  • The Central Theme of Education in Shaw's Pygmalion
    www.the-criterion.com The Criterion [email protected] An International Journal in English ISSN 0976-8165 The Central Theme of Education in Shaw’s Pygmalion Dr. D. Prasad Assistant Professor of English, Jeppiaar Engineering College, Chennai – 600 119 Tamilnadu, India The Central Theme of Education The contribution on Bernard Shaw to the modern English drama is significant. He discusses a serious problem of the contemporary society as intensely as he can. Therefore the readers call his plays ‘Comedies of Purpose’ In writing plays, Shaw had the deliberate object of converting the society to his views and ideas. He had no other incentive to write plays. G.K. Chesterton says: Bernard Shaw has much affinity to Plato in his instinctive elevation of temper, his courageous pursuit of ideas as far as they will go; his civic idealism, and also, it must be confessed, in his dislike of poets and a touch of delicate inhumanity (GeorgeBernard Shaw: 53) Education is enlightenment. Like a rainbow, it unfurls many hues, right from child development up to higher education. It also hovers into remedial programmes for backward students. It is an artistic science and a scientific art. It is not reading books but understanding. It is the art of imparting knowledge, not thrusting knowledge, into the unwilling throat. In Pygmalion, education is used as a tool for emancipating working class individuals. Eliza gets uprooted and has to give up personal feature. Language is linked up with identity and finds a new identity through education. Eliza’s transformation demonstrates that social distinctions such as accents, age, class barriers can be overcome by language training.

  • Raoul Walsh to Attend Opening of Retrospective Tribute at Museum
    The Museum of Modern Art jl west 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel. 956-6100 Cable: Modernart NO. 34 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE RAOUL WALSH TO ATTEND OPENING OF RETROSPECTIVE TRIBUTE AT MUSEUM Raoul Walsh, 87-year-old film director whose career in motion pictures spanned more than five decades, will come to New York for the opening of a three-month retrospective of his films beginning Thursday, April 18, at The Museum of Modern Art. In a rare public appearance Mr. Walsh will attend the 8 pm screening of "Gentleman Jim," his 1942 film in which Errol Flynn portrays the boxing champion James J. Corbett. One of the giants of American filmdom, Walsh has worked in all genres — Westerns, gangster films, war pictures, adventure films, musicals — and with many of Hollywood's greatest stars — Victor McLaglen, Gloria Swanson, Douglas Fair­ banks, Mae West, James Cagney, Humphrey Bogart, Marlene Dietrich and Edward G. Robinson, to name just a few. It is ultimately as a director of action pictures that Walsh is best known and a growing body of critical opinion places him in the front rank with directors like Ford, Hawks, Curtiz and Wellman. Richard Schickel has called him "one of the best action directors...we've ever had" and British film critic Julian Fox has written: "Raoul Walsh, more than any other legendary figure from Hollywood's golden past, has truly lived up to the early cinema's reputation for 'action all the way'...." Walsh's penchant for action is not surprising considering he began his career more than 60 years ago as a stunt-rider in early "westerns" filmed in the New Jersey hills.
