The Caucasian Chalk Circle de Tom Kuhn

The Caucasian Chalk Circle: Modern Plays

Editat de Tom Kuhn Autor Bertolt Brecht Traducere de Frank McGuinness
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 23 ian 2007
A morality masterpiece, The Caucasian Chalk Circle powerfully demonstrates Brecht's pioneering theatrical techniques. This version by Frank McGuinness was published to coincide with the National Theatre's production which toured the UK in 2007.

A servant girl sacrifices everything to protect a child abandoned in the heat of civil war. Order restored, she is made to confront the boy's biological mother in a legal contest over who deserves to keep him. The comical judge calls on an ancient tradition - the chalk circle - to resolve the dispute. Who wins?

This version by Frank McGuinness was first presented by the National Theatre in 1997 and revived in 2007, opening at the Gulbenkian Theatre, Canterbury, on 8 January.

Eric Bentley, one of the foremost authorities on the modern theatre, is a recognized playwright, critic and scholar, and a longtime intimate of Brecht. His most recent book is Bentley on Brecht.

Recenzii

'an adept new translation by Alistair Beaton'
'The Caucasian Chalk Circle, written in 1944 while he was in exile from Germany, gives some epic illumination to socialist ideas about ownership and injustice. But more than that it's a story about love winning out over endemic corruption'
The play is translated, with political wit and crisp clarity, by Alistair Beaton . . . The result is a Chalk Circle which makes an unarguable case for the continued relevance both of Brecht's theatrical aesthetics and his allegorical subject matter.
Alistair Beaton's sharp rhythmic translation finds a contemporary relevance too, but not intrusively so.
