Book Description | It is essential to recall a significant moment in Shaw's career, as he refused to accept the Nobel Prize the first time he won it in 1925, only to accept it the following year. At that time, Shaw said: "I forgive Nobel for inventing dynamite, but I do not forgive him for establishing the Nobel Prize." Shaw is considered the first person to refuse the prize since its inception in 1901, stating: "This prize is like a lifebuoy thrown to someone who has already reached safety and is no longer in danger." In 1926, Shaw accepted the prize after his wife convinced him that it was an honor for Ireland, but he insisted on refusing the monetary value and requested that it be used for translating the works of his contemporary playwright "August Strindberg" from Swedish to English. This biography of one of the most important writers of the 20th century, who left a significant mark on global theatrical art, immortalized him among the great playwrights throughout history, and his works continue to receive considerable attention worldwide from fans of this art. The importance of this biography lies in the fact that the author distilled his life and writing experiences within it and completed it just two years before his death, making it the most crucial source for reviewing the personal experiences of a writer whose literature, ethics, and significant stances have left a profound imprint on the realm of arts and literature. |
