Bertolt Brecht: Angry Daemon Mask / Die Maske des Bösen
Noh mask ko-tobide, Momoyama period, c. 16th c.: photo by Gryffindor, 2006 (Museum für Ostasiatische Kunst, Berlin-Dahlem)
On my wall a Japanese carving hangs,
A blackgold lacquered Daemon mask.
Not unsympathetically I observe
The marks of strain upon the veins of the forehead, showing
How strenuous being furious is.
Stone mask, neolithic period, c. 7000 BC: photo by Gryffindor, 2009 (Musée de la Bible et de la Terre Sainte, Paris)
An meiner Wand hängt ein japonisches Holzwerk,
Maske eine bösen Dämons, bemalt mit Goldblack.
Mitfühlend sehe ich
Die geschwollenen Stirnadern, andeutend
Wie anstrengend es ist, böse zu sein.
