| Abstract | ||
| This study aims at showing some devices, which George Bernard Shaw(1856-1950) uses in his plays, that help in clarifying his sense of humor. Three plays have been chosen for that purpose; they are (Man and Superman), (Candida) and (Arms and the Man). The plays tackle some social sensitive affairs with Shaw’s sense of humor. This manipulation of humor shocks the reader with unexpected possibilities. Nevertheless, the reader discovers upon reading the text that these possibilities are more real than reality itself. | ||
