CHARACTERIZATION – Mr. Birling

I think Mr. Birling is a quite aggressive person. The way he talks to the inspector seems a bit offensive to me. And I also think that he’s a bit disrespectful. The way he talks to everyone else shows that he thinks that he is the most important person in the world, just because he’s got his business.

He seems to know a lot about business things and wants to teach the younger generation of his family about the way they must live their lifes. Some things he tells them may be true, but I think he’s a bit too self-important, because he is always talking and almost never listening. On the other side, he is a good business man. But also in business things, he seems to look after himself first before anyone else.

I personally don’t like him very much.
