An Inspector Calls
18 eLearning modules · CPD Certified · SCORM
This course offers a detailed exploration of J.B. Priestley’s An Inspector Calls, focusing on its plot, characters, and social message. Students will examine key figures such as Arthur, Sybil, Sheila, and Eric Birling, alongside Gerald Croft, Inspector Goole, and the unseen Eva Smith/Daisy Renton. The course investigates central themes of class, gender, age, and social responsibility, analysing how Priestley’s use of form, structure, and language reinforces his critique of inequality. Consideration will also be given to casting, performance, and staging choices, enabling students to appreciate how different interpretations bring Priestley’s moral and political vision to life.
