Bertolt Brecht, a theatre revolutionary, poet of the state, outsider, looks back on his life in 1956, the year of his death, in East Berlin: from provocations in the Augsburg of the First World War, to the early poetic and amorous height flights in Munich and Berlin in the 1920s, his escape from Hitler and US exile, followed by his later years caught in a dilemma between timeless classic and a failing GDR class fighter, an inflexible free man and a compromised Artist. 　　译文(2): 剧场革命家、国家诗人、局外人贝托尔特?布莱希特(Bertolt Brecht)回顾自己1956年在东柏林逝世的一生: 从第一次世界大战在奥格斯堡的挑衅，到二十世纪二十年代早期在慕尼黑和柏林诗意而多情的高空飞行，他逃离了希特勒和美国的流亡，随后几年陷入两难境地，一个是永恒的经典，一个是失败的民主德国阶级斗士，一个是顽固的自由人，一个是妥协的艺术家。
