A new collection of Shaw's major political writings presents an
opportunity to reflect on his influential role as a public
intellectual. At the forefront of economic and political debate
from the 1880s to the 1950s, George Bernard Shaw was once the most
widely read socialist writer in the English language, and his
lifelong crusade against inequality and exploitation is far from
irrelevant today. The thorough interpenetration of Shaw's literary
and political engagements is an unusual story in modern literature,
and this volume offers a portrait of Shaw as a political artist in
the purest possible sense: that is, as a writer of essays,
articles, pamphlets, and books with explicitly and expressly
political aims. The selected writings in this volume showcase
Shaw's most influential and most accomplished political work, but
also provide a cross-section that is representative of the whole of
his long career. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford
World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature
from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's
commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a
wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions
by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text,
up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.
