Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 1st Edition. Mencken and Shaw : The Anatomy of America's Voltaire and England's Other John Bull BY Benjamin De Casseres, hardcover in dustjacket. dj unclipped. 1st edition. Published by Silas Newton Publisher, NY 1930. Mencken and Shaw: The Anatomy of America's Voltaire and England's Other John Bull is a book written by Benjamin De Casseres that explores the lives and works of two of the most influential literary figures of the 20th century: H.L. Mencken and George Bernard Shaw. The book delves into the similarities and differences between the two men, who were both renowned for their wit, intelligence, and biting social commentary. De Casseres examines Mencken's role as a journalist and critic, as well as his contributions to American literature and culture. He also explores Shaw's impact on English literature, theater, and politics, and his role as a social critic and activist. Throughout the book, De Casseres draws parallels between Mencken and Shaw, highlighting their shared skepticism of religion, their belief in the power of reason and science, and their commitment to free speech and individualism. He also explores their differences, such as Mencken's more cynical and satirical approach to social commentary, compared to Shaw's more idealistic and utopian vision for society. Overall, Mencken and Shaw: The Anatomy of America's Voltaire and England's Other John Bull provides a fascinating insight into the lives and works of two of the most influential literary figures of the 20th century, and their impact on American and English culture and society.
