About George Bernard Shaw
Irish playwright and critic of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Shaw is best known for his sharp social commentary and satirical plays that exposed class inequality and political hypocrisy. His works, including *Man and Superman* and *Pygmalion*, blend wit with progressive ideas, challenging conventional morality and advocating for humanist values.
