Пълно описание

In 1901, when Edward VII succeeded to the British throne, Bernard Shaw had not established himself with any firmness as either a moral revolutionary or a playwright. The next few years would be crucial. In this study of Shaw's public career from 1901 to 1910 Leon Hugo shows how Shaw confronted a highly conservative world and gradually overcame its opposition to become the dominant radical voice of the age. Aspects of Shaw's career are highlighted: his self-advertisement campaigns, his crusade against vaccination, his Fabian causes, his onslaughts on stage censorship and, above all, his progress as a playwright, particularly during the legendary Vedrenne-Barker seasons at the Royal Court Theatre - all conducted in the teeth of unremitting critical antagonism. By going to hitherto unused contemporary documents by Shaw and other writers, the author has opened up new and challenging perspectives on a perennially challenging subject.
