This volume brings together papers by scholars from Germany, the USA, France, England and Ireland given at the first International Feuchtwanger Conference, held in Los Angeles in 2003. Some of Lion Feuchtwanger’s novels from his exile in the United States are analyzed here, as are the lives of Lion and Marta Feuchtwanger and their contacts in the German émigré world in California. In addition, two papers focus on aspects of Bertolt Brecht’s and Alfred Döblin’s lives as emigrants in California. This volume is of interest to students of exile studies, of German refuge in the USA and of modern German literature.

An adolescent girl named Simone works at a gas station in central France. Her older brother is a soldier in the army, and the Wehrmacht forces are approaching. While engrossed in a book about Saint Joan, she slips into a series of dreams in which the real persons in her life take on other identities. Her brother appears as an angel, her boss as the coward Connetand, and herself as Saint Joan who helps starving refugees and defies her employer. In real life she sets fire to a secret supply of gasoline before the Germans can get to it. In her dream, she is captured and sentenced to death, but in real life she is not yet considered a saboteur. The Germans hand her over to the French as a mere arsonist, and she is led away by nuns to a mental institution.

The Austrian composer Hanns Eisler was Bertolt Brecht's closest friend and most politically committed collaborator. In these conversations with Hans Bunge which took place over a period of four years, from 1958 until his death in 1962, Eisler offers a compelling and absorbing account of his and Brecht's period of exile in Europe and the USA between 1933 and 1947, and of the quality of artistic, social and intellectual life in post-war East Germany. Brecht, Music and Culture includes a discussion of a number of Brecht's principal plays, including Life of Galileo and The Caucasian Chalk Circle, considers the place of music in Brecht's work and discusses the time that Brecht was brought before The House of Un-American Activities Committee. It includes lively accounts of Brecht's meetings with key cultural figures, including Arnold Schönberg, Charlie Chaplin and Thomas Mann, and offers throughout a sustained response to the question of the purpose of art in a time of political turmoil. Throughout the conversations, Eisler provides illuminating and original insights into Brecht's work and ideas and gives a highly entertaining first-hand account of his friend's personality and attitudes. First published in Germany in 1975, and now published in English for the first time, the conversations provide a fascinating account of the lives and work of two of the twentieth century's greatest artists.

Feuchtwanger, Brecht und das kalifornische Exil - der Roman einer ungewöhnlichen Freundschaft. Weltberühmt und wohlhabend, aber argwöhnisch beschattet von den Chargen der McCarthy-Ära, lebt Lion Feuchtwanger 1956 noch immer im kalifornischen Exil - der letzte der großen deutschen Emigranten. Als ihn an einem Augustmorgen die Nachricht vom plötzlichen Tod Bertolt Brechts erreicht, ist er tief erschüttert. Er hatte Brechts Genie entdeckt, hatte ihn gefördert, war ihm eng verbunden gewesen. In stummer Zwiesprache mit dem toten Freund ruft Feuchtwanger die Stationen dieser Freundschaft wach, ihren Beginn im München der Räterepublik, die literarischen Triumphe der Zwanzigerjahre, die Flucht und das Leben im Exil. Aus seinen Erinnerungen kristallisieren sich zugleich die Antriebsfedern des eigenen literarischen Schaffens heraus: die Trauer um die als Säugling verstorbene Tochter, seine Schuldgefühle und sein Ehrgeiz, die Traumata seiner Kindheit - und schließlich die Liebe und die Vergänglichkeit. Am Ende des Tages, als die Sonne im Stillen Ozean versinkt, ist der alte Feuchtwanger sich seiner Stärken und Schwächen hell bewusst und hat eine Bilanz des eigenen Lebens gezogen.
