1907\. With preface by Bernard Shaw. English versions by Mrs. Bernard Shaw, St. John Hankin and John Pollock. Shaw considered Eugene Brieux of France the greatest playwright in Europe after Ibsen; and Brieux's rather shocking studies of social problems certainly suggest Ibsen, especially Brieux's Les avaries (Damaged Goods), which discussed sexually transmitted disease. Contents: Maternity; The Three Daughters of M. Dupont; Damaged Goods; and Maternity (new version).
