Little Organum for the Theater : ウィキペディア英語版 | A Short Organum for the Theatre "A Short Organum for the Theatre" ("Kleines Organon für das Theater") is a theoretical work by the twentieth-century German theatre practitioner Bertolt Brecht.〔Brecht, Bertolt. 1949. "A Short Organum for the Theatre". ''Brecht on Theatre: The Development of an Aesthetic.'' Ed. and trans. John Willett. London: Methuen, 1964. ISBN 0-413-38800-X. pp. 179–205.〕 It was written while in Switzerland in 1948 and published in 1949.〔Willett, John. 1964. "Note". In ''Brecht on Theatre: The Development of an Aesthetic'' by Bertolt Brecht. London: Methuen, 1964. ISBN 0-413-38800-X. p.205.〕 In a diary note from the time he refers to it as a "short condensation of the 'Messingkauf'"; when it was re-published in 1953 he identified it as a "description of a theatre of the scientific age"; later still he augmented it with some appendices and linked it to his notes for a "dialectical theatre".〔 ==Against ''Poetics''==
Returning in the history of theater to the ''Poetics'' of Aristotle and taking as an example ancient tragedies and comedies, he rejects the idea of catharsis: "What liberation is this, given that at the end of all these plays, which worked happily only because of the spirit of their time (providence - the moral order), we live a dream-like execution that punishes exaltation as much as debaucheries?" Brecht here makes reference to the tragedies of Sophocles, and to the comedies and dramas of Shakespeare. He takes Oedipus as an example and mentions that there is still an interest in producing/performing it because such taboos still exist. He attacks the core of the ''Poetics'', that is, the finality of the tragedy. The critique that he made of the ''Poetics'' would become the center of his own poetics and of "Epic Theater".
