Description
Summary:The text discusses the reachof the Brecht's revolution concerning the Theater. According to Althusser, Brecht made a revolution in the theatrical practice, in the way to practice the theater, like Marx did with the philosophical practice. Such a revolution is, according to the author, a result of the knowledge that they both, Marx and Brecht, used to have about the nature and mechanisms of the Philosophy and the Theater, respectively. It would be still possible to say that Marx and Brecht broke with the mystified view which Philosophy and Theater used to keep about politics, by displacing the point of view of the speculative interpretation of the world (Philosophy) or of the culinary esthetic joy (Theater), to the politics.
