Depicting characters in the play including Mrs Shin Wang Mrs Yang God and Shen Te. Some minor browning. In very good condition overall. "The Good Woman of Setzuan drama a "parable in 10 scenes" by Bertolt Brecht produced in 1943 and published in 1953 as Der gute Mensch von Sezuan. The title has many English-language variants including The Good Person of Szechwan and The Good Soul of Szechuan. "The play is set in China between World War I and World War II. The title character Shen Te is a poor but warmhearted prostitute. Because she alone was willing to shelter three gods they have favoured her with a gift of money. She purchases a tobacco shop but finds that her kinsfolk and other customers take advantage of her kindness. To save her business Shen Te adopts an alter ego; dressing as a man and acting the role of her tough pragmatic cousin Shui Ta she is able to exact just payment. She is forced to assume this role so often that as Shui Ta she is accused of murdering Shen Te. In the climactic trial scene Shui Ta reveals that he and Shen Te are the same person. Bertolt Brecht . was a German poet playwright and theatrical reformer whose epic theatre departed from the conventions of theatrical illusion and developed the drama as a social and ideological forum for leftist causes." Britannica Online "Coming of age during the Weimar Republic Brecht had his first successes as a playwright in Munich and moved to Berlin in 1924 where he wrote The Threepenny Opera with Elisabeth Hauptmann & Kurt Weill and began a life-long collaboration with the composer Hanns Eisler. Immersed in Marxist thought during this period he wrote didactic Lehrstücke and became a leading theoretician of epic theatre which he later preferred to call "dialectical theatre" and the Verfremdungseffekt. During the Nazi Germany period Brecht fled his home country first to Scandinavia and during World War II to the United States where he was surveilled by the FBI.3 After the war he was subpoenaed by the House Un-American Activities Committee. Returning to East Berlin after the war he established the theatre company Berliner Ensemble with his wife and long-time collaborator actress Helene Weigel."

Brecht's mistrust of the press imagery emerging from the Second World War led him to compose four-line poems which he juxtaposed with photographs sourced from newspapers and magazines many of which were from LIFE magazine as Brecht was living in the United States in exile from Nazi Germany. Broomberg & Chanarin concerned with the proliferation of imagery relating to the 'War on Terror' that began with 9/11 have taken copies of the 1998 first English edition of Brecht's War Primer as the starting point for this revised version. Keeping the original captions intact they have partially overlaid the original photographs selected by Brecht with contemporary imagery from both sides of the recent conflict drawn from online sources. The URL for each image is provided with a caption in a new set of notes screenprinted over the originals. Broomberg & Chanarin were awarded the 2013 Deutsche Börse Photography Prize for this work.

Zweiter Abdruck von "Tobiae leucomata Dissertatione Medica dilucidata. Quam Praeside Burc. David Mauchart. Defendus Carol. Dav. Precht Thailfingensis. Tubbingae 24. Maii anno 1743." Burchard David Mauchart "Professor der Chirurgie und Anatomie zu Tübingen war am 19. April 1696 zu Marbach in Württemberg geboren als Sohn des dortigen Physikus Dr. Johann David Mauchart erhielt in seiner Vaterstadt neben dem Schulunterricht noch Unterweisungen seines Vaters in der Botanik und Pharmakologie und von einem Chirurgen in der Chirurgie. Er besuchte dann noch ein Jahr lang das Gymnasium in Stuttgart und begab sich 1712 zum Studium der Medicin nach Tübingen wo Joh. Zeller Rud. Jac. und Elias Camerarius seine Lehrer in der Medicin waren. 1717 ging er nach Altorf um unter Heister Baier und Jantke seine Studien fortzusetzen darauf nach Straßburg und dann nach Paris wo er zwei Jahre blieb und sich vorzugsweise mit Anatomie und Chirurgie beschäftigte. 1722 wurde er in Tübingen Licentiat der Medicin darauf auch zum Hofmedicus des Herzogs von Württemberg ernannt und erhielt 1726 die ordentliche Professur der Anatomie und Chirurgie in Tübingen die er 1728 antrat worauf er im folgenden Jahre auch die Doctorwürde erlangte. Er blieb in seinem genannten Amte in Wirksamkeit bis zu seinem am 11. April 1751 erfolgten Tode. - Als Schriftsteller hat Mauchart nur eine Reihe von Dissertationen über 50 die größtentheils nach damaliger Sitte zur Doctorpromotion seiner Schüler verfaßt wurden so wie einige Journalaufsätze erscheinen lassen; dieselben beschäftigten sich mit den verschiedensten Gegenständen aus der Anatomie Medicin Chirurgie und Augenheilkunde.

Duplicated typescript printed rectos only. Prologue and 4 acts paginated individually. 6 20 17 9 12 pp. 1 vols. 4to. My station in life Is that of a clerk. But privately There are two things I love Surpassingly: Good wine And the women Of other men. Acting script of the Ethel van der Veer translation of a Chinese play Circle of Chalk which tells a tale of disputed inheritance discord and murder in the tenth century C.E. The play was first popularized in the west through a German translation by Klabund Alfred Henschke produced in Berlin in 1925 and also produced in London from a script by James Laver with Anna May Wong as the heroine. Independent of these productions Ethel van der Veer's translation was published in 1933. The Circle of Chalk must be counted as a key source for Bertholt Brecht's postwar drama Die Kaukasische Kreidekreis. The present text is uncredited but follows the van der Veer with the frequent addition of stage directions many of which now seem "Brechtian" in the way characters turn to face and often directly address the audience. unknown
