Brecht As Director

TDR (1967), 1967
Much has been written about Brecht in this country, some—though not enough—of his theoretical writings have been translated, and most of his plays have been published in English. From all of this, people quite naturally get the idea that Brecht was primarily a poet and playwright ...

In the Expressionism debate of the 1930s, he firmly defended modem writing practices (key to which was the montage principle) against Lukics's skepticism and a critical Realism based on aesthetic categories derived from nineteenth-century writers, in particular from Balzac ...

Brecht's legacy

1994
For playwrights or theatre practitioners to have their names turned into adjectives is a somewhat dubious accolade that is rarely accorded: in the last hundred years we have acquired Chekhovian, Shavian, Stanislavskian, Artaudian, even Beckettian and Pinteresque, but not Reinhardtian, Piscatorian, Brookian or Genetesque.

Brecht in Eclipse?

The Drama Review, 1980
On March 4, 1953, Brecht noted in his journal: “Our performances in Berlin achieve hardly any response anymore.
