George Bernard Shaw's obituaries in the press and over the radio have emphasized everything about him except what made him great-the fact that he was an ardent and active socialist. This appraisal is not ours but his own, made on the occasion of a speech on his 70th birthday on July 26, 1926. It heads the list of Shavianisms presented below. Insights and sparkling epigrams like these are, we believe, Shaw's best obituary.This article can also be found at the Monthly Review website, where most recent articles are published in full.Click here to purchase a PDF version of this article at the Monthly Review website
