George Bernard Shaw: Arms And The Man

George Bernard Shaw

Arms and the Man is a satirical drama play written by George Bernard Shaw published in 1898. It has become one of the most popular of his plays. Like his other works, Arms and the Man questions conventional values and uses war and love as his satirical targets. He delightfully pops the bubble of the 'brave soldier' always wishing to charge into battle and shows (I think) how people stay the same whether in uniform or not and are not magically changed into different people. A cautious soldier can be just as admirable as a reckless one. Duration - 2h 51m. Author - George Bernard Shaw. Narrator - philip chenevert. Published Date - Tuesday, 09 January 2024.
