Shaw's play "Pygmalion" diverges from the original myth by focusing more on social class issues and the impact of education and language on identity. Unlike the myth where Pygmalion falls in love with his creation, Shaw's play emphasizes the transformation of Eliza's character and her assertion of independence. Additionally, the ending of Shaw's play differs from the myth by leaving the audience with an ambiguous conclusion rather than a traditional happy ending.

There is no Roman version of the myth of Achilles.
A similar myth is that of Pygmalion and Galatea. In this story, Pygmalion falls in love with a statue he carves and prays to the goddess Aphrodite to bring it to life. She grants his wish, and the statue becomes a real woman named Galatea. Like Orpheus and Eurydice, this myth explores themes of love, loss, and the power of art.
In Shaw's play "Pygmalion," the character that corresponds to Pygmalion from the Greek myth is Professor Henry Higgins. Just as the mythical Pygmalion falls in love with the statue he creates and desires to bring it to life, Higgins transforms Eliza Doolittle, a flower girl, into a refined lady, attempting to shape her identity according to his ideals. Both characters explore themes of creation, transformation, and the complexities of love and identity.
