Shi, Wei. Xiao Bona [ID D27956].
According to Shi, Shaw's greatness lay in four areas : 1) Shaw's struggle against capitalism and bourgeois society. 2) Shaw's struggle against militarism and imperialism. 3) Shaw's unwavering support of socialism, as evidenced in his endorsement of the Soviet Union. 4) Shaw's struggle against the exploitation and oppression of small, weak, colonial countries. What Shi emphasizes are Shaw's moral and social commitment, not Shaw's dramatic achievements. Shaw is admired as a defender of justice, a voice for the weak, and an upright moralist.
