Uploaded by : Essays-Now.com

4 pages in length. The duality of Brecht's work - entertaining yet also provocative and enlightening - provides more for his audience to contemplate than the mere folly of a good story. Brecht seeks to evoke reflection within his audience so they go away with the nagging sense that they have just been given a glimpse of some moral contingent they otherwise may not have realized. In short, Brecht's objective is for his audience to empower their understanding of human nature and the social, political and cultural conflicts of being human and the steps people take - good, bad or otherwise - to survive.
