  • Résumé : "Man and Superman" by George Bernard Shaw is a complex play that intertwines comedy with philosophical discourse, exploring themes of human nature, societal norms, and the dynamics of sexual attraction. The play is structured around the character of Don Juan, reimagined in a modern context as a philosophical figure rather than a mere libertine. Shaw uses the character to delve into the nature of human instincts, societal expectations, and the pursuit of personal freedom. The play is notable for its "Epistle Dedicatory," where Shaw addresses Arthur Bingham Walkley, discussing the evolution of the Don Juan archetype and its relevance in contemporary society. Shaw critiques the superficiality of societal norms and the constraints they impose on individual freedom, particularly in the context of romantic and sexual relationships. He argues that true progress requires a deeper understanding of human instincts and the courage to challenge conventional morality. The play also includes a dream sequence, where Don Juan engages in a philosophical dialogue with other characters, including the Devil, exploring existential themes and the nature of human purpose. Shaw's work is a reflection on the complexities of human behavior and the societal structures that shape it, urging a reconsideration of traditional values in favor of a more enlightened and liberated approach to life.
