SYNOPSIS
Bertolt Brecht's extraordinary historical novel presents an aspiring scholar's efforts to write an idealized life of Julius Caesar twenty years after his death. But the historian abandons his planned biography, confronted by a baffling range of contradictory views. Was Caesar an opportunist, a permanently bankrupt businessman who became too big for the banks to allow him to fail - as his former banker claims? Did he stumble into power while trying to make money, as suggested by the diary of his former slave? Across these different versions of Caesar's career in the political and economic life of Rome, Brecht wryly contrasts the narratives of imperial progress with the reality of grasping self-interest, in a sly allegory that points to the Weimar Republic and perhaps even to our own times.
Brecht reminds his readers of the need for constant vigilance and critical suspicion towards the great figures of the past. In an echo of his dramatic theories, the audience is confronted with its own task of active interpretation rather than passive acceptance -- we have to work out our own views about Mr Julius Caesar. This edition is translated by Charles Osborne and features an introduction and editorial notes by Anthony Phelan and Tom Kuhn.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Bertolt Brecht
Bertolt Brecht (1898-1956)
Dramaturgo, poeta, romancista e ensaísta , nasceu em Augsburg, Alemanha, a 10 de fevereiro de 1898.
Em 1917 iniciou o curso de medicina em Munique, mas logo foi convocado pelo exército, indo trabalhar como enfermeiro num hospital militar. Aquele que se iria tornar uma das mais importantes figuras do teatro do século XX, cedo começou a escrever os seus primeiros poemas e cedo se rebelou contra os "falsos padrões" da arte e da vida burguesa, corroídas pela Primeira Guerra. Tal atitude reflete-se já na sua primeira peça, o drama expressionista "Baal", de 1918. Colabora com os diretores Max Reinhardt e Erwin Piscator. Em 1928, faz com Kurt Weill a "Ópera de Três Vinténs". Com a ascensão de Hitler, deixa o país em 1933, e exila-se em países como a Dinamarca e Estados Unidos da América, onde sobrevive à custa de trabalhos para Hollywood. Faz da crítica ao nazismo e à guerra tema de obras como "Mãe coragem e seus filhos" (1939). Dos Estados Unidos, vítima do macartismo, parte em 1947 para a Suíça onde redige o "Pequeno Organon", suma de sua teoria teatral. Volta à Alemanha em 1948, onde funda, no ano seguinte, em Berlim Leste, a companhia Berliner Ensemble.
Bertolt Brecht destacou-se também na poesia, de forte conteúdo social.
Morreu em Berlim, a 14 de agosto 1956.
