Mother Courage and Her Children: A Chronicle of the Thirty Years' War Brecht, Bertolt
New York Grove Press Inc. 1966 0-394-17106-3 / 9780394171067 Mass Mkt. P B Very Good
First produced in Zurich, Switzerland, in 1939, Bertolt Brecht' s Mother Courage and Her Children is considered by many to be among the playwright's best work and one of the most powerful anti-war dramas in history. The playis based on two works by Hans Jacob Christoffel von Grimmelshausen: his 1669 novel, Simplicissimus and his 1670 play, Courage: An Adventuress. Many critics believe Mother Courage to be the masterwork of Brecht's concept of Epic Theater. This dramatic subgenre, pioneered by Brecht sought to present theatre that could be viewed with complete detachment. Through such techniques as short, self-contained scenes that prevent cathartic climax, songs andcard slogans that interrupts and explains forthcoming action, and detachedacting that wards off audience identificationÑtechniques that came to be known as "alienation effects''Ñthe playwright sought to present a cerebral theatrical experience unmarred by emotional judgement. Brecht wanted audiences to think critically and objectively about the play's message, to assessthe effects of war on an empirical level.
