Description
Shaw�s story is rife with such �beyond opinions�, as an Anglo-Irish Protestant, a Dubliner in London, and a socialist living in the aftermath of the industrial revolution. In one sense, as a Protestant choosing to live in London, he is a John Bull, yet he remains Irish � an Irish Bull, something alluded to in his one play set in Eire, John Bull�s Other Island.
