    An Inspector Calls and J B Priestley’s political journey

    Article written by: Alison Cullingford

    Cullingford explores how J B Priestley's childhood in Bradford and experiences

    during two world wars shaped his socialist beliefs and fuelled the anger of his

    play An Inspector Calls, a work that revolves around ideas of social responsibility

    and guilt.

    An Inspector Calls poses troubling questions: how can people live together? To

    what extent are individuals responsible for others? Gareth Lloyd Evans described

    the play as ‘perhaps the clearest expression made by Priestley of his belief that

    “no man is an island” – the theme is guilt and social responsibility’. This article

    explores how and why J B Priestley came to this belief.

    Priestley was born in 1894 in Bradford, in Yorkshire’s West Riding. Bradford was

    an industrial town soon to become a city (in 1897), which had grown very quickly

    around the wool and dyeing industries. Young ‘Jack’ Priestley himself found work

    in the wool trade, as a junior clerk with Helm and Company, whose offices were in

    the (now demolished) Swan Arcade. Jack found this work dull, but otherwise, for

    a youngster who enjoyed sport, landscape, literature, music, art and socialising,

    Bradford had much to offer. In his novel Bright Day, he looked back from the

    austerity of 1946 to a golden age of freedom, plenty, hospitality, conviviality,

    generosity, solid comfort and strong community, where, at Christmas:

    “ brass bands played and choirs sang in the streets; you went not to one friend’s

    house but to a dozen; acres of rich pound cake and mince-pies were washed down

    by cataracts of old beer and port, whisky and rum; the air was fragrant and thick

    with cigar smoke, as if the very mill chimneys had taken to puffing them.”

    (Priestley).

    The bright young lad realised even then, though, that Bradford was not perfect.

    Working and living conditions had improved from the hellish days of the 1840s,

    when cholera and starvation were serious threats, but many still lived in poverty.

    Priestley’s political views were heavily influenced by the West Riding’s strong

    Nonconformist socialist traditions, embodied by the Bradford Pioneer newspaper

    and epitomised by his schoolteacher father, Jonathan. Jack also noticed that the

    city’s respectable folk could be smug, even hypocritical: ‘badly-divided men’ were

    pompously religious on Sundays, but on Saturday nights ‘coarsely raffish’, ill-using

    young women. An Inspector Calls also shattered the world of such a family, this

    time, however, revealing the true social and political consequences of the

    selfishness of the Birlings and others like them.
