Abstract
Between 19th and 20th century British dramatist and writer John Galsworthy is well known for his incisive examination of socioeconomic class in his works. The complex social relationships which constitute a key the subject in John Galsworthy's body of work is frequently addressed in his theatrical works. Galsworthy critically explores in his plays the conflicts, tensions, and inequities brought about by society's rigorous classification of people according to their social station. His depiction of socioeconomic class goes beyond only highlighting economic disparities; instead, he explores how these inequalities affect persons emotionally and psychologically. As an unbiased observer of current English life, he demonstrated the economic, social, and socio-political via the plays he wrote in a real, and unbiased manner while also suggesting implicit remedies. He promoted changes in society while exposing the absurdity of a few conventional ideas with objective objectivity. The purpose of this essay is to highlight the awful metaphors that John Galsworthy utilizes in Conflict to express social consciousness, accompanied by some implicit fixes. Tragic vision is caused by arrogance, lack of human perception, severe fanaticism, rigidity, class awareness, unwavering positions, fighting group, obstinacy, and the will to prevail.
