Notes
Shaw to Henderson, 3 May 1932, George Bernard Shaw Papers, in the Southern Historical Collection, University of North Carolina Library, Chapel Hill. All subsequent references to letters from this collection will appear in the text, using the abbreviation "SHC."
B. C. Rosset in Shaw of Dublin: The Formative Years has shown Henderson's inaccurate citation of the dates of Shaw's enrollment in grammar school to have been due to Henderson's reliance upon Shaw's memory for the information. Rosset questions factual accuracy in Henderson's work on Shaw as a whole. See GBS: Man of the Century, p. 19; Rosset, p. 178.
Rambler, no. 60, as quoted by Donald Greene in "The Uses of Autobiography" in Essays in Eighteenth Century Biography, ed. Philip B. Daghlian (1968), p. 43.
Proof page 100 (Shaw's numbering) of Shaw's corrections of Archibald Henderson's proofsheets for Bernard Shaw: Playboy and Prophet (1932), in SHC. All further references to these corrections appear in the text; when appropriate, corrections are cited by page number as they appear in the published version of Playboy and Prophet, hereafter abbreviated to "PP."
PP, p. 323. Henderson found this a bit much to say in his own voice; thus, he recast it into this form: "what Shaw once described as his 'inhuman clearness of analysis'. . . ."
Henderson quotes from the Supplement to The Saturday Review, May 13, 1899, on typescript page 357.
