Wednesday, 2.2.2011

Today in class after an excellent report by Anneliese on Germany History 1918-1933 there was a short discussion of chapter 2 of “The Caucasian Chalk Circle.” 
The main point of the discussion seemed to be that the action depicted in the play could take place almost anywhere and anytime in history.  It was a time of war and social unrest.  It was a time of upheaval and fighting in the streets.  When I got after class, the first image that popped up on my computer showed today’s unrest in Egypt:

This could be right out of Scene 2 of CCC.  All they need is some pretty music.
So check it out!  Here is some music:
