Questão | Responda |
Keller and Steve | -Both violate their social responsibility by shipping faulty cylinder heads. Keller goes further by letting Steve take the blame. -"big man" "little man" - degrees of responsibility within society. Steve = inability to accept his mistakes. Keller = big man - business success and standing in community. Labels = importance of honesty and responsibility in the community. |
Keller's punishment and relation to soldiers | -Punished through his death and the destruction of his family. -Play written soon after the war. Many gave their lives = moral. Keller's actions contradict this - ironic how people who suffer from Keller's mistakes are people who were willing to die in the war. |
Steve and Kate | -Steve = listened to Keller so guilty. -Kate = lied for Keller. |
Jim and Sue | -They knew Keller was lying, yet still accept him. -Failed their responsibility to society along with anyone else that accepted Keller. -However they are pragmatic = calmer because they didn't confront Keller. |
Larry's death | -Makes Keller and Kate recognize their wider social responsibility. -Synecdoche for all pilots killed by the cylinder heads. -Keller viewed the personal benefit as outweighing the hurt done to society before finding out about Larry. |
