Generally, the main themes are corruption, vice (or sin),
and redemption. These are themes that can be linked to human behavior generally and to
specific characters' behavior. But overall, Brecht is also exploring ideas of love and
loyalty, as well as the gullibility of men and women in love. Also, anti-heroism is a
string theme: Macheath is a sort of anti-hero; he treats women badly but is charming and
charismatic.
