ENG 340 Studies in Individual Authors: George Bernard Shaw
In this half-course, we will study six plays or more by Shaw (1857-1950),
each of which provides a different answer to his recurring question: what
is wrong with civilization? Shaw's wit and satire make his frequently
disagreeable answers both provocative and entertaining. Texts will include
three major works, Man and Superman (1903), Heartbreak House
(1917), St. Joan (1923). This course is offered in the spring
semester.
