Bertolt Brecht
1948
Play
Drama
The title The Caucasian Chalk Circle is a reference to a Chinese Yuan dynasty play, The Chalk Circle, which inspired Brecht's work. Rather than a Chinese setting, Brecht's play takes place in a European setting, the Caucasus—a mountain region between the Black and Caspian Seas.
