    THE SHAVIAN THEATRE OF IDEAS (MODERN DRAMA) The predominating influence in determining Shaw to turn to the drama was the example of Ibsen and equally prominent was his love of debating‚ in which he had shown how irresistible it was for him to counter his arguments himself if no one else would. These influential strains compelled him to choose the kind of play in which the characters undertake this dual task of proposer and opposer.  In 1892‚ he made it into Widower’s Houses‚ and thereafter‚ for

They fall‚ they rip the grass‚ they intersect The curve of earth‚ and striking‚ break their own; They make us

    How does Owen Sheers use language‚ form and structure to explore ideas about separation and division in ‘Winter Swans’? The Poem ‘Winter Swans’ seems to convey a strong theme of natural love. The poem begins with setting a scene of a peaceful day‚ where nature seems to be stilled after the torrential weather that is referred to in the first line through ‘The clouds had given their all.’ It goes on to say that there was then a ‘break’‚ and throughout the poem the poet uses words such as ‘silent’
