George Bernard Shaw George Bernard Shaw was a writer of great élan and perception who brought much colour and vivacity to contemporary life of the period. His writings were diverse and covered the fields of politics, religion, and literature. He was noted for his satire and verbal artistry, the controversy around him, his politics, and the persona of 'GBS'. He was an early and devoted member of the Fabian Society, joining it in September 1884, and he contributed to and edited the definitive Fabian Essays in Socialism (1889). He adopted a pragmatic and welfare-oriented approach to politics in which the concepts of right and faith were central to a progressive socialist realism seeking equality. He was a local government councillor in St.Pancras from 1897-1903.  He and the Webbs were to disagree over the School's purpose and its political neutrality. For Shaw the School should be explicitly collectivist in outlook and  teaching; for the Webbs, the School had one purpose: unbiased and objective study to discover the truth of the matter. The Webb perspective was to guide the School, and Shaw's political energies were absorbed elsewhere. Shaw first made his name as a music critic (1888-94) and by his dramatic criticism (1895-98). Post 1898, his reputation stems from his qualities as a playwright and the 'Shavian' style and themes he developed in his work throughout  his career. He is best remembered for his drama, plays like

Do not do unto others as you would they should do unto you. Their tastes may not be the same. Few people think more than two or three times a year. I have made an international reputation for myself by thinking once or twice a week. I never resist temptation, because I have found that things that are bad for me do not tempt me. I often quote myself, it adds spice to my conversation. Newspapers are unable, seemingly, to discriminate between a bicycle accident and the collapse of civilization. Self-sacrifice enables us to sacrifice other people without blushing. The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable man persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man. There are two tragedies in life. One is to lose your heart's desire. The other is to gain it.

July 26 ~  Creating Yourself Shaw's Plays "Life isn't about f i n d i n g yourself. L i f e is a b o u t creating yourself." ~ George Bernard Shaw Irish playwright and novelist George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950) was born on this day in Dublin and known for his barbed wit. "I often quote myself," he said. "It adds spice to my conversation." Self-taught because he disliked formal training, G.B.S. (he disliked his name "George," too) began as a London theatre critic, then wrote his first novel to further criticize the English stage. He explained his reason for action: "You don't learn to hold your own in the world by standing on guard, but by attacking and getting well-hammered yourself." His over over 52 plays and pamphlets among them, Candida Pygmalion (1912), and Saint Joan (1923)showcase memorable characters and brilliant insights: "If you are going to tell people the truth, you'd better make them laugh . Otherwise they'll kill you." Famous for mixing philosophy and humor, G.B.S. wrote most of his own work in shorthand. "A drama critic is a man who leaves no turn unstoned," he said. In 1925, Shaw won the

Shaw, George Bernard (1856-1950) Irischer Schriftsteller. Er gilt als bedeutendster britischer Dramatiker seit William Shakespeare Shaw war nicht nur als Bühnenautor enorm produktiv (50 Stücke), sondern trat auch als Verfasser politischer Streitschriften sowie als Musik- und Theaterkritiker hervor. Er führte außerdem eine umfangreiche literarische Korrespondenz. 1. Einleitung Shaw wurde am 26. Juli 1856 in Dublin geboren und wuchs in problematischen Familienverhältnissen auf. Seine Mutter verließ den alkoholsüchtigen Vater und übersiedelte mit ihren Kindern 1876 nach London . Das nächste Jahrzehnt war von beruflichen und finanziellen Schwierigkeiten geprägt. Shaw , der sich autodidaktisch fortbildete, versuchte auch als Schriftsteller und Musikkritiker Fuß zu fassen, blieb aber zunächst ohne Erfolg. Nur zwei der fünf Romane, die er zwischen 1879 und 1883 schrieb, fanden einen Verlag: "Cashel Byron's Profession" "Cashel Byrons Beruf" ) über das professionelle Preisboxen und "An Unsocial Socialist" "Ein unsozialer Sozialist" ).

Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man. If history repeats itself, and the unexpected always happens, how incapable must Man be of learning from experience. I never resist temptation, because I have found that things that are bad for me do not tempt me. You see things; and you say, "Why?" But I dream things that never were; and I say, "Why not?" To withhold deserved praise lest it should make its object conceited is as dishonest as to withhold payment of a just debt lest your creditor should spend the money badly. Success does not consist in never making mistakes but in never making the same one a second time. Just do what must be done. This may not be happiness, but it is greatness.
