{"product_id":"george-bernard-shaw-in-context-brad-kent-9781108458054","title":"George Bernard Shaw in Context","description":"When George Bernard Shaw died in 1950, the world lost one of its most well-known authors, a revolutionary who was as renowned for his personality as he was for his humour, humanity, and rebellious thinking. He remains a compelling figure who deserves attention not only for how influential he was in his time, but for how relevant he is to ours. This collection sets Shaw's life and achievements in context, with forty-two scholarly essays devoted to subjects that interested him and defined his work. Contributors explore a wide range of themes, moving from factors that were formative in Shaw's life, to the artistic work that made him most famous and the institutions with which he worked, to the political and social issues that consumed much of his attention, and, finally, to his influence and reception. Presenting fresh material and arguments, this collection will point to new directions of research for future scholars.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Brad Kent\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 110845805X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781108458054\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/26\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 416\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.23lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.85d","brand":"Brad Kent","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43924102316287,"sku":"9781108458054","price":40.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_97c190fc-39e5-4f8d-b147-1c8da0ed2f22.jpg?v=1681068488","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/george-bernard-shaw-in-context-brad-kent-9781108458054","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
