Pigmalión, de George Bernard Shaw, es un clásico atemporal que explora los temas de la clase social, la identidad y la transformación. La obra gira en torno al profesor Henry Higgins, experto en fonética, que acepta el reto de transformar a Eliza Doolittle, una pobre florista con un fuerte acento cockney, en una refinada dama de habla impecable. A medida que Eliza se somete a este cambio lingüÃstico y social, no sólo cambia su apariencia externa, sino que también se enfrenta a cuestiones de autoestima y expectativas sociales.
La obra satiriza hábilmente las rÃgidas estructuras de clase de la Inglaterra eduardiana y cuestiona las nociones de superioridad inherente basadas en el habla y los modales. Los ingeniosos diálogos de Shaw y sus agudas observaciones hacen de Pigmalión una exploración entretenida y sugerente de las complejidades del comportamiento humano y las normas sociales.
Esta edición presenta el texto original de Shaw -que sirvió de base para el musical Mi bella dama- y ofrece a los lectores una ventana al panorama social de principios del siglo XX, al tiempo que ofrece una visión intemporal de la dinámica de poder del lenguaje y las expectativas sociales.
