El propósito de este artículo es analizar la defensa de los derechos de la mujer en un contexto moderno de machismo e injusticia, lo cual se cree que se ha iniciado desde el comienzo de la historia. En esta supuesta lucha por la igualdad, algunos especialista han sugerido que las mujeres siempre han sido el sexo oprimido y subordinado, mientras que los hombres han sido el grupo dominante, ya que tenían el poder de hacer leyes para dictar normas sociales y políticas con el fin de colocar a las mujeres en una esfera limitada. Esto, es una tendencia a pensar que los hombres dudaron en recurrir a la violencia con la intención de consolidar su dominio sobre el llamado “sexo débil”. En este sentido, el estudio tiene como objetivo estudiar la contribución de George Bernard Shaw en la defensa de los derechos de las mujeres y ser consideradas libres y dignas, fuera de una condición de sometimiento.

George Bernard Shaw is best known today for his plays, but he first exercised his incisive wit as a drama and music critic in London, intermittently from 1876, regularly from 1888 to 1894, and intermittently again to the end of his life. Shaw explicitly intended to make his reviews both educational and accessible to the general public, combining performance critiques with broader considerations, including aspects of music theory and music education, and avoiding technical terms to the extent possible. Thus, his music criticism serves as an example of public music theory. This chapter surveys Shaw’s music-theoretic comments through this lens, analyzing what they demonstrate about his own musical understanding and underlying ideologies, the educational purpose of his reviews, and the level of musical knowledge he assumed on the part of his late nineteenth-century London readership.

Literature has always been a mighty weapon in bringing reality to surface. It is the reflection of mirror in the form of print that actually ushers to forefront the reality of life. The main aim of art is to revolutionize the world in general and society in particular. “Art for the Sake of Life” generally refers to the notion that art makes us understand the conduct of everyday life. Although art encompasses literature yet it is more than that because it deals with every aspect of our life. It is the way to justify the grim realities of life while beautifying them. As a famous writer James Baldwin accords that “one can’t write a line without a message”. Art is a way of expressing oneself. Many people use it to express boundless emotions and thoughts, from turbulence to euphoria to bewilderment that everyone has within the heart, mind and soul. The authors have discovered an escape through art to seek meaning via truth, not just for the sake of art, but for the sake of life. Writers tweak the image of specific challenges so that a reader can see them through the same lens. George Bernard Shaw also avows that “For art’s sake alone I would not face the toil of writing a single sentence”. So, an artist should be moralist encumbered with a reforming zeal. Thus “Art for the sake of life” is a maxim that should be applied to all art; art with style, sophistication, pathos, and psychological resonance. It is not thus for the art’s sake rather it is for the life’s sake or social sake. Art is a medicine or elixir of pain which makes life bearable. The main aim of this paper is to showcase how art in general as well as in particular is only for life’s sake and not for art’s sake. Art thus has a cosmic phenomenon with a universal impact.

The Dark Lady evoked in Shakespeare’s Sonnets has been the subject of numerous speculations since the Victorian period. Several male writers and critics – George Bernard Shaw, Frank Harris, A. L. Rowse and Anthony Burgess, for example – have undertaken extended imaginative explorations of this alternative woman. More recently, the Dark Lady has become a central figure in millennial novels by women writers, designed primarily for a female reading audience. This article considers what’s at stake by placing this imaginary woman at the heart of Shakespeare’s artistic inspiration, and what this tells us about the meaning(s) of ‘Shakespeare’ for contemporary women writers and readers.
