The thesis presents an historical survey of Brecht's poetry; close critical analysis of individual texts, including many not previously discussed, provides the basis for wider generalisation which enables the construction of a comprehensive study. Paraphrase, the explicit formulation of suggested readings, is the fundamental method of analysis. Reference to the historical dimension, and careful attention to Brecht's use of the ironic mode operate as controls. The thesis is divided chronologically into six chapters.
