George Bernard Shaw, his life and works; a critical biography (authorized) . tor; he lacks that romance, that powerof dramatic visualization, which is a quality of all true oratory.While it is true that people do not orate in England asthey do in America, still there is a vast difference between theborn orator, like Jaures or Mrs. Besant, and the practisedpublic speaker, like Shaw. All that could be acquired, Shawacquired. Not Charles Bradlaugh himself had a more thoroughtraining than had Shaw. He is facile, fluent and fertile; hedoes not leave all his qualities behind him when he mountsthe platform. In fine, Shaw has fulfilled to the letter his earlyvow, solemnly taken the night he joined the Zetetical Society.He has delivered considerably more than a thousand publicaddresses, and the best of them were masterpieces of their kind.And yet Shaw has only a very ordinary voice; and in orderto make himself comfortably heard by a large audience he hasto be very careful with his articulation and to speak as thoughhe were addressing the auditor furthest from him. 144..

Shaw was once completelyfloored by a workman, who rose after he had completed a mag-nificent pyrotechnic display, and said: I know quite well thatBernard Shaw is very clever at argument, and that when Isit down he will make mincemeat of everything I say. Butwhat does that matter to me? I still have my principles.Shaw had to admit, as he once told me in speaking of theincident, that this was unanswerable and thoroughly soundat botto
