Summary
Volume 5 of Bertolt Brecht's Collected Plays presents some of his most influential works, exploring the trials of humanity through compelling historical and social dramas. This volume includes Life of Galileo, The Trial of Lucullus, and Mother Courage and Her Children—each a profound reflection on war, science, and the struggles of the common people. With a distinct Marxist viewpoint and the invention of epic theatre, Brecht challenges audiences to think critically about social justice, human conflict, and the moral complexities of power. Edited by Ralph Manheim and John Willett, this edition offers rich insights into Brecht's revolutionary theatrical techniques.
