im doing an essay on the play ''An Inspector Calls'' by J.B Priestly, could u all tell me what i can improve??

Question

The Play takes place between 1910-1912, a time where men where considered
more dominant and far more worthy than women, people were either rich or poor
and treated according to their class with no equality, high class would abuse, insult
and crumble away the reputation of the lower/middle class society.
J.B Priestly had written the play to show how higher class people
often mis-use their power.
The Characters all have a large role in the play,
Mr. Arthur Birling who is the man of the house and is very dedicated to his business which is
show when he states that he likes his daughters engagement party just because he is getting
a few higher business oppurtunities and isn't much concerned about his daughter's happiness,
he is the type who likes to creep his way out of his mistakes.
Mrs. Sybil Birling is shown as a cold woman who looks at her grown up son and daughter as
children and she is, just like her husband, concerned about her class which is shown when
she dismisses Eva as ''girls of that class''.
Sheila Birling is the daughter, who is shown as exiting, playful and also naive,
when realising about Eva's death, she shows guilt unlike her mother and father who deny
any involvement in Eva's death and finally, there is Eric Birling, known as a heavy drinker by
the audience, he is in his mid-twenties and is described as ''half shy, half assertive''.
The Act opens with Arthur Birling and his family celebrating the engagement of Sheila Birling
and Gerald Croft, in this act, we find out that mr. Birling is someone who predicts things that
turn out to be wrong such as a world war never hapenning, he says to Gerald ''you ought to like
this part, finchley to me its exactly the same part as your father gets from him''.
This shows how he and his son in law are almost the same, Birling also mentions how his and
the Crofts business will improve because of the marriage which shows hes more bothered about
work rather than the happiness of seeing his daughter's marriage.
Later on, this celebration is interupted when an inspector named Goole comes to interigate the
family on the death of Eva Smith who worked in Birlings company and Mr. birling sacked her,
she was then struggling and started to wonder around in prostitute hang-outs, she then met Gerald
who told sheila that hes ''busy on business'', he had a relationship with eva who had changed her
name to 'Daisy Renton', Eric who is a heavy drinker had impregnated her and also stole fifty pounds
from birling, when daisy went to mrs. birling for help, she put her down and denied her, being fed up
of life, Daisy commited suicide, another fact is that sheila complained to a shop where daisy worked
and got her sacked from there too, the point of this whole story is that rich people and families just like
the birlings always mis-use their power, and it shows how bottom class people were looked down upon,
the only ones willing to change are eric and sheila, the younger generation.
When Sheila heard that inspector Goole wasn’t a real inspector, she said “(bitterly) I suppose we’re all nice people now.” Bitterly shows that she’s being sarcastic, and she didn’t mean what she said, she meant the opposite. She said this because when they said the truth about everything it makes them nice people, but it doesn’t, and she thought that they all were a nice and a perfect family, but her thoughts were wrong after she heard what everyone in her family had done.
Sheila’s character changed from a girl who had a perfect life, to a caring girl. She couldn’t keep the truth from the inspector because he seems to know it already.
When Mrs Birling hears that Inspector Goole wasn’t a real inspector, she was surprised and worried, “I felt it all the time. He never talked like one. He never even looked like one.” She didn’t know that he’s not a real Inspector; if she did she should’ve said it. She was trying to look like she wasn’t fooled by him, like everyone else did. Mrs Birling’s character doesn’t seem to change in the play; it stays the same cold woman.
Mr. Birling, like any arrogant, self minded person, as soon as he thinks the trouble is over, he forgets the
guilt. When sheila says ''your pretending everything was just as it was before'' and birling simply replies
''We've been had''.
This is becuase they discover that the inspector isn't who he reallt claims to be. His name, perhaps,
is trying to suggest that Inspector Goole is not a living, being at all. His name ''Goole'' sounds exactly
like the spirit ''Ghoul'' and the author could possibly be trying to hint to us that the Inspector is our
conscience speaking to us or a good spirit trying to uncover all truths.

sorry for the lenth, try not to get bored, i just need some help so if u can, please do help

tell me in detail what to add aswell plz

Answer 1

I saw a wonderful production of this play just last year. The director decided to have Eva included in the cast. She never spoke; just basically hovered near whichever character was being questioned at the time, almost as if enjoying the character's discomfiture. BTW, it was done on a bare stage with no set, and at the end, the door to the loading dock opened, and Goole exited through masses of fog.

Anyway, I think you've captured things pretty well. I would, however, go over your spelling and grammar to make sure everything's correct in that line.

You might consider a brief comparison to another work. For centuries, the upper classes have looked down on the lower classes, as if their poverty was their own fault. Charles Dickens was the foremost champion of the poor in his time, having been apprenticed in a boot-blacking (shoe polish) factory when he was eight or ten; his father also went to debtor's prison several times. He says in 'Christmas Carol' that 'those who condemn the poor for being poor also profess to condemn the pursuit of wealth', or words to that effect. The Ghost of Christmas Present tells Scrooge: 'This boy is Ignorance; this girl is Want. Beware them both; but most of all, beware this boy.' Ignorance is the root of a lot of the world's troubles, and the Birling's are certainly ignorant, as well as selfish.

Too bad the Alistair Sim version of 'An Inspector Calls' isn't available on DVD; it was excellent!! I think you would have enjoyed it. I saw it on tv only once, many years ago, but it has always been one of my favorites. His Goole ranks right up there with his Scrooge.

Good luck!! I hope you get a good grade!

to get for the time of his thoughts relating to the way the top classification taken care of & concept relating to the decrease classification at that element. additionally he had the concept "anybody is to blame for the different" and the movements of one individual might impression many others.
