Abstract

Figure marquante du théâtre de langue anglaise, George Bernard Shaw suscite de nouveau l’intérêt en France après avoir été quelque peu oublié depuis sa mort. La désaffection passagère pour son théâtre s’expliquait sans doute par la prédominance d’un cliché qui voudrait qu’humour et futilité soient indissociables. Cet ouvrage, en offrant une série de regards croisés sur l’œuvre, tente de lever quelques malentendus, sans négliger la spécificité théâtrale de ses écrits. En outre, il donne indirectement la parole à l’auteur, dans son rôle de critique cette fois. Des comptes rendus, consacrés à Ibsen, Maeterlinck, Rostand ou Musset - qui furent publiés à l’origine dans la Saturday Review - permettront de situer George Bernard Shaw dans un domaine qui dépasse son œuvre dramatique personnelle, en montrant que sa contribution à l’histoire du théâtre passait également par un rôle essentiel, celui d’un critique éclairé qui vivait le théâtre avec passion.

Abstract

When 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 42 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.
