"The epoch of an echo following so much writing on the Cold War and the actual war is gradually waning. Suddenly, our great departed are being reassessed and honored: Brecht and Arnold Zweig, Walter Felsenstein and Ernst Busch, Hanns Eisler and Paul Dessau ... The process we are undertaking here is one of renewed awareness. We are called upon to play an active and thankful role." (Hans Mayer)
