Opis

Back to Methuselah is a cycle of five plays by George Bernard Shaw, first published in 1921. Subtitled A Metabiological Pentateuch, the work explores Shaw’s philosophical ideas about human evolution, longevity, creativity, and the future of civilization. Spanning from the Garden of Eden to a distant future, the plays present Shaw’s concept of “Creative Evolution,” arguing that humanity must evolve toward longer life and higher consciousness to overcome social and moral stagnation. Blending drama, satire, and extended philosophical debate, the work is both theatrical and speculative, challenging conventional views of progress and human potential.
