Abstract Details

2009, Master of Arts, University of Akron, English-Literature.
George Bernard Shaw and George Orwell were each vocal socialists who often drew scorn and vehement opposition for their unique political views. This study traces the origins of their socialist convictions, and demonstrates how a distinctly literary aesthetic undergirding their political viewpoints rendered their political writings both highly controversial and uniquely insightful.
