註釋Shaw began writing Man and Superman in 1901, determined to create a play that would encapsulate the new century's intellectual inheritance. Shaw drew inspiration not only from Byron's verse satire but also from Shakespeare, Victorian comedy fashionable in his early life, and authors such as Conan Doyle and Kipling. In this powerful drama of ideas, Shaw explores the role of the artist, the function of women in society, and his theory of Creative Evolution. As Stanley Weintraub states in his new introduction, this is 'the first great twentieth-century English play' and remains a classic exposé of the eternal struggle between the sexes.
