An Inspector Calls by J.B.Priestly Who killed Eva Smith? Essay

An Inspector Calls by J.B.Priestly Who killed Eva smith?There ar many different factors involved with the death of Eva metalworkerthat should be considered while asking the question whom ultimatelykilled Eva Smith. Each unity of the birling family (including GeraldCroft) pushed Eva Smith that extra bit closer to killing herself, unlessno one individual was individually responsible for her death. Whether one person was more to blest than any other it is hard to say. Althoughthese people taked to her abject end to life, her positionin life and society are in addition greatly to blame.It is Mr. Arthur Birling who starts off the train of events, as he isthe first of all to come in to contact with Eva Smith. Mr. Birling sacked EvaSmith from his pulverisation after she and a few others went on strike,demanding higher wages. As Mr. Birling said to the inspector, Shedhad a lot to say - far too over frequently - so she had to go. I dont see thathe did anything wrong, anyone in hi s position would start out done thesame. And as he says, its his duty to keep labour be down. Hesa hardheaded businessman, as he calls himself, hed do anything tomake as much profit as possible. He wasnt to know what would happento Eva Smith deuce years down the line, after he sacked her. As he saidIf you dont come down sharply on some of theses people, theyd in briefbe asking for the earth.Although Mr. Birling didnt do anything wrong in my eyes, he wasntportrayed too well throughout the play. He ushers himself to bearrogant, self-complacent and self-absorbed. One major flaw in Mr.Birlings behaviour is that he seems to show no remorse at all forEva, and after all he did help drive her to commit suicide. He showsno regret for dismissing E... ...ike stop herlife, and she wouldnt be lying on a slab with her insides burnt out.After all, she was the person who decided to kill herself, she couldhave tried for another job, she could have trustworthy the money fromEric and she could have made him responsible for the baby, when itcame.In conclusion, it would be cheating(prenominal) to put the blame onto one person,when each and every one of them helped contribute to Evas miserableend to life. It may be more accurate to blame society, her class, andthe time in which she lived. No real crime has been committed in thisplay, but I believe that the Birling family should share the moral accountability for this young womans pitiful suicide. Then maybe nexttime they are about to do something selfish theyll think of thedevestation they might bring to others, and not just the benefit theybring to themselves.
