"As a playwright, poet, and intellectual, Bertolt Brecht experienced and helped shape the most tumultuous period of modern European history. He witnessed the collapse of the nineteenth-century world of imperial Germany in the catastrophe of World War I, the cultural ferment of the Weimar Republic to which he himself made fundamental contributions, the defeat of German democracy and the rise of the Nazi dictatorship, World War II, and ultimately the Cold War and the division of Europe. Brecht also went into exile in Denmark, Sweden, Finland, the United States, and Switzerland between 1933 and 1948"--
