See all formats and editions

Bertolt Brecht's life as a dramatist, poet and polemicist has inspired writers from all over the world.

This anthology, published to mark the fiftieth anniversary of his death in August 1956, brings together English translations of poems by German poets who have responded to his remarkable legacy.

The poems demonstrate how Brecht's concerns and his unique diction have become a part of the very stuff of modern poetry.

This work includes poems by Wolf Biermann, Hans Magnus Enzensberger, Paul Celan, Peter Huchel and Heinrich Boll.

It also includes translations by David Constantine, Ian Fairley, Michael Hamburger, Michael Hofmann and Karen Leeder.
