Abstract

The article explores Bernard Shaw's play "Man and Superman" as a satirical reinterpretation of the Don Juan myth, focusing on Shaw's intertextual engagement with Lord Byron's works. Shaw's familiarity with Byron's poetry is evident in his play, with linguistic and stylistic echoes that suggest a deliberate homage to Byron's lyrical style. The study highlights the literary influence of Byron on Shaw's work, emphasizing the interplay between tradition and innovation in literature. [Extracted from the article]
