Sobre IBD

Originally published in 1973, Dukore discusses the theory of drama that is the basis of Shaw’s comedies, which present his views of mores and follies. He proposes fresh perspectives from which to regard Shaw’s works for the theatre - works that were arrestingly relevant and immediate to the time.
