Book excerpt: Marriage, as the knot in question, is exemplified by the union of Marian Lind, a lady of the upper class, to Edward Conolly, always a workman but now a magnate, thanks to his invention of an electric motor that makes steam engines obsolete. The marriage soon deteriorates, primarily because Marian fails to rise above the preconceptions and limitations of her social class and is, therefore, unable to share her husband's interests. Eventually she runs away with a man who is her social peer, but he proves himself a scoundrel and abandons her in desperate circumstances. Her husband rescues her and offers to take her back, but she pridefully refuses, convinced she is unworthy and certain that she faces life as a pariah to her family and friends.

Download or read book The Irrational Knot (Esprios Classics) written by George Bernard Shaw and published by Blurb. This book was released on 2021-08-13 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950) was an Irish playwright, critic, polemicist and political activist. Born in Dublin, he moved to London when he turned twenty. Having rejected formal schooling, he educated himself by independent study in the reading room of the British Museum; he also began his career there by writing novels for which he could not find a publisher. His first success was as a music and literary critic, but he was drawn to drama and authored more than sixty plays during his career. Typically his work is leavened by a delightful vein of comedy, but nearly all of it bears earnest messages. He remains the only person to have been awarded both a Nobel Prize (1925) for his contribution to literature and an Oscar (1938) for Pygmalion.

Book excerpt: "Candida" by George Bernard Shaw is a captivating play that delves into themes of love, marriage, and societal expectations. Set in Victorian England, the play revolves around the complex dynamics of the relationship between Candida, a strong-willed and independent woman, and her husband, Reverend James Morell, a charismatic but self-absorbed clergyman. At the heart of the story is the arrival of Eugene Marchbanks, a young poet who becomes infatuated with Candida and challenges the conventions of love and marriage. As Marchbanks professes his love for Candida, tensions rise, and the characters confront their own desires, insecurities, and conflicting loyalties. Shaw uses sharp wit and incisive dialogue to explore the power dynamics within the Morell household and to dissect the illusions of romantic love and marital bliss. Through Candida's character, Shaw challenges traditional gender roles and societal expectations, presenting her as a symbol of female agency and independence. As the drama unfolds, Shaw invites audiences to question the nature of love, the meaning of marriage, and the dynamics of power in relationships. "Candida" is celebrated for its complex characters, witty repartee, and thought-provoking themes, cementing Shaw's reputation as one of the most influential playwrights of the 20th century.
Download or read book Bernard Shaw written by A. M. Gibbs and published by University Press of Florida. This book was released on 2005-11-23 with total page 549 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bernard Shaw fashioned public images of himself that belied the nature and depth of his emotional experiences and the complexity of his intellectual outlook. In this absorbing biography, noted Shavian authority A. M. Gibbs debunks many of the elements that form the foundation of Shaw's self-created legend--from his childhood (which was not the loveless experience he claimed publicly), to his sexual relationships with several women, to his marriage, his politics, his Irish identity, and his controversial philosophy of Creative Evolution. Drawing on previously unpublished materials, including never-before-seen photographs and early sketches by Shaw, Gibbs offers a fresh perspective and brings us closer than ever before to the human being behind the masks.

Book Synopsis Bernard Shaw’s Fiction, Material Psychology, and Affect by : Stephen Watt
Download or read book Bernard Shaw’s Fiction, Material Psychology, and Affect written by Stephen Watt and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-03-05 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book traces the effects of materiality - including money and its opposite, poverty - on the psychical lives of George Bernard Shaw and his characters. While this study focuses on the protagonists of the five novels Shaw wrote in the late 1870s and early 1880s, it also explores how materialism, feeling, and emotion are linked throughout his entire canon. At the same time, it demonstrates how Shaw’s conceptions of human subjectivity parallel those of two of his contemporaries, Sigmund Freud and Georg Simmel. In particular, this book explores how theories of so-called 'marginal economics' influence fin de siècle thought about human psychology and the sociology of the modern metropolis, particularly London.
Book Synopsis Science And Human Behavior by : B.F Skinner
Download or read book Science And Human Behavior written by B.F Skinner and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2012-12-18 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The psychology classic—a detailed study of scientific theories of human nature and the possible ways in which human behavior can be predicted and controlled—from one of the most influential behaviorists of the twentieth century and the author of Walden Two. “This is an important book, exceptionally well written, and logically consistent with the basic premise of the unitary nature of science. Many students of society and culture would take violent issue with most of the things that Skinner has to say, but even those who disagree most will find this a stimulating book.” —Samuel M. Strong, The American Journal of Sociology “This is a remarkable book—remarkable in that it presents a strong, consistent, and all but exhaustive case for a natural science of human behavior…It ought to be…valuable for those whose preferences lie with, as well as those whose preferences stand against, a behavioristic approach to human activity.” —Harry Prosch, Ethics
