Book excerpt: Mr. Whitefield has recently died, and his will indicates that his daughter Ann should be left in the care of two men, Roebuck Ramsden and Jack Tanner. Ramsden, a venerable old man, distrusts John Tanner, an eloquent youth with revolutionary ideas, saying "He is prodigiously fluent of speech, restless, excitable (mark the snorting nostril and the restless blue eye, just the thirty-secondth of an inch too wide open), possibly a little mad". In spite of what Ramsden says, Ann accepts Tanner as her guardian, though Tanner doesn't want the position at all. She also challenges Tanner's revolutionary beliefs with her own ideas. Despite Tanner's professed dedication to anarchy, he is unable to disarm Ann's charm, and she ultimately persuades him to marry her, choosing him over her more persistent suitor, a young man named Octavius Robinson.

This book was released on 2021-07-29 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Man and Superman was the first drama to be broadcast on the BBC's Third Programme on October 1, 1946.

In CliffsNotes on Shaw's Man and Superman & Caesar and Cleopatra you explore two of George Bernard Shaw's numerous plays. Man and Superman is a satirical comedy of ideas where the law of nature is involved: Money means nourishment, which is man's first concern; marriage means children, which are woman's prime interest. Who will win in Shaw's battle of the sexes? Caesar and Cleopatra offers an unconventional look at these eponymous characters who are depicted as two very mortal and very flawed human beings. In this play, Shaw examines our notions of heroism, femininity, intelligence, and morality - and then turns them inside out - with style and brilliance. In this study guide, you'll find Life and Background on the Author, Introduction to Man and Superman, and Critical Commentaries on each act of the plays.
