"A
pleasant surprise [...] The excellent idea of this so-called
'cheapening', which in fact showed great respect to the great author,
his artistic intentions and ideologico-political position, is today an
interesting alternative (anti)proposal to the standard
pseudo-"respectful" stance, which actually cheapens Brecht's work,
distorts its character and abandons it, as if a plundered weapon, to
his ideological and artistic-aesthetic opponents." Spyros
