Book: Arms And The Man

This play marked George Bernard Shaw's introduction as an outstanding playwright to the theatre-loversof London in 1894. The play is a comedy about love and war that contradicts thepopular notion that soldiers are heroes who are inspired by patrioticsentiments, and projects fighting as a profession like any other. The play is a satire on militarism thatimplies that the inexperienced and raw youth rashly risk their lives on thebattlefront, and draws a line between the 'ideal' and the 'real'. Like war, lovetoo has no romantic glamour. The satire, as such, focuses on a great deal oftruth in love and war.

Review by umesh prasad singh
george bernard shaw in arms and the man reflects the human nature in a psychological pattern of existence. shavian philosophy is wonderfully elaborated in this anti romantic comedy . this is a celebrated text in the honours course of english literature in the renowned universities in india. shaw reveals the reality through sergius and bluntschli in a profound manner of appearance and reality. bluntschli is none but shaw himself as a powerful representative of the age . the heroism exhibited by bluntschli reveals the bravery of a real personality in shavian sense . sergius depicts a hypocritical character in the play which was discovered by raina in the play explorating the essence of anti romantic comedy in a heroic apt and attitude. the gamut of arms and the man is a scenario of profundity and valour in true demonstration of fiction and realism.

Review by umesh prasad singh
calcutta university honours course of study in english literature deals a lot about shavian literature and culture in a strategic move and trend . honours literary foundation of english literature rejuvenates a pattern in shavian art of literary criticism to a socio -economic conditions of the age with tremendous sphere of literary and dramatic awareness in reality. shavian study group in calcutta university has staged this drama on the stage percolating validity of this text in the anti romantic context.it has a reverberation of idea of man and superman and other writings of shaw. bernard shaw dominates the entire era with awe and profound christian belief on the iconoclastic mode of thinking and trend.shaw essentially was a image breaker on the synthetic plane of existence and verification of facts with certitude and verticality of understanding.

Review by umesh prasad singh
psychological platform of arms and the man by shaw has a deep connotation and annotation of rejuvenation principles of thouhgt pattern and dramatic consideration of ideas . thus arms and the man isa play belonging to the literary and universal thinkers as well on the equal fronts of positional dramatic features with societal transfomation and administrative reorganization of things . thus the entire purport of this drama is rooted in common multiple index and highest common factor of humanism in true sense and dramatic effulgence.post graduate thinkers coupled with ph.d scholars in shavian thought current has spent lot of ink and exuasted many refills on such issues reaching to the demarcations of creativity in reality. unconventionally speaking shaw throws a vistas of knowledge efficiency through this anti romantic comedy .shaw epitomises the very soul of creativity..

Review by umesh prasad singh
shaw pinpoints sergius in arms and the man as a choclate cream soldier reflecting the hypocrisy of the age in a typical shavian manner of content and context. the referential context in this drama makes us feel the attribute of human conditionality of approaches and behaviour in an outstanding.manner. on the one hand bluntschli represents the age old traditionality of valour and gumption with dexterity and briskness. honours literary interpretation in this arena reveals anote of qualified note of dramatic upsurge.
