lays called "the widower's house." shaw also kept records, doing them neatly and diligently. subsequently, the future writer developed a distinct handwriting, and typesetters easily deciphered his manuscripts. young bernard was significantly influenced by musician george john lee, with whom his mother had become close even before his son's birth. the writer even suggested that he might be his biological father. their families shared a house where music was constantly playing. in 1873, lee left dublin to travel to england, and soon bernard's mother followed him, taking both daughters with her. young shaw stayed with his father and tried to compensate for his absence in the music house by learning to play the piano on his own. three years later, in 1876, bernard eventually went to his mother in london, where he pursued self-education and, under li's patronage, got a job at one of the newspapers where he ran a …

tuations and dialogues rich in paradoxes. 3. bernard shaw and theatre " in his time as a theatre critic, shaw was fascinated by the work of norwegian playwright henrik ibsen. in 1891, he published the essay "quintessence of ibsenism," in which he isolated the main characteristics of the scandinavian writer's plays. during bernard's youth, only william shakespeare's plays, as well as insignificant melodramas and comedies, dominated theatrical platforms. ibsen, in shaw's view, became a pioneer in european dramaturgy, elevating it to a new level through the revelation of sharp conflicts and debates between characters. inspired by ibsen's plays, shaw wrote the first of his "unpleasant plays" in 1885, titled "the widower's house." it is believed that his biography as a writer-dramatist began with this work. at the same time, a new era of european drama was born, acute, pressing, built not on the active actions of the heroes, but on …
