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

A Contemporary Shavian Manifesto presents an appraisal of George Bernard Shaw's position on women in his plays. The dramatist's unconventional approach itself is praiseworthy as he creates unwomanly women who are deviant and create their own space outside social conventions and practices. In creating a counterpoint to the norm, Shaw succeeds in creating the image of a "new woman" who is no longer "the angel of the house". The book explores the ways in which Shaw addresses gender inequality in society through an examination of women's role in the social, religious, moral and economic spheres. I

Abstract

Shaw's perspective is Bernard Shaw and his milieu. As "his life, work, and friends"—the subtitle to a biography of G.B.S.—indicates, it is impossible to study the life, thought, and work of a major literary figure in a vacuum. Issues and people, economics, politics, religion, theater, and literature and journalism—the entirety of the two half centuries the life of G.B.S. spanned—was his assumed province. Shaw publishes general articles on Shaw and his milieu, reviews, notes, and the authoritative Continuing Checklist of Shaviana, the bibliography of Shaw studies. Every other issue is devoted to a special theme.

Abstract

Using close readings of Shaw's plays and letters, as well as archival research, David Clare illustrates that Shaw regularly placed Irish, Irish Diasporic, and surrogate Irish characters into his plays in order to comment on Anglo-Irish relations and to explore the nature of Irishness.
