SHAW PODCASTS Below is a listing of a
collection of podcasts that, as it builds, will provide opportunity for all
kinds of podcasts on the general subject of Shaw, his life, times, and works,
with a single voice addressing a single subject or perhaps an interviewer
asking questions of a special guest or perhaps a group discussion of some
topic. You suggest the format. 1.) SECTION 1 will feature interviews
related to the Palgrave Macmillan series, “Bernard Shaw and His
Contemporaries.” |

We begin
with an interview by NPR editor Kathryn Eident of
Nelson Ritschel, one of the co-editors of “Bernard Shaw and His
Contemporaries,” of Ritschel’s book titled Bernard Shaw, W.T. Stead, and The New Journalism. 1 A.) “George Bernard Shaw and Freedom of the
Press” https://www.capeandislands.org/post/george-bernard-shaw-and-freedom-press#stream/0
|

2.) SECTION
2 will feature individuals talking on historical/biographical
subjects. 2A.)

3.)
SECTION 3 will focus on a variety of “Critical Approaches to Bernard
Shaw,” inviting members of the International Shaw Society and others to speak
on how they have interpreted Shaw’s works and, perhaps, taught them in classes. These podcasts will be found on Kay Li’s Sagittarius website at http://libra.apps01.yorku.ca/podcast/. |

3 A.) The first podcast is a
brief introduction by R. F. Dietrich, Founding President of the International
Shaw Society, to a series which invites other Shaw Scholars to create
podcasts of their own on the general subject of “Critical Approaches to
Bernard Shaw.” It can be accessed at http://libra.apps01.yorku.ca/podcast/?name=2015-06-25_dick_dietrich_introduction.m4a
. 3 B.) The first full podcast in this series is by
Sally Peters, speaking on her book Bernard Shaw: The Ascent of
the Superman (Yale University
Press, cloth 1996, paper 1998). It can be accessed at http://libra.apps01.yorku.ca/podcast/?name=2015-11-17_peters_on_shaw.m4a. 4.) SECTION 4:? And we’d be happy to open a fourth category
for the reading of Shaw’s plays, once they’re free of the copyright in 2020. If
you wish to participate by creating your own podcast, individually or as
interviewer or as part of a group or some other format, please contact R. F.
Dietrich at dietrich@shawsociety.org
and Kay Li at wli@yorku.ca. |
