included are two one-act plays, Dansen and How Much Is Your Iron? The volume includes an introduction and notes by Tom Kuhn and John Willett as well as variants and additional relevant texts by Brecht. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
