REVIEWS,
from Foreign Journals of Opinion, of
“George Bernard Shaw: His Life and Works”
By
ARCHIBALD HENDERSON, M.A., Ph.D.,
of The University of North Carolina
“The book is a most remarkable achievement.”--George Bernard
Shaw, in the _Morning Post_ (London), May 3, 1911.
“Mr. Shaw is explored from every point of view.... Newspaper
files have been ransacked, forgotten controversies between
dramatic critics or different kinds of Socialists have
been unearthed, profound researches made into contemporary
literature suggesting parallels and illustrations, stray
thoughts gathered up and traced in their development from
childhood to middle age....
“We cannot praise Mr. Henderson too highly. We know of nothing
in the literature of biography that is so exhaustively
complete.”--_Westminster Gazette_ (London), April 22, 1911.
“Its comprehensiveness gives it the importance of an historical
document.... It is something more than a chronicle of the life
of Mr. Bernard Shaw, it is a remarkable chronicle of English
revolutionary movements during the last twenty-five years....
In the sixteen chapters of his book, Dr. Henderson tells the
history of the idea movements of the last quarter of a century
_apropos_ of Bernard Shaw.... The reader who cannot find
instruction and entertainment within its covers lacks the art
of reading.”--Holbrook Jackson, in the _Bookman_ (London), May,
1911.
“Dr. Henderson's authorized and critical biography ... is
indispensable.... The fullest, the best informed, and the most
carefully studied account of Bernard Shaw that has yet been
published.... The book will rank immediately after Mr. Shaw's
own works as material for students of the advanced tendencies
of which in this country the author of John Bull's Other Island
is the most conspicuous representative....”--_The Scotsman_
(Edinburgh), April 13, 1911.
“A biography that could scarcely be bettered.... It is
full, minute, and exact. Biographer and autobiographer have
joined forces, and the result is a masterly study of the
most complicated personality of our time.... The author has
spared no pains in verifying his references and arranging
his materials. Here you have Shaw in his quiddity.... Dr.
Henderson out-Boswells Boswell in his enormous pertinacity,
his prodigious fidelity. He has not left a crumb for other
biographers.”--James Douglas, in the _Star_ (London), April 15,
1911.
“It would be hard to find anyone perfectly equipped for the
task (of writing Shaw's biography). Mr. Granville Barker ...
would have shown a more intelligent sympathy in Mr. Shaw's
ideals. But we should have had as much Barker as Shaw. Our
lily would have been painted. Mr. Archer might have seized the
opportunity to set up that guillotine for which he once sighed.
Mr. Webb would have been unreliable once inside the theatre. We
might have had a score of articles from various writers, each
qualified to speak on one aspect of Mr. Shaw, but we should
then have been like children with the pieces of a puzzle,
unable to fit them together. No, Professor Henderson is not
easily dethroned....
“The book is almost a history of the last quarter of
the nineteenth century, and ... it has not a dull
moment.”--_Evening Standard and St. James's Gazette_ (London),
April 11, 1911.
“At length comes the really big thing, ... and following
precedent, it comes from the home of big things, America. Dr.
Henderson ... is not only elaborate in his interpretation of
our leading dramatist and controversialist, but comprehensive
as well. His book is ... a mine in which all future students
of George Bernard Shaw will be forced to dig and delve....
Nothing is impossible to this amazingly energetic American
professor.... Professor Henderson is an interpreter of modern
ideas. He feels that we are in the midst of a remarkable
intellectual awakening, and he is impelled ... to give his
complex and multiplex period a coherent voice....
“Professor Archibald Henderson is the modern counterpart of
the old chronicler; they saw the romance and significance of
events, he sees the romance and significance of ideas; he is
a Hakluyt of ideas, of personalities.... His interests and
his enthusiasms embrace the hemispheres.”--_Black and White_
(London), April 22, 1911.
“Ce livre n'est pas seulement une étude magistrale sur la
personnalité la plus compliquée de notre temps, il est aussi
un exposé fort complet des divers mouvements d'idées qui ont
agité l'Angleterre en ces derniers vingt-cinq ans.... Mr.
Henderson mérite qu'on lui sache gré des six ans de labeur
qu'il a consacrés à ce livre, qui restera un document des
plus précieux.”--Henry D. Davray, in the _Mercure de France_
(Paris), June 16, 1911.
“The reader's astonishment when the book is laid down is not
at its length but at its brevity.... Here things regain their
true proportions, and much of our astonishment and admiration
for the book, its author, and its hero are due to this....
Nowhere does Dr. Henderson's critical faculty show to greater
advantage than in his deductions as to the general aim of the
plays.... Dr. Henderson is a critic before he is a biographer.
There is nothing of the attitude of a Boswell in his work....
There remains the possibility that others may gauge the results
of Shaw's secret with more acumen than he himself. There is
no probability, however, that this will ever be done with
more discretion, discernment, and distinction than by Mr.
Henderson.”--_Manchester Courier_ (England), April 11, 1911.
“An elaborate and detailed history of Bernard Shaw and
his effects as a dramatist, Socialist, and general
revolutionary.... George Bernard Shaw is looked at, sounded,
discussed, examined, and appraised from every point of view....
It is a well into which all future students of Bernard Shaw
will have to dip their buckets.... The biographical chapters
are brimming over with lively anecdote.... In the three
chapters devoted to Shaw as a dramatist, Mr. Henderson gives
a critical analysis of the plays of G. B. S. which is as
penetrating as it is painstaking, and will easily give him a
front seat among Bernard Shaw's commentators.... Shaw's ...
biographer has succeeded, and it is no small praise to say
that throughout the whole of his book you feel that you are in
the presence of a living personality....”--_T. P.'s Weekly_
(London), April 21, 1911.
“This notable book ... is a long one, but we have noticed very
few faults either in fact or of taste in reading it.... Nothing
in it is so salutary as the final impression it leaves of the
power to which a man can attain through the old-fashioned
virtues of energy, industry, and determination.... As critic,
political thinker, and dramatist, Mr. Shaw has managed to do
a great deal of splendid work ...; and Dr. Henderson gives us
a capital picture of it all.”--_Pall Mall Gazette_ (London),
April 11, 1911.
“A record which, in completeness, is unique among the _Men of
Our Time_. What would we not give to know as much of some of
the mighty intellects of the past!”--_Daily Graphic_ (London),
April 11, 1911.
“Acknowledgment should be made of Dr. Henderson's critical
sanity.... A most interesting and weighty book. It is the
nearest thing to that ideal autobiography which Mr. Shaw will
never write, and is a worthy tribute to a man of whom this
country ought to be proud.”--George Sampson, in the _Daily
Chronicle_ (London), April 11, 1911.
“The large and exceedingly handsome volume ... deals with
its distinguished subject in every variety of aspect,
while managing to remain itself both interesting and
entertaining.”--_Punch_ (London), May 10, 1911.
“Mr. Henderson's book is full of good things.... He analyses
and explains, watches and reports, exploits the whys and
retails the wherefores.... He is a searchlight....”--_Sketch_
(London), May 3, 1911.
“Mr. Henderson's criticism of the plays of George Bernard
Shaw is, indeed, acute and painstaking to an extraordinary
degree.”--_Lloyd's Weekly_ (Liverpool), April 30, 1911.
“Mr. Henderson's illuminating Life.... His task has been
carried out with remarkable thoroughness.”--_Globe_ (London),
April 12, 1911.
“Dr. Henderson has done his work with the Boswellian
thoroughness and assiduity. He has tracked Mr. Shaw down
through the files of remote and forgotten newspapers; he has
ransacked libraries; he has unearthed and pumped Mr. Shaw's
friends and critics in all countries; he has zealously studied
the social movements in which his hero was involved, and got
the atmosphere of the London intellectual cliques as if he had
lived his life among them instead of being a Professor in an
American University. Finally, he has compelled Mr. Shaw himself
to take an interest in the work, to contribute to it, criticise
it, and thoroughly overhaul it, so much so indeed as to lead
to the suggestion that it should be called a biography and
autobiography.... If he (Dr. Henderson) has not given us the
verdict which history will pronounce on his subject ..., he has
pronounced the verdict of the clever people of to-day.”--R. A.
Scott-James, in the _Daily News_ (London), April 11, 1911.
“A document of value. Immense pains have been taken by the
author and by Mr. Shaw to bring together within its covers
as many of the facts about Mr. Shaw's life and character and
opinion as Mr. Shaw wishes to be generally known.... Best
of all the chapters is that called 'The Cart and Trumpet,'
the record of the days when his personal force was in full
flood.”--_Outlook_ (London), April 22, 1911.
“The chapters which tell of the rise of the Socialistic spirit
in London, dating as it does from about 1880, of the genesis of
the Fabian Society, and of various controversies upon economic
matters, are capital reading and form valuable contributions to
the history of the period.... Another excellent feature is the
portion of the book dealing with the brilliant Vedrenne-Barker
seasons at the Court Theatre--seasons which made theatrical
history rapidly and forced both the critics and the public
to sit up and look around.”--_Wilfred L. Randall_, in the
_Academy_ (London), April 29, 1911.
“We are agreeably surprised to find a critic who can consider
the Shavian drama without going to extremes of laudation or
disapproval. Mr. Henderson has found the golden mean.”--_Irish
Times_ (Dublin), May 12, 1911.
