Download or read book Major Barbara written by George Bernard Shaw and published by . This book was released on 2019-12-05 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Major Barbara is a three-act play that premiered at the Court Theatre in 1905, and was subsequently published in 1907. It portrays idealist Barbara Undershaft, a Major in the Salvation Army, and her encounter with her long-estranged father who has made his fortune as a "dealer of death" in the munitions industry. Barbara doesn't wish to be associated with her father's ill-gotten wealth, but can't prevent him from donating to the Salvation Army and eventually converting her family to his capitalist views on how best to help the poor. In the preface, Shaw addresses his critics and explicates his actual attitudes towards the Salvation Army, versus the attitudes and fates portrayed by his characters and responded to by the critics. He continues on to discuss the issues of wealth and poverty, religion and science, and how they all fit into his views of society. Major Barbara is one of the most controversial of Shaw's work and was greeted with decidedly mixed reviews, yet it endures as one of his most famous plays.
