Exhibiting Reforms in the Drama of Bernard Shaw

ENGLISH

Shaw’s development towards the full-blown myth of creative evolution during his life. Shaw’s own religious and philosophical development and also considers that of his contemporaries and a review of the literary context in which Shaw’s plays were written. Shaw’s philosophical religious ideas appear are critically examined especially by comparing the relationship of each character to the main action of the play and to the main theme or idea of the play. Shaw dramatizes the purpose of the life force, in order to make clear what humanity can do to aid its progress. This is because the life force is the central fact of Shaw’s creative evolution. The life force provides the impetus for evolutionary progress as the basic structural element of Shaw’s plays.
