The Devil's Disciple is an 1897 play written by Irish dramatist George Bernard Shaw. The play is Shaw's eighth, and after Richard Mansfield's original 1897 American production it was his first financial success, which helped to affirm his career as a playwright. It was published in Shaw's 1901 collection Three Plays for Puritans together with Captain Brassbound's Conversion and Caesar and Cleopatra. Set in Colonial America during the Revolutionary era, the play tells the story of Richard Dudgeon, a local outcast and self-proclaimed "Devil's disciple". In a twist characteristic of Shaw's love of paradox, Dudgeon sacrifices himself in a Christ-like gesture despite his professed infernal allegiance.

  • «Учень диявола» (англ. The Devil's Disciple) — п’єса ірландського письменника Бернарда Шоу 1896 року. Входить в цикл з трьох п’єс, які автор іронічно назвав «П’єси для пуритан» (інші 2 п’єси: «Цезар і Клеопатра» і «Звернення капітана Брассбаунда»). (uk)
  • Pekelník (1897, v originále Devil's Disciple) je komedie anglického dramatika irského původu Georga Bernarda Shawa, nositele Nobelovy ceny za literaturu za rok 1925. Originální název znamená doslova Ďáblův žák, česky byla hra také uváděna pod názvem Čertovo kvítko. Jde o první z divadelních her, která vyšla roku 1901 ve sbírce Tři hry pro puritány (Three Plays for Puritane) společně s hrami Caesar a Kleopatra (1898, Caesar and Cleopatra) a Obrácení kapitána Brassbounda (1899, Captain Brassbound's Conversion). Puritáni však nebyli pro Shawa náboženští horlivci, nýbrž střízliví realisté, kteří stejně jako on zavrhovali sentiment i sebeklam a prosazovali osvobozující poznání. (cs)
