How Does Priestly Present Birling in Act One and Two

Birding is presented as very smug and egotistical when priestlike uses the stage directions confidently and laughs complacently. These show Birding is non afraid to show his importance and status. It excessively shows his arrogant nature that emphasizes he wants to dominate the situation, yet when the inspector arrives he loses his authority. Complacently shows he thinks other people with a lower status be stupid and unimportant.Priestly wants the audience to trance Brings inflated opinion of himself and show Birding is the polar of Priestly moral. Birding especially expresses his self- righteousness to the Inspector when he says l dont see that its any concern Of yours how I choose to run my business. This shows that Birding thinks he is higher(prenominal) class and more important than the Inspector and he therefore is not worthy of an opinion. It also shows Birding does not like to be challenged so bequeath show off to prove he is better and assert authority.Birding is revea led to be very egotistic and have no understanding of community this is shown when e says a firearm has to represent his own focal point. This shows Birding is only worried or so himself and his money. It also conveys his lack of empathy towards those not as fortunate as him. Brings selfish philosophy conflicts with Priestly message about responsibility and community which is empathic by the doorbell. The doorbell gives the audience a clue of what the moral of the laugher is. Priestly uses dramatic banter to show that Birding is patronizing and as an prototypic capitalistic Birding looks down on others.He says thatll have ergot all these capitalist versus labor agitations and all these silly little war sc ares. It displays that Birding thinks that Labor are just lower class people that dont know what theyre talking about. besides Brings narcissistic attitude emphasizes his lack of empathy like how he doesnt see his employees as people but just cheap labor. Priestly uses dr amatic caustic remark to make the audience suspicious of Brings judgment and wonder what else he could be wrong about.In Act Two Birding is shown to be very arrogant when e says l protest against the way in which my daughter, a young single(a) girl is being dragged into this. This implies Birding is more caring towards Sheila than Eric. This is because Sheila is marrying a rich, respectable homophile that can be bring good to Brings business whilst Eric isnt doing anything to help Birding make money. Unmarried girl suggests Birding feels a woman is not strong without a man by her side and sees women as something to make his life more comfortable.In windup I think Priestly presented Birding in n exaggerated way that would show the audience what he thinks the world is like. Priestly is showing that he thought the people of 1 912 needed to learn to become a community and be responsible for each other as a war and other horrors is coming soon. He then uses dramatic irony to show tha t if people had seen that they are responsible for each other than a war could have been avoided. Priestly, as a model socialist, therefore wishes that in 191 2 he could have done more about back up others to realist just like the Inspector did.
