Exclusive to Penguin Classics: the definitive text of the first great twentieth-century English play and a classic exposé of the eternal struggle between the sexes—part of the official Bernard Shaw Library
 
A Penguin Classic


After the death of her father, Ann Whitefield becomes the joint ward of two men: the respectable Roebuck Ramsden and John Tanner, author of “The Revolutionist’s Handbook.” Believing marriage would prevent him from achieving his higher intellectual and political ambitions, Tanner is horrified to discover that Ann intends to marry him, and he flees to Spain with the determined young woman in hot pursuit. The chase even leads them to the underworld, where the characters’ alter egos discuss questions of human nature and philosophy in a lively debate in a scene often performed separately as “Don Juan in Hell.” In
Man and Superman, Shaw combined seriousness with comedy to create a satirical and buoyant exposé of the eternal struggle between the sexes.
 
This is the definitive text produced under the editorial supervision of Dan H. Laurence. The volume also includes Shaw’s preface of 1903 and his appendix, “The Revolutionist’s Handbook”; the cast list from the first production of
Man and Superman; and a list of his principal works.

Editorial Reviews

Review

By the Winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature

“[Shaw] did his best in redressing the fateful unbalance between truth and reality, in lifting mankind to a higher rung of social maturity. He often pointed a scornful finger at human frailty, but his jests were never at the expense of humanity.” —Thomas Mann
 
“Shaw will not allow complacency; he hates second-hand opinions; he attacks fashion; he continually challenges and unsettles, questioning and provoking us even when he is making us laugh. And he is still at it. No cliché or truism of contemporary life is safe from him.” —Michael Holroyd
 
“In his works Shaw left us his mind. . . . Today we have no Shavian wizard to awaken us with clarity and paradox, and the loss to our national intelligence is immense.” —The Sunday Times
 
“He was a Tolstoy with jokes, a modern Dr. Johnson, a universal genius who on his own modest reckoning put even Shakespeare in the shade.” The Independent
 
“His plays were superb exercises in high-level argument on every issue under the sun, from feminism and God, to war and eternity, but they were also hits—and still are.” —The Daily Mail

About the Author

George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950) is one of the world’s greatest literary figures. Born in Dublin, Ireland, he left school at fourteen and in 1876 went to London, where he began his literary career with a series of unsuccessful novels. In 1884 he became a founder of the Fabian Society, the famous British socialist organization. After becoming a reviewer and drama critic, he published a study of the Norwegian dramatist Henrik Ibsen in 1891 and became determined to create plays as he felt Ibsen did: to shake audiences out of their moral complacency and to attack social problems. However, Shaw was an irrepressible wit, and his plays are as entertaining as they are socially provocative. Basically shy, Shaw created a public persona for himself: G.B.S., a bearded eccentric, crusading social critic, antivivisectionist, language reformer, strict vegetarian, and renowned public speaker. The author of fifty-three plays, hundreds of essays, reviews, and letters, and several books, Shaw is best known for Widowers’ Houses, Mrs. Warren’s Profession, Arms and the Man, Caesar and Cleopatra, Man and Superman, Major Barbara, Pygmalion, Heartbreak House, and Saint Joan. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1925.

Dan H. Laurence (series editor; 1920–2008) was series editor for the works of George Bernard Shaw in Penguin. Formerly a New York University faculty member, Mr. Laurence left his tenured position in 1970 to dedicated his life to the collection and curation of Shaw's life, work, and letters. He served as the official literary advisor to Shaw's estate and published four volumes of his correspondence.

Stanley Weintraub (introducer) teaches at the Institute of Arts and Humanistic Studies at Penn State University.

A retrospective review…
George Bernard Shaw died in 1950, at the age of 94, from injuries sustained from falling while pruning a tree. That alone might recommend the man’s worth. There were a few others: he was a prolific writer and social critic, being awarded the Nobel Prize in 1925. He is frequently ranked as only second to Shakespeare as an English playwright. He was born in Ireland, and he blamed England and Germany equally for World War I, not a popular view on the home front, but such was his reputation by then, that it seemed not to affect him much. He was a Fabian and a Socialist. He was also an admirer of Mussolini and Stalin, for far too long, but some other “useful idiots” were as well… a bit too much hope in the strongman approach, a “superman” if you will.I first read this work when I was in high school, more than a few years ago. My Penguin edition cost 85 cents, and I appreciate re-reading what I felt were the significant passages that I had marked by then. And I have always liked the cover, which conveys a very early moment in time of the automobile’s ascendency: no windshield and a motoring uniform, including goggles. The year: 1903. And the British Empire was at its apogee.There was so much I did not understand the first time around: what the hills around Grenada looked like, or the significance of the Alhambra… those passages in French… who this Nietzsche fellow was. But one of the passages I marked back then, for reflection, indicated that it was the women who were the determinants in a relationship… they picked the man, and back then I had no idea who George Sand was, but on the re-read I found my much better informed sentiments of her so well expressed: “your George Sand became a mother to gain experience for the novelist and to develop her, and gobbles up men of genius, Chopins, Mussets, and the like, as mere hors d’oeuvres.”Shaw writes in this hip, sardonic style, particularly for 1903. The structure of the overall work, however, can be a bit strained. He commences with a 30-page letter to Arthur Bingham Walkley, whom Google could fortunately find. Shaw says he is going to write a play about Don Juan, a new and revised version, and then provides the many previous versions, and the evolution of his character, from Spain through Mozart and Moliere. Then there is the play itself, followed by a 50-page “Revolutionist’s Handbook” purportedly written by Shaw’s alter ego in the play, Jack Tanner. The handbook itself is a far ranging, and rambling social critique, that even includes his thoughts on the Oneida Creek “perfectionist” community, which was founded in America in 1848.In the play itself, the impetuous and coy Ann has had two men appointed as her guardian, upon the death of her father. Roebuck Ramsden, born in 1839, represents the “old school,” to be balanced by the young Jack Tanner, Ann’s coeval. Octavius is most interested in Ann, alas, unrequited. Violet, Octavius’ sister, is pregnant, and (seemingly) unmarried. Shaw takes this initial set-up, mixes and stirs a bit, adding a few more characters and twists, notably the decision to race to Biskra, Algeria (!) in the car on the cover, with a professional chauffeur, who has troubles with his “H’s”. They get ambushed by reasonable intelligent and friendly brigands in the Sierra Nevada, near Grenada, and in a dream, visit Satan. Whew!A few bon mots along the way: “Age brings golf instead of wisdom,” “…the welter of ecclesiastical and professional humbug which saves the face of the stupid system of violence and robbery which we call Law and Industry,” “They accuse us of treating them as a mere means to our pleasure; but how can such a feeble and transient folly as a man’s selfish pleasure enslave a woman as the whole purpose of Nature embodied in a woman can enslave a man?,” “The more distinguished persons become more revolutionary as they grow older, though they are commonly supposed to become more conservative owing to their loss of faith in conventional methods of reform.”For me, it was an important re-read, much better understood, the second time around. 4-stars.

    While the edition of the (George)Bernard Shaw book I purchased IS an authentic early (1904) copy, it was, however, Not in the very GOOD condition as indicated by the vendor (Little Horse (in Colorado) I think)-- And while I don't mind wiping down the classics with a soft, damp cloth every now and again (and who put the recent pencil marks in the book before it shipped--??), it was not what I expected from a book listed in GOOD condition or as well preserved (clearly a point of purchase of some significance for any vintage book collector). -On another note, don't let George Bernard Shaw's inflammatory quips in the dedication turn you off high literature, it was clearly a point they failed to address in the (commercial/bigPub) editorial process (relating to the ongoing issue of mis-editing an author/researcher's work, etc... -a serious problem with some commercial publishing entities)... And while it was shipped in (shoddy) condition, not in any way worthy of a proper public library display and certainly not worthy of a GOOD condition descriptor from any reputable vendor, it is still suitable to one's private/personal library. But, considering it is an early (1904)edition as opposed to a later reprint, I expected much more from the book-vendor in terms of preservation of the book, itself (you know, like how they take the damaging-gunk off the artwork prior to displaying at museums and such)... Readable, yes, Good or very good condition, um, no... So/and considering the work, Very curious indeed, but, anyhoo, "0"/Zero stars for the vendor (F--). Less than one star for the condition of the book (D--). Four-point-Five stars for the overall (intellectual-friendly) book content (B++/A-). Overall a C-/D+ (shopping) experience for an B+/A- literary work.
    In otherwords, `Meh/Yeck' to THEM, but `Yay' to Bernard Shaw!
    4.5 stars for the book!

    I do not study drama; I have not been to a stage play in several years; I've never read G.B. Shaw before nor have I read - though I am familiar with - Nietzsche's works; and, what's more, I was ignorant of the true Don Juan story (which plays an important role in 'Man and Superman') prior to sketching out the barest details from Shaw's introduction and cursory online research. In other words, I can't think of anyone less qualified to review Shaw's play than me. Woohoo! so here goes.

    There are four acts to 'Man and Superman' - the first, second and fourth consist of Shaw's comedic inversion of the Don Juan formula, used for effect to ridicule conventional ideas of the time about sex and relationships. The third act Shaw called "extraneous", though that's deceptive - Shaw had a philosophy he wanted to impart to the audience with this play, and the three acts surrounding the third are merely spoonfuls of sugar that help that philosophy go down. To further advance his ideas, there is a long letter to Shaw's contemporary and Times' theater critic, Arthur Bingham Walkley, that functions as an introduction; and an appendix in the form of a pamphlet - The Revolutionist's Handbook and Pocket Companion - facetiously authored by one of the cast of characters.

    The three comedy acts are still enjoyable today; as one who does not read much drama, I would say that 'Superman' reminded me a little of fellow Irishman Oscar Wilde's 'The Importance of Being Earnest', except perhaps a little less clever. Here the modern Don Juan, John Tanner, is pursued by the woman Ann Whitefield, instead of vice versa - but both sexes are really only unconscious puppets of the 'Life Force', which insistently demands they play the procreation role. The third act is a dream of the main character's - a long dialectical dream where the original Don Juan, his object of pursuit, her father, and the Devil meet in Hell to further discuss and elaborate on the nature of the 'Life Force'.

    The 'Life Force', says Don Juan to the Devil, has created in him a tool, a philosopher's brain, with the overwhelming urge now to know itself and its destination, rather than to follow the path of least resistance - in other words, it is for enlightened mankind to direct its own destiny, and from necessity to pull the masses up along with it. That necessity is a political one - "We must either breed political capacity (in the electorate)," says Shaw in his letter to Walkley, "or else be ruined by Democracy". He saw the work of reformers and progressives as insufficient, and even going so far as suggesting (in the words of the Revolutionary's Handbook) a State Department of Evolution to oversee matters. Before this could happen though, the ridiculous mores of Victorian society concerning sex and relationships had to be torn apart, and Shaw does his part by entertainingly lampooning and lambasting it in the comedic portions of the play. Once the romantic nonsense was swept away, the whole business could be conducted along more sensible lines, thus evolving the Superman. Otherwise, as willing or unwilling members of a democracy, the country would find itself at the whim of the 'swinish multitudes', or, the electorate.

    Well, anyone who is familiar with the 20th Century knows that creating supermen has so far proved to be a bad idea, and, as far as I can tell, repudiating the old customs associated with breeding has not brought overwhelming enlightenment to the masses. (Or refudiating, according to one of my companions in the swinish multitude). That a representative democracy is only as good as its public is, unfortunately, an inherent fact of the system. It may have looked tempting to try and improve that public by breeding - I only pray THAT particular method is permanently discredited.

    What is clear is that Shaw gives the Devil the most prescient lines of the play. "Beware of the pursuit of the Superhuman: it leads to an indiscriminate contempt for the human." (I believe there are tens, if not hundreds, of millions of people from the last century who found this out firsthand.) Perhaps Shaw thought of this as the 'Devil's advocate' position, but since he more or less ends the third act with these lines indicates to me that he wasn't totally unaware of the dangers involved. Nevertheless, while the play - minus the third act, introduction and appendix - still reflects common habits (requirements?) between men and women today, so far, the empirical evidence of history weighs in against the idea of attempting to purposely breed a race of Supermen.

    Otherwise, I think Shaw is dead-on as he describes several primal instincts concerning sexual pursuit. Accurate, and perhaps a bit ruthless - one might even get the idea that Shaw had it in for women as a whole. There are also other conventions of his time that he attacks here, mostly involving class and privilege - but even though I think his points still apply, the framework of the problems have changed enough in the last hundred years to where his description of them is hard to transport to our modern situation. In the end, 'Man and Superman' is mostly interesting as a historical document - evidence of a mindset from the turn of the century, along with a mildly amusing entertainment.

    Also of note: At the end of the Revolutionary's Handbook is a lengthy list of aphorisms, such as "He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches," and "Hell is paved with good intentions, not with bad ones." Doubtless others on the list will be as familiar, and may be of interest to those who enjoy that sort of thing. Honestly, they seem self-congratulatory to me, but then I'm only part of the swinish multitude, so what do I know?

    This edition of the play is in the trade paperback format, and includes only the letter, the play, and the handbook. It is completely acceptable if this were the only play by Shaw that one wanted, though there are other collections that include more than one play and some commentary also, and surely for less than the cost of this edition.

    I read this play after enjoying Pygmalion. Shaw creates a female lead who uses her femininity and supposed delicacy/cluelessness to manipulate those around her, ultimately trapping the Don Juan-esque male lead into marrying her despite his objections to the institution. Although she pretends to be helpless, she actually controls the situation, so I think this counts as a feminist work, although I'm confused about what his ultimate message is. I'm also not sure how the whole philosophy of the life-force, superman thing fits in, but I haven't read much philosophy, and I enjoyed the play regardless. Like all of Shaw's stuff, the play contains social commentary, humor, and wit.
