Leben des Galilei von Bertolt Brecht: Lektüreschlüssel mit Inhaltsangabe, Interpretation

Reclam Lektüreschlüssel XL are the ideal aids for preparing for lessons, presentations, exams, and the Abitur – differentiated, comprehensive, and clear! They provide precise summaries to introduce the text, clear analyses of characters, structure, language, and style, reliable interpretations with concise textual evidence, information about the author and historical context, helpful infographics, illustrations, and tables, as well as current literature and media recommendations. Particularly useful elements include exam questions with solution hints and key terms and definitions as a learning glossary. In his treatment of the case of Galileo, Brecht intertwines historical material with questions from the 20th century: the issue of resistance in dictatorship is addressed, as is the difficult role of scientists in the age of world wars. The play exists in three markedly different versions, each sharpened to specific life situations and political constellations, which opens up a wide field for interpretation in schools and studies.
