The Brecht Yearbook, published by Camden House on behalf of the International Brecht Society, is the central scholarly forum for the study of Brecht's life and work and of topics relevant to him.
Volume 49 features the proceedings of the 17th IBS Symposium, which took place at the universities of Tel Aviv, Haifa, and Jerusalem in December 2022 under the motto "Bertolt Brecht in Dark Times: Racism, Political Oppression, and Dictatorship." It contains three thematic sections: "Brecht's Work in Israeli and Palestinian Contexts," "Brecht and Becoming, Futurity, and Thanatopolitics," and "(Anti-) Heroism and Resistance in Dark Times." The contributions discuss artists and theater companies who have engaged with Brecht's work or can be associated with it under these thematic aspects, including David Avidan, the Habima National Theater, Jindřich Honzl, the Jenin Freedom Theater, Ghassan Kanafani, Tetsuo Kogawa, Yosef Milo, Omri Nitzan, Manuel Chaves Nogales, the Ohel Theater, the Prague Liberated Theater, Samìh al-Qāsim, Johan Taub, Jiři Voskovec, Günther Weisenborn, Jan Werich, and Arnold Zweig.
