Brecht is an important lyrical voice of the 20th century, and is honoured as Germany's greatest modern poet. Yet his poetry is relativley little known in the English speaking world. This title takes its cue from a poem about the artist's legacy and looks at how Brecht's work might read today.

Volume four of "Brecht's Collected Plays" contains works from the 1930s, straddling fateful years in German political and cultural history - as well as Brecht's own life. The plays included tackle the Nazi race policy and life under Hitler, the Spanish Civil War and pacifism.

Long in preparation, here are the essential poems and prose of one of the giants of 20th century world literature. Following an authoritative introduction by Reinhold Grimm, the volume includes German and English poems on facing pages.

Brecht's "Work Journals" cover the period from 1938 to 1955, the years of exile and his return to East Berlin. The accounts of his writing practice provide insight into the creation of his dramatic works, the development of his political thinking and his theories about epic theatre.

This volume contains new translations to extend our image of one of the twentieth century's most entertaining and thought provoking writers on culture, aesthetics and politics. Here are a cross-section of Brecht's wide-ranging thoughts which offer us an extraordinary window onto the concerns of a modern world in four decades of economic and political disorder. The book is designed to give wider access to the experience of a dynamic intellect, radically engaged with social, political and cultural processes. Each section begins with a short essay by the editors introducing and summarising Brecht's thought in the relevant year.

This volume brings together two of Brecht's most studied and performed plays: Life of Galileo and Mother Courage and Her Children together with full editorial apparatus and Brecht's own notes and textual variants.

Written between 1939-1942 "The Messingkauf Dialogues" are among the most concise, witty and light-hearted of all Brecht's theoretical discussions of theatre.

A terrifying series of short poems by one of the world's leading playwrights, set to images of World War IIIn this singular book written during World War Two, Bertolt Brecht presents a devastating visual and lyrical attack on war under modern capitalism. He takes photographs from newspapers and popular magazines, and adds short lapidary verses to each in a unique attempt to understand the truth of war using mass media. Pictures of catastrophic bombings, propaganda portraits of leading Nazis, scenes of unbearable tragedy on the battlefield all these images contribute to an anthology of horror, from which Brecht's perceptions are distilled in poems that are razor-sharp, angry and direct. The result is an outstanding literary memorial to World War Two and one of the most spontaneous, revealing and moving of Brecht's works.

An historic publication in which the legendary dramatist emerges, quite like Goethe, as a poet driven by Eros.
