Описание: Can theatre change the world? If so, how can it productively connect with social reality and foster spectatorial critique and engagement? This open access book examines the forms and functions of political drama in what has been described as a post-Marxist, post-ideological, even post-political moment. It argues that Bertolt Brecht’s concept of dialectical theatre represents a privileged theoretical and dramaturgical method on the contemporary British stage as well as a valuable lens for understanding 21st-century theatre in Britain. Establishing a creative philosophical dialogue between Brecht, Walter Benjamin, Theodor W. Adorno and Jacques Ranciere, the study analyses seminal works by five influential contemporary playwrights, ranging from Mark Ravenhill’s ‘in-yer-face’ plays to Caryl Churchill’s 21st century theatrical experiments. Engaging critically with Brecht’s theatrical legacy, these plays create a politically progressive form of drama which emphasises notions of negativity, ambivalence and conflict as a prerequisite for spectatorial engagement and emancipation. This book adopts an interdisciplinary and intercultural theoretical approach, reuniting English and German perspectives and innovatively weaving together a variety of theoretical strands to offer fresh insights on Brecht’s legacy, on British theatre history and on the selected plays.The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com.

Описание: Bertolt Brecht in Context examines Brecht`s significance and contributions as a writer and the most influential playwright of the twentieth century, along with his continued impact on theater around the world. It also examines Brecht`s contributions to revolutionary thought and to poetry and his response to twentieth-century German history.
Brecht was never inclined to see any of his plays as completely finished, and this volume collects some of the most important theatrical projects and fragments that were always to remain 'works in progress'. Offering an invaluable insight into the writer's working methods and practices, the collection features the famous Fatzer as well as The Bread Store and Judith of Shimoda, along with other texts that have never before been available in English. Alongside the familiar, 'completed' plays, Brecht worked on many ideas and plans which he never managed to work up even once for print or stage. In pieces like Fleischhacker, Garbe/B sching and Jacob Trotalong we see how such projects were abandoned or interrupted or became proving grounds for ideas and techniques. The works collated here span over thirty years and allow the reader to follow Brecht's creative process as he constantly revised his work to engage with new contexts.
This treasure-trove of new discoveries is also annotated with dramaturgical notes to present readable and useable texts for the theatre.
The volume is edited by Tom Kuhn and Charlotte Ryland, with the translation and dramaturgical edition of each play provided by a team of experienced writers, scholars and translators.

Описание:

His work continues to have a significant impact on performance practitioners, critics and teachers alike. Now revised and reissued, this book combines:
an overview of the key periods in Brecht's life and work
a clear explanation of his key theories, including the renowned ideas of Gestus and Verfremdung
an account of his groundbreaking 1954 production of The Caucasian Chalk Circle
an in-depth analysis of his practical exercises and rehearsal methods.
As a first step towards critical understanding, and as an initial exploration before going on to further, primary research, Routledge Performance Practitionersare an invaluable resource for students and scholars.

Описание: This book makes the case for Bertolt Brecht’s continued importance at a time when events of the 21st century cry out for a studied means of producing theatre for social change. Here is a unique step-by-step process for realizing Brecht’s ways of working onstage using the 2015 Texas Tech University production of Brecht’s Mother Courage and Her Children as a model for exploration. Particular Brecht concepts—the epic, Verfremdung, the Fabel, gestus, historicization, literarization, the “Not…but,” Arrangement, and the Separation of the Elements—are explained and applied to scenes and plays. Brecht’s complicated relationship with Konstantin Stanislavsky is also explored in relation to their separate views on acting. For theatrical practitioners and educators, this volume is a record of pedagogical engagement, an empirical study of Brecht’s work in performance at a higher institution of learning using graduate and undergraduate students.

Описание: Examiningthe ways in which contemporary Western theatre protests against the ‘War onTerror’, this book analyses six twenty-first century plays that respond to thepost-9/11 military operations in Afghanistan, Iraq and Palestine. The plays arewritten by some of the most significant writers of this century and the lastincluding Elfriede Jelinek, Caryl Churchill, H?l?ne Cixous andTony Kushner.Anti-war Theatre After Brecht grapples with theproblem of how to make theatre that protests the policies of democraticallyelected Western governments in a post-Marxist era. It shows how the Internethas become a key tool for disseminating anti-war play texts and how onlinesocial media forums are changing traditional dramatic aesthetics and broadeningopportunities for spectator access, engagement and interaction with a work andthe political alternatives it puts forward.
With over 80 scholarly articles, reviews, and critical interventions from the last 50 years, Bertolt Brecht: Critical and Primary Sources set covers the key periods of Brecht's life, from his time in Augsburg (1898-1918) through the Weimer Republic (1918-1933), exile (1933-1948) and the German Democratic Republic (1949-1956). It also explores his theories, fundamentally his belief in the theatre's ability to represent and change the world, core practices and relationships.
Alongside primary sources that include writings by Brecht published in English for the first time, such as his short but important reflection in 'originality' in theatre production, key featured scholars include Fredric Jameson and his essay 'Episch, or, the Third Person', and pieces on Brecht's collaborative working methods by Claus and Wera K chenmeister, and the director Egon Monk. Volume 1 covers Brecht's life and work, including essays on his famous Mother Courage and Her Children, production reviews, poetry, novels and short stories, with some thoughts on his journals. Volume 2 covers theory, containing essays and primary writings on Brechtian terminology, and some of the more enigmatic terms like 'Epic theatre', 'Verfremdung', 'Gestus' and 'Fabel', features a survey of important theoretical works, a section on Brecht on non-theatre media, his relationship to other major thinkers, ideas and sources and the reception of his ideas. Volume 3 covers practice, including Brecht's practice as documenter and director, beginning with his disastrous start in the Weimar Republic through to his later role as director as the Berliner Ensemble, his relationships with other practitioners and his own collaborators, reviews of important productions and global receptions. Each volume includes a contextualizing introduction surveying the topics covered and the development of scholarship on Brecht.

Описание: Bertolt Brecht's reputation as a flawed, irrelevant or difficult thinker for the theatre can often go before him to such an extent that we run the risk of forgetting the achievements that made him and his company, the Berliner Ensemble, famous around the world.
David Barnett examines both Brecht the theorist and Brecht the practitioner to reveal the complementary relationship between the two.This book aims to sensitize the reader to the approaches Brecht took to the world and the stage with a view to revealing just how carefully he thought about and realized his vision of a politicized, interventionist theatre. What emerges is a nuanced understanding of his concepts, his work with actors and his approaches to directing. The reader is encouraged to engage with Brecht's method that sought to 'make theatre politically' in order to locate the innovations he introduced into his stagecraft. There are many examples given of how Brecht's ideas can be staged, and the final chapter takes two very different plays and asks how a Brechtian approach can enliven and illuminate their production. Ultimately, the book invites readers, students and theatre-makers to discover new ways of apprehending and making use of Brecht.
