Major Barbara

En savoir plus sur le livre

The play explores the clash between idealism and pragmatism through Barbara Undershaft, a devoted Major in the Salvation Army, and her wealthy father, Andrew Undershaft, a munitions manufacturer. Their reunion ignites a moral conflict over the nature of charity and the impact of wealth on society. As Barbara grapples with her father's financial contributions, which she views as morally tainted, Undershaft argues that his business provides more substantial aid to the poor than her charitable efforts. The narrative challenges traditional notions of morality and social responsibility.
