Social and Political Views in selected Plays of George Bernard Shaw.

Abstract

Although the first profitable writings of George Bernard Shaw (18-56-1950) was music and literary criticism but his talent was for drama. He authored more than sixty plays, which deal with different problems and ideas. He examined marriage, government, class privilege, and equal rights for men and women, etc. Shaw as a dramatist continued to write, not propaganda or pamphlet, but plays. He remained fundamentally an artist to the end of his life. As an artist he aimed at rendering the social and political systems as he saw them, not as he would like to see them .Reading his purpose as a playwright, Shaw once made this statement.
