- Résumé : In "The Shaving of Shagpat," renowned English novelist George Meredith unveils a fantastical world brimming with magic, adventure, and allegory. Known for his probing societal critiques in works such as "The Egoist," Meredith makes a remarkable foray into fantasy, imbuing this narrative with his distinctive wit and insightful observations. The story unfolds around Shagpat, an extraordinarily hairy man who is revered as a magical oracle in his city. An ambitious barber, Shibli Bagarag, is given the monumental task of shaving Shagpat, a feat that can only be accomplished by overcoming numerous mystical trials. Meredith, in this allegorical tale, explores themes of destiny, transformation, and the quest for enlightenment. His characteristic satirical flair is evident as he examines the follies and pretensions of society through this fantastical lens. "The Shaving of Shagpat" is a captivating blend of fantasy and satire that offers both entertainment and thoughtful commentary. Its imaginative narrative, memorable characters, and poignant themes make it a standout offering from Meredith's diverse literary repertoire.
