description: 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.
