Published for the first time in English, Brecht's Me-Ti tells of the 'Master Me-Ti' and his wisdom. Composed of short stories, aphorisms and anecdotal sketches, it is Brecht's compendium of Chinese philosophy and commentary on contemporary political events and people. Often light and humorous in tone, the work is central to an understanding of Brecht's critical reflections on Marxist dialectics and his orientally informed fascination with flow and flux, change and the non-eternal which informs much of his writing. Readers will find themselves both fascinated and beguiled by the reflections and wisdom it offers.
