"GBS 1856 to 1950 In his own words, Shaw said he was a writing machine. He wrote 65 plays & was an avid pamphleteer writing on such subjects as Drama, Women & Feminism, Stimulants, Vivisection, Natural Selection, Music, Marriage, Capital Punishment, The Soviet Union. The list is almost endless. We have chosen 15 of these Subjects for you to collect, on Info Subject page. Shaw took an active role in the productions of his plays & made sure that not a single word was added or taken out. He was adamant about each vowel being pronounced correctly & not forced. Apart from writing, Shaw loved to speak on the radio. The musical Irish tones perfectly exubing his daring wit. What the audience perceived as a joke, Shaw actually meant. He used comedy as a way of translating what he seriously thought about society & it worked. People of all social classes stood up & took note, many of them taking an active role to improve the social structure. Bernard Shaw was a sensative man who looked upon poverty & social injustice in disbelief. To Shaw, all living things, human or animal were equals & should be treated with equal respect. In his world all humans (men & women), (rich & poor), were equals & have the right to bring out the best in themselves, no matter what class you were born into. Even so long after his death in 1950 at the age of 94,Shaw's influnce is still with us & his contribution making it's way in our society."
