My report of ''Pigmalion''


"Pygmalion" is a drama of George Bernard Shaw, which was premiered in 1913.In this work, it can be said that from his own experience in from Ireland, criticism of the class system of Bernard Shaw only has been treated. Problems with language will be able to stand out among them. I want to take up in connection with what is surrounding the class. At a high level, and linguist Higgins is a genius of phonetics daughter Eliza selling flowers, and shed Hometown anyone from the speech, I met some freak coincidence, and stormed into his house, this work is a way of speaking of lady ask to me to Professor. Begins-rich experiment in spirit dwell in her home, to correct the utterance ghetto her. Then it is spoken Eliza that could be seen as a lady at the party. First, Begins is a linguist can be shed from the land of the people from the words that people speak, but at that time, this means that you had a close relationship language, class, and region. I think sometimes stage of this story is that London, class issues and language that said they had seen many. Two cock - the word has been used in this work but this term is considered to be both a local dialect, the poor, without education in general, and low status from. This word was used as symbolically, in this work, and probably wanted to tell criticism of class and also words. Begins Professor is a high status to teach manners and words used to Eliza. This means that those of high social status know the education, but I think I suspect that means that those of low status, such as Eliza do not know education. In addition, in order to raise tailoring to the lady Eliza, Begins Professor changed the look of her clothes and hairstyles and first. High-grade dress, accessories, it just only, once you have from people who see her for the first time, she was like a lady at all. This thing, a thing called class can be said that could determine just looks. Further, it was able to be a lady Eliza that was transformed with only changing the word to use, would be to say that the language may be similar appearance. It is Eliza who can be seen with stunning lady, but look at the Pickering and Colonel Begins Professor, his is a doll made by the professor, now the bet is over, but to keenly aware that there is no place for him here is not obtained, and go out of the house of Professor. This represent class was covered up have no meaning. It can be said that as described above, those separate classes are sometimes referred to as just words and apparel. This is, would not that Bernard wanted to tell the most. Why were able to separate the words class and it looks just good. I think it's the strongest part of the criticism of class society of Bernard.
