Bertolt Brecht's story of a journey is almost an equation in inequality. A is rich, B and C are poor. Therefore in no circumstances can B + C = A..... Brecht's liking for interior monologue in ballad form is evident, and the final scene is a bullet at the heart of injustice, even if it demands acceptance of the German playwright's inexorable social philosophy.
(piano)
In a series of seven programmes classical scholars and archaeologists examine the light thrown by increased archaeological and linguistic knowledge on the question of how fifth-century Greece developed those features that set it apart from earlier and contemporary civilisations.
