    Thanks sir for the video, it has got me from a grade 3 to a grade 6-7.
    I wrote a essay on Capitalism in an inspector calls, and I was wondering if you could mark it. Thanks!
    In the morality play, Priestley uses the construct of Mr Birling to exemplify how capitalism is a misleading ideology that not only provokes more violent and chaotic wars, but is a belief that contradict Christianity. Priestley presents capitalism as a sinful belief therefore forces his audience - the 1945 audience- to reject it. Furthermore, Priestley demotes capitalism and promotes socialism by contrasting the inspector with Mr birling, presenting the inspector as a omniscient being who, unlike Mr Birling sees how society approaches chaos, “fire and blood and anguish”.
    Priestley presents Mr Birlings “Unsinkable absolutely unsinkable”- Priestley uses this repetition judiciously to ridicule Mr Birling as he is almost presented as predictive, as if he is “portentous”, knowing of the future. However, Priestley establishes Mr Birling’s wisdom and great knowledge of the future as dramatically ironic, for the Edwardian audience are aware of how the titanic is to sink. Mr Birling is blind and fails to be insightful, merely a “hoax” for he is embarrassing himself in front of the audience. So perhaps Priestley could be illustrating how capitalists like Mr Birling are arrogant and extremely prideful, however they are blind as they fail to see where society is headed. This is shown further reinforced when Mr Birling ignorantly dismisses the chances of war - “fiddlesticks”, which demonstrates how Mr Birling is insensible as Priestley suggests that it is the accountability of the capitalists like Mr Birling who are discourteous to the truth and did not see how society approaches chaos- “fire and blood and anguish.” Therefore, through ridiculing Mr Birling, showing his utter blindness, Priestley assigns blame for the 2 world wars on the capitalists, who were ignorant and arrogant failing to learn their lesson not once but twice. Priestley teaches the 1945 society to reject Capitalism as it is an ideology led by blind and arrogant men and how if society rejects and moves away from capitalism, they could stop wars to come.
    Priestley constructs Mr Birling to symbolize the sin of greed. Mr Birling aims for, “lower costs and higher prices,” demonstrating his overwhelming avarice as he benefits at the cost of the proletariat. He openly and shamelessly declares how he exploits the weak and the vulnerable, with a prideful tone. Mr Birling, a representative of capitalism in the play, also represents the sin of greed, for he exploits his workers. Priestley writes ‘An Inspector Calls’ as a morality play to teach his audience a moral lesson from Christian teachings, and the fact that Priestley presents Mr Birling as a greedy capitalist, Priestley illustrates how capitalism contradicts Christianity as it causes people to commit the sin of greed. Priestley suggests that to be a capitalist, you must greedy, however he also suggests that greed is a major sin therefore, to not commit such a sin that is on par with blasphemy, it is society’s duty as Christian to reject capitalism. This argument that Priestley presents, is quite powerful for most of his audience were practicing Christians who would attend church regularly.
    Furthermore, by showing how capitalism contradicts Christianity, Priestley demonstrates how socialism equates to Christian beliefs. The words, “We are all of one body” is a refence to the Corinthians in the bible and would be widely familiar to the Edwardian audience as these words are recited in Sunday congregations in church. This Christian allusion demonstrates how everyone is equal and how the idea of a community is not “nonsense,”. Priestley might be illustrating how this foundational belief of socialism (equality for all) truly resonates with Christianity, and instead of contradicting Christianity, socialism corroborates with Christianity. Therefore, Priestley might be suggesting how because socialism is so similar to Christianity, it is the duty of Christians in society to reject capitalism and accept socialism.
    Priestley illustrates to his audience-the 1945 audience- how war is a direct outcome of capitalism. Mr Birling in his speech discusses how “aeroplanes will be able to go anywhere… automobiles… bigger and faster…and then ships.” Mr Birling exemplifies the tremendous progress that is being made by capitalist men like himself. It almost seems as if Mr Birling is taking pride for the rapid progress being made. However, when analyzed closer- “areoplanes… automobiles… ships”-we see that the progress being made by the capitalist men make war more possible. However, it not only makes wars more dangerous and chaotic, but it makes world wars more possible. Perhaps Priestley might be illustrating how war is a natural outcome of capitalism and Priestley could be illustrating how the 2 world wars was the fault of capitalism.
    Moreover, the inspector is a proxy to Priestley, a supernatural figure that almost seems to have been summoned from an incantation by Mr Birling, “a man has to mind his own business and look after himself and-” which is symbolic of how the inspector represents a supernatural and omniscient being, sent to teach man a lesson and correct their ways. This is reinforced by the end of the play, “if men do not learn their lesson, they will be taught it in fire and blood and anguish,” where the triadic phrase gives connotations of eternal and impending doom, a strong imagery of war and violence. Priestley might be illustrating, through the inspector, how if society carries on believing in capitalism and does not strive for a labour government, then chaos will overtake society, and just like the triadic phrase implies- “fire and blood and anguish”- a repetition of gore and bloodshed, there will be a repetition of WW1 and WW2.
    Through the didactic play, “an inspector calls” Priestley teaches society a moral lesson of how capitalism causes chaos within a society for it provokes wars and segregates society through the social system, and therefore teaches society to overcome the ideology of capitalism. Overall, Priestley generates odium for capitalism from the audience and thus attempts to persuade his audience to vote for a labour government that would bring justice to society.

    I assume this is a response to an AQA exam question - though I can find no such question on their past paper collection. I do find it quite disconcerting that the AQA exam question prompts students in the rubric to begin their responses by "Starting with this extract, explore how...". This is deeply unhelpful to those students who may be capable of producing a conceptualised response through a well-structured argument.

    How would you recommend writing an essay if it is a 'to what extent...' question? Because when I write essays with the 'to what extent' in history I usually do an agree paragraph, then two disagree paragraphs before summing up in a conclusion (and this gets me a grade 9 in history). Can I do the same here, because I'm not sure how the chronological order of the play would work for a 'to what extent' question.
