The ISS was
founded in the U.S.A. in 2004 to give Shaw Studies more of an international
reach and perspective. The acronym “ISS” emphasizes Bernard Shaw’s
continuing presence as a talkative spirit with very relevant things to say,
often of the hyperbolic, satiric, paradoxical, and ironic sort. “Smiling
comedy,” he called it. |

ISS Conferences and Symposia, have occurred in the U.S.A., Canada, Ireland, and the UK. An ISS conference has been
