Saint Joan stands out among George Bernard Shaw's plays. He's best known for drawing-room plays exploring social issues; here he writes something closer to a Shakespearean history play, following the fifteenth-century French national hero Joan of Arc through her campaigns and beyond. Shaw's preface to the play argues that other tellings of Joan's story do her a disservice by idealizing her and demonizing her antagonists. By refusing to show the prosecutors at Joan's trial as cartoonish villains, Shaw introduces real drama into what could easily be cheap melodrama. And Shaw's fully human Joan is one of his finest creations, which has attracted great actresses to the part from the 1920s to the present day. It is mostly on account of this deep characterization that this is considered by some to be Shaw's greatest play. George Bernard Shaw (died 1950) was an influential writer of the modernist period. Their work has endured across generations and continues to be read and studied worldwide. The dramatic works of earlier centuries formed the backbone of a rich theatrical tradition. Saint Joan was written to be performed as well as read, and its theatrical power remains fully evident on the page, with characters, conflict, and language that leap to life.
