An Inspector calls Arthur Birling 1. Arthur is a very proud man and he thinks that men will always be able to cope on their own. He is a very noble man and I do not think that he would ever ask for help from a woman, I also think that he would tell his son that he must not ask help from a female. I can tell by the way that he presents himself that he expects a lot of respect from the members of his household because he is the man who is producing the wealth. I think that he is used to talking down to people at work, being the boss of a large company and he brings it home when he shouldn’t. When Arthur says ‘… a man has to make his own way – has to look after himself’’ he shows us that he does not put a lot of trust in people and that maybe he is a afraid of loosing what he has so he stays a closed book to protect himself and his family. 2. Arthur was very harsh to Eva Smith a former employee at Birling and Co until she asked for higher pay. I think that Arthur was shocked at Eva Smith’s cheek at asking such a question and it maybe scared him, thought that he was loosing his touch. He may of thought that someone wasn’t scared of him no more and the only way to fix that was to get rid of her. He also couldn’t afford more pay so I think that this embarrassed him slightly and would feel awkward with her working for him afterwards if he hadn’t have sacked him. I think when he sacked her, she became deeply depressed and this may have led to her suicide. 3. Arthur cannot accept the responsibility because he believes that a businessman has a special stereotype and he thinks that he must follow it to be successful. I think that he is very determined and that nothing will take him away from his business not even his family and close friends. 4. Arthur believes that his responsibilities are to pay his employees as less as possible and work them as hard as he can.
