Why is Eric Birling the Most important character in An Inspector Calls?
He is an important character as one of J.B Priestley's themes was RESPONSIBILITY and he showed this all throughout the play as he seemed awkward and embarrassed he was also a hardened drinker. He is a thief and he later feels the guilt of this when he realises he contributed in encouraging Eva Smith's death and that he was the father of her unborn child. By the end of the play Eric had taken responsibility for his actions along side Sheila. this signifies hope as Sheila and Eric are the younger generation in the play so this shows that we can use our talents to help have responsibility on others.

What irony is shown in An Inspector Calls?
there are many, but the main ones would be: - Mr.Birling's mention of the 'unsinkable titanic' which is ironic because it is the exact opposite to his prediction - also birling's view on the world's development and lack of time for war, this is ironic because straight after this is the 1st world war followed by the second. - when the inspector rings the doorbell of the house, birling is explaining to Eric and Gerald about responsibility ; the inspector explains the moral meaning of responsibility and shows Mr.Birling he is wrong . this is all i can i think of now, hope it helped ;) there is also a lot of dramatic irony used in this play, for example the second world war and the "unsinkable titanic" alongside the ending where the inspector leaves, they discover hes a fake, go back to normal the get a call explaining that a girl had just died, this is irony as it brings out their true colours, and show their reaction/releif when the inspector is found to be a fake, then theyre back to where they started. it's ironic because they discover no girl had died, they celebrate, then the real Eva Smith does die.
