An Inspector Calls - Themes and Intervention Points
Themes and what the author is saying about the theme (beliefs)...
Social class
Being wealthy does not allow one to use their power to harm or abuse others; being wealthy is not a mark of good character.
Individuality and Community
Author rejects society's ideas about our responsibilities towards others. Through the words, actions and rel'ships of the Inspector, the audience notes that we are all interconnected and our choices impact others.
Human rights
All people are equal, regardless of their economic situation or class or gender.
Responsibility
Social responsibility
We must look out for the poor and marginalised.
Personal responsibility
We all must be held to account for our own actions - to own up.
Gender
Women should be paid and treated equally; to some she is cheap labour; treated as a physical object and not a person and an object to rescue. The author rejects these ideas..
We should respect and value people, irrespective of gender.
Morality
Being wealthy or poor is not an indicator of one's morality, nor of their moral obligations.
Intervention Points (gaps/silences)
Pp.45-46 - Eva and Mrs B might have had a conversation outside (Eva may have waited for her, or even overheard a conversation on the way in where Sybil's name was mentioned). What was said?
Need to avoid her mentioning Eric.
