Description

(Short description)
Studies in Modern German and Austrian Literature publishes research and scholarship devoted to German and Austrian literature of all forms and genres from the eighteenth century to the present day. The series promotes the analysis of intersections of literature with thought, society and other art forms, such as film, theatre, autobiography, music, painting, sculpture and performance art.
(Text)
This study analyzes the work of three prominent proletarian-revolutionary dramatists at the end of the Weimar Republic. The work of Bertolt Brecht, Friedrich Wolf, and Gustav von Wangenheim is looked at against the backdrop of debates among Marxist intellectuals and artists. Through a discussion of theatrical theory and close readings of individual plays, this work examines the authors' unique aesthetics and their enactment of a critical appropriation of the German literary heritage. It also investigates their attempts to transform the audience's relationship to the theatrical production from a passive-receptive to an active-critical one.
This volume offers insights into larger questions of political and cultural continuity that characterized the Weimar and the postwar periods.

Contents: The Aesthetic and Political Situation in the Weimar Republic - Bertolt Brecht: «Contradictions are our Hope!» - Friedrich Wolf: Empathy through Estrangement - Gustav von Wangenheim: «An Important, but Unknown Dramatist» - The Legacy of Proletarian-revolutionary Theater in the GDR.
