Bernard Shaw: a Brief Biography Cary M. Mazer, University of Pennsylvania Guest Dramaturg G. Bernard Shaw (he hated the "George" and never used it, either personally or professionally) was born in 1856 in Dublin, in a lower-middle class family of Scottish-Protestant ancestry. His father was a failed corn-merchant, with a drinking problem and a squint (which Oscar Wilde's father, a leading Dublin surgeon, tried unsuccessfully to correct); his mother was a professional singer, the sole disciple of Vandeleur Lee, a voice teacher claiming to have a unique and original approach to singing. When Shaw was just short of his sixteenth birthday, his mother left her husband and son and moved with Vandeleur Lee to London, where the two set up a household, along with Shaw's older sister Lucy (who later became a successful music hall singer). Shaw remained in Dublin with his father, completing his schooling (which he hated passionately), and working as a clerk for an estate office (which he hated just as much as school). It may not be a accidental, then, that Shaw's plays, including

51. Shaw Alphabet Links The shaw (Shavian) Alphabet for English was created about 1961 as required by the will of the playwright george bernard shaw. http://members.aol.com/RSRICHMOND/shavian.html

Shaw Alphabet Links When George Bernard Shaw died in 1950, his will provided for the development of a new alphabet for the English language, an alphabet of at least forty letters that could be used to write English without all the oddities of our traditional spelling. I have written an introduction to the Shaw Alphabet, if you are not yet familiar with it. The Shaw Alphabet font was designed by Kingsley Read in England in the early 1960's. His life's work as a typographer is archived at the University of Reading in England. Kingsley Read rapidly moved beyond the Shaw Alphabet to develop Quickscript , an extensive modification of the Shaw Alphabet which languished in even greater obscurity than did the Shaw Alphabet itself. Ross DeMeyere, a professional typographer, designed the Androcles and Ghoti fonts, which were earlier named ShawRough and ShawGothic. This graphic shows you the Shaw Alphabet in his ShawRough font. I recommend you download the Androcles and Ghoti fonts from his Web site. All Shaw alphabet texts in this Web site (the parts that I've updated, anyway) are set to display in ShawGothic, ShawRough, Androcles, Ghoti, and Lionspaw. (Look at the HTML code for this page to see how to do this.) Unicode is a proposed standard for managing all the world's writing systems on the Web, including Chinese and all the different alphabets of India. A

Evaluation I Introduction Print Preview of Section Shaw, George Bernard (1856-1950), Irish-born writer, considered the most significant British dramatist since William Shakespeare . His plays are essentially brilliant dialogues on such topics as religion, politics, money, science, marriage, and art. Although regarded as comedies, the plays represent a serious effort to influence the ideas and attitudes of the audience. Often, conventional ideas are inverted or twisted to shock the public into a fresh awareness. Despite his emphasis on ideas, Shaw created probably the most memorable collection of dramatic characters since the 17th century. In addition to being a prolific playwright (he wrote 50 stage plays), Shaw is regarded as the most readable music critic and best theater critic of his generation. He was also one of literature’s great letter writers.

Evaluation V Man and Superman Print Preview of Section Shaw’s next work, Man and Superman (1905), transformed the Don Juan legend into a play, and play-within-a-play. Although on the surface it was a comedy of manners about love and money, its action gave Shaw the opportunity to explore intellectual currents of the time in a series of discussions. These discussions form the substance of the third act, “Don Juan in Hell,” a dream sequence that has often been produced independently. In this play within the play, the conventional notion of heaven is turned into hell. The devil argues for this escape from life’s woes, while Don Juan presents reasons for improving life on Earth. Man and Superman is subtitled “A Comedy and a Philosophy,” and it reverses the standard notion of Don Juan, the seducer of women. In Shaw’s play, Don Juan becomes a man of virtue who is assailed by predatory women. The play tackles one of Shaw’s favorite themes, the life force, or the creative force of intelligence that he believed would, through evolution, bring about a higher type of human being. Women pursue Don Juan because they think he would father superior children. They are motivated by a desire to improve the human species.

58. History Of Vegetarianism - George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950) A large collection of articles about the development of vegetarianism around the world for thousands of years. http://www.ivu.org/history/shaw/

International Vegetarian Union History of Vegetarianism George Bernard Shaw From the archives of The Vegetarian Society UK: The Summer of 1946 seems to have been a season of anniversaries and memorials. The Vegetarian Society itself was looking forward to its 100th anniversary and giving its members advance warnings of celebratory plans. But the big story of the July issue of The Vegetarian Messenger was the tribute to George Bernard Shaw, celebrating his 90th birthday on the 26th of that month. He had, at that time, been a vegetarian for 66 years and was commended as one of the great thinkers and dramatists of his era. "No writer since Shakespearean times has produced such a wealth of dramatic literature, so superb in expression, so deep in thought and with such dramatic possibilities as Shaw." The writer was a staunch vegetarian, anti-vivisectionist and opponent of cruel sports.

Library Bernard Shaw Online Dictionary Spelling Center Bernard Shaw George Bernard Shaw was born in Dublin, Ireland, where he grew up in something close to genteel poverty. "I am a typical Irishman; my family came from Yorkshire," Shaw once said. His father, George Carr Shaw, was in the wholesale grain trade. Lucinda Elisabeth (Gurly) Shaw, his mother, was the daughter of an impoverished landowner. She was sixteen years younger than her husband. George Carr was a drunkard - his example prompted his son to become a teetotaler. When he died in 1885, his children and wife did not attend his funeral. Young Shaw and his two sisters were brought up mostly by servants. Shaw's mother eventually left the family at home to teach music and singing in London. In 1866 the family moved to a better neighborhood. Shaw went to the Wesleyan Connexional School, and then moved to a private school near Dalkey, and from there to Dublin's Central Model School. Shaw finished his formal education at the Dublin English Scientific and Commercial Day School. At the age of fifteen, he started to work as a junior clerk. In 1876 he went to London, joining his sister and mother. Shaw did not return to Ireland for nearly thirty years. During the next two years Shaw educated himself at the British Museum. He began his literary career by writing music, drama criticism, and novels, including the semi-autobiographical
