An Inspector Calls The Inspector's Speech

This lesson looks at the Inspector’s speech in Act 3. The lesson includes a mind map starter with extension of a description of the Inspector followed by an analysis of the speech including Priestley’s techniques of repetition, symbolism and the intensity of language. The following task is based on whole class research of religious imagery including keywords such as ‘sermon’, ‘prophecy’ and ‘redemption’. The final discussion is on the speech as a climax and Priestley’s intention. Each task is differentiated with extensions.
