Resource summary
Sybil Birling
Proud of her reputation and social status
Will do anything to protect them
More important than the hapiness of her children
Even when being questioned by the Inspector, she won't back down
Has traditional values
Stricly follows rules of etiquette
Good reputation of being polite will improve her family's status
Traditional: "When you're married you'll realise..."
Proud: "I was the only one of you who didn't give in to him"
Prejudiced: "As if a girl of that sort would ever refuse money!"
Cruel: "I used my influence to have it refused"
Is Mr Birling's "social superior"
Comes from a family with higher social status that Arthur's
Always reminding her family to have better manners
Tells Sheila off for using slang
She supports charity but is not very charitable
Has the autority to decide who is "deserving" and who is not
She doesn't change
Self-centered
"I accept no blame for it at all"
Doesn't learn from the Inspector's message
Stage directions show her mind is made up
"hautily"
"Very sharply"
"bitterly
