When George Bernard Shaw died in 1950, the world lost one of its
most well-known authors, a revolutionary who was as renowned for
his personality as he was for his humour, humanity, and rebellious
thinking. He remains a compelling figure who deserves attention not
only for how influential he was in his time, but for how relevant
he is to ours. This collection sets Shaw's life and achievements in
context, with forty-two scholarly essays devoted to subjects that
interested him and defined his work. Contributors explore a wide
range of themes, moving from factors that were formative in Shaw's
life, to the artistic work that made him most famous and the
institutions with which he worked, to the political and social
issues that consumed much of his attention, and, finally, to his
influence and reception. Presenting fresh material and arguments,
this collection will point to new directions of research for future
scholars.
