{"product_id":"brechts-poetry-of-political-exile-ronald-speirs-9780521782159","title":"Brecht's Poetry of Political Exile","description":"Bertolt Brecht, one of the most influential European playwrights of the twentieth century, was also a poet of distinction. This volume is the first comprehensive study devoted to his most important collection of political poetry, the Svendborg Poems. The contributors analyze Brecht's work critically and historically, discussing it in relation to questions of poetics, political commitment, exile, propaganda, rhetoric, and the scope and limitations of political poetry. Links are also drawn with the work of German, Soviet and English poets of the period, and with later German poets.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ronald Speirs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521782155\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521782159\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/02\/2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 270\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 5.80w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2001 pg. 1633","brand":"Ronald Speirs","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48065006665983,"sku":"9780521782159","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6e81c530-60fd-40a4-8492-d4fbcebe7095.jpg?v=1768672516","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/brechts-poetry-of-political-exile-ronald-speirs-9780521782159","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
