Synopsis

This is a self-contained study book which aims to lead the student through the section-by-section study of "An Inspector Calls" within its social, historical and cultural context. It draws out key points, themes and characterization, and activities explore each of the main characters in depth, focusing on how they are developed and how Priestley uses them to achieve dramatic tension through a series of startling revelations. Students are encouraged to read widely around the text and to look at the social and political issues of the Edwardian era. Group discussion and individual written assignments help students to form their own opinions as to what function the Inspector performs and what he might represent. The book can be used alone or alongside the "Hodder English 4" course book, and offers comprehensive coverage of National Curriculum requirements for the study of literary texts at Key Stage 4. Activities and stimuli in the text help to generate written coursework for GCSE English.
