Condition: Good. Exclusive to Penguin Classics: the definitive text of one of Shakespeare's most affecting plays--part of the official Bernard Shaw Library A Penguin Classic In a cheeky nod to Shakespeare's towering reputation, Shaw reinvents two of his historical characters but sets his own play in a period predating both Julius Caesar and Antony and Cleopatra. Shaw's Cleopatra is a kittenish girl with a streak of cruelty, while his Caesar is a world-weary philosopher-soldier who is as much a stranger in Rome as in the barbaric court of Egypt. With wit, irony, and an undertone of melancholy, Caesar and Cleopatra satirizes Shakespeare's use of history and comments wryly on the politics of Shaw's own time.   This is the definitive text prepared under the editorial supervision of Dan H. Laurence. The volume includes Shaw's preface of 1900.…

Condition: Good. Exclusive to Penguin Classics: the definitive text of Shaw's volume of three plays of ideas, The Devil's Disciple, Caesar and Cleopatra, and Captain Brassbound's Conversion--part of the official Bernard Shaw Library A Penguin Classic Shaw believed that theatre audiences of the 1890s deserved more than the hollow spectacle and sham he saw displayed on the London stage. But he also recognized that people wanted to be entertained while educated, and to see purpose mixed with pleasure. In these plays, Shaw employed traditional dramatic forms--Victorian melodrama, the history play and the adventure story--to turn received wisdom upside down. Set during the American War of Independence, The Devil's Disciple exposes fake Puritanism and piety, while Caesar and Cleopatra, a cheeky riposte to Shakespeare, redefines heroism in the character of the ageing Roman leader. And in Captain Brassbound's Conversion, an expedition in Morocco is saved from disaster by a lady explorer's skilful manipulation of the truth.…
