تعریف و معنای "Brechtian technique"

What is the "Brechtian technique"?

The Brechtian technique, created by Bertolt Brecht, is a theatrical approach that aims to encourage audiences to think critically about social and political issues by breaking the illusion of reality on stage. This style, known as Epic Theater, uses techniques such as direct address to the audience, visible stage machinery, and actors stepping out of character to comment on the action. By presenting the story in a non-linear or episodic manner and emphasizing the social and historical context, the Brechtian technique seeks to keep the audience intellectually engaged rather than emotionally absorbed, prompting them to question and reflect on the issues being portrayed.
