This pamphlet was written as a philosophical commentary on Wagner’s Der Ring des Nibelungen. Shaw believed that most people could not understand the drama, and wanted to bring them the knowledge of the adepts who see in the operas the “whole tragedy of human history and the whole horror of the dilemmas from which the world is shrinking today.”
Sobre el autor
George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950) wrote articles, novels, short stories, and more than sixty iconoclastic plays, including Mrs Warren’s Profession, Caesar and Cleopatra, Pygmalion, and many others. His works challenged assumptions about marriage, religion, and politics. A co-founder of the London School of Economics, he was part of the Fabian Society. He is the only person to have won both an Oscar and the Nobel Prize for Literature.
