註釋Bertolt Brecht is the most influential playwright of this century, and probably the greatest writer to emerge from the confused cultural milieu of Weimar Germany. Though he had only spasmodic success during his life, he has, since his death in 1956, been the subject of increasing study and acclaim. His plays are constantly being produced ; his verse is considered some of the best of his time. Yet the complex and interesting character behind this resonant literary voice has remained an enigma. Many books have been written about Brecht, but his is the first to put his political and theatrical ideas in the context of his personal experiences. Drawing on much unpublished material, as well as interviews with those who knew and worked with him, Ronald Hayman has produced a full and engaging appraisal of his life and work.
