Distance and proximity

The Brecht Yearbook is a venue for discussion about aspects of theater and literature that were of particular interest to Bertolt Brecht, especially the politics of literature and the politics of theater in a global context. This volume features a dossier on writer-actor-director Manfred Karge (pictured left), unpublished documents from the Brecht Archive in Berlin, new research articles on Brecht, and reviews of recent books. Article topics include Brecht and Adorno in Los Angeles, Celan and Brecht, and transcultural aspects of epic theater.
