CAESAR AND CLEOPATRA: Shaw used his writing to attack social problems such as education, marriage, religion, government, health care, and class privilege. Shaw was particularly conscious of the exploitation of the working class. Set in Egypt, Caesar and Cleopatra, is a drama in which the 50-year-old Roman general meets the childish young Queen and exerts a fatherly influence on her. The subject is treated in modern terms, as the author professed a belief that there has been no perceptible progress in civilization since 53 B. C.
