Critical Essays Themes in Inherit the Wind

Introduction

When considering the themes of Inherit the Wind, the student should keep in mind that the play was first published in 1955, not 1925 when the Scopes trial took place. During the early 1950s, known as the McCarthy era, actors and writers were blacklisted — that is, refused work because they had been accused of having some connection to Communism.

During this period, people stopped expressing their thoughts, beliefs, or ideas, afraid they would lose their livelihood or worse. Being writers, Lawrence and Lee became aware of the dangerous situation created when laws are passed limiting the freedom to think and speak. When writing Inherit the Wind, the playwrights were not concerned with the controversy between evolution and creation, the focus of the Scopes trial. Instead, they were concerned with the censoring or limiting of an individual's freedom to think. The authors used the issue of evolution as a metaphor for control over an individual's thoughts or beliefs. Inherit the Wind, then, is Lawrence and Lee's response to the McCarthy era.

Freedom of Thought

The predominant theme in Inherit the Wind is freedom of thought. Cates, like Scopes, is arrested for violating the Butler Law, which prohibits teaching evolutionary theory in public schools in Tennessee, effectively censoring what could be taught in public school classrooms. Drummond, Lawrence and Lee's voice throughout the play, fights passionately against censoring knowledge. When knowledge is censored, the right to think is limited. Drummond is adamant about everyone having the right to think. When Brady accuses Drummond of " . . . destroying everybody's belief in the Bible, and in God," Drummond responds, "You know that's not true. I'm trying to stop you bigots and ignoramuses from controlling the education of the United States."

Another issue important to Lawrence and Lee is tolerance for different or conflicting beliefs. At the conclusion of the play, Hornbeck continues to denounce Brady after his death. Drummond vehemently tells him that, ". . . You have no more right to spit on his religion than you have a right to spit on my religion! Or my lack of it! . . . Brady had the same right as Cates: the right to be wrong!"

In a society that honors freedom of thought, it is necessary to value beliefs that differ from one's own. Even though Drummond is referring to the evolutionist/fundamentalist conflict in Inherit the Wind, the issue of intolerance and lack of respect for differing beliefs and thoughts is evident during the McCarthy era as well. People's lives were ruined for even the slightest connection to Communism. Drummond's comment, "the right to be wrong," is a plea that was common to the McCarthy era.

Another major theme in Inherit the Wind is the value of every person's ability to think and have ideas. The message that Lawrence and Lee convey through Drummond is that when people think and have ideas, they are not standing still. An idea to Drummond " . . . is a greater monument than a cathedral." The authors believe people need to be shaken up, confronted with new information, knowledge, and ideas so they can think independently and not merely conform with the majority or most popular opinion. Drummond tells the court that he is trying " . . . to prevent the clock-stoppers [the fundamentalists] from dumping a load of medieval nonsense [the Butler Law] into the United States Constitution." Lawrence and Lee convey the message that people must stand up and continue to fight against laws that promote censorship and unthinking conformity. Drummond tells Cates that the fight for freedom is never finished.

Search for Truth

Truth is another theme important to Lawrence and Lee. When Drummond defends Cates in the courtroom, he is seeking the truth. He tells the courtroom that "right" and "wrong" have no meaning to him; only " . . . Truth has meaning." Lawrence and Lee convey their respect for differing perspectives: Neither evolutionism nor fundamentalism is right or wrong. At the conclusion of the play, Drummond walks off with both a Bible and a copy of Darwin's On the Origin of Species in his brief case.

Lawrence and Lee's belief in a continuing search for truth is represented in Drummond's Golden Dancer speech to Cates. He tells Cates to " . . . look behind the paint . . . if it's a lie — show it up for what it really is." The authors are referring to the Butler Law, as well as the McCarthy era blacklisting.

Lawrence and Lee urge their audiences to pay attention to what is going on around them; to protect their freedoms by thinking, having ideas, and searching for truth. Only by being open-minded and respecting differing beliefs and viewpoints can freedoms be guaranteed.

Inherit the Wind

By jerome lawrence , robert lee, inherit the wind themes, the danger of a limited perspective.

The town of Hillsboro is extremely homogenous. The citizens attend the same church, hold the same beliefs, and join together to condemn Bert Cates, a man who dared express an opinion different from theirs. In that sense, a limited perspective is dangerous to others, for anyone who the town deems different or an outsider is at risk for their very freedom. But limited perspective can also hurt oneself. On the witness stand, Brady refuses to give consideration to any of Drummond's questions about the inconsistencies in the Bible, finally saying "I do not think about things...that I do not think about." Brady's inability to consider different perspectives, to simply accept Christianity as it has been presented to him, makes him look ridiculous and results in his humiliation in the trial. It takes outsiders, like Drummond and Hornbeck, who hold different perspectives, to bring to light some of the unconsidered assumptions of the townspeople. The people of Hillsboro, with their limited perspective, are trapped in a world in which others' opinions are paramount. This is why Rachel urges Bert to confess, because the other townspeople all believe him to be wrong. Only when she searches outside of herself, looking for a perspective different from her previous assumptions, does she gain self-confidence and freedom.

The clash between North and South, between urban and rural

Though the script of the play describes Hillsboro only as "a small town," it is without question a small Southern town. The original Scopes trial took place in Tennessee, and the dialects of the characters in the play support a reading of the town as Southern. In this Southern farming town, Drummond from Chicago and Hornbeck from Baltimore are very much outsiders, both as Northerners and city people. Hornbeck's desire to return to the city and Davenport's references to Drummond as "the gentleman from Chicago" indicate the great divide which exists between ways of life in the North and the South, between city and country. Brady, on the other hand, is originally from Nebraska and has preserved his small town roots, despite his government roles. The clash of the big-city Northerners intruding upon the small town and the Southerners desirous to solve their own problems without outsiders is symptomatic of the changing relationship between the country's regions in the twentieth-century. From Esterbrook's radio and the reporters, it is clear that new media will do much to erase the dividing lines between places and prevent the provincialist justice the Hillsboro court seeks.

Intellectualism vs. fundamentalism

Brady and the people of Hillsboro are fundamentalists in the religious sense ­ they take the Bible literally, or as Brady says, "everything in the Bible should be accepted, exactly as it's given there." For Brady, then, fundamentalism means not only literal interpretation but also complete acceptance. Questioning the Bible or seeking new interpretations of it, for him, is unthinkable. In that sense, then, fundamentalism is at odds with intellectualism. Brady's fundamentalism means shutting down his mind, forcing himself not to undergo the natural human process of wondering at that which does not make sense. In choosing to interpret ­ or accept ­ the Bible as he does, he chooses not to think. Drummond, on the other hand, promotes intellectualism, finding the human mind sacred and arguing as the freedom of thought as a basic right. His intellectualism does not eschew spirituality ­ by saying Brady looks for God too far away, he admits there may be a God somewhere else, closer by ­ but rather eschews a religious tradition that does not celebrate thinking and questioning. Whereas a fundamentalist system condemns Cates' questions about God as blasphemous, Drummond's intellectual system sees his questioning as part of an ongoing process. This intellectualism, unlike Hornbeck's harsh cynicism, celebrates though for the possibilities it creates for understanding and for life in the world, even at the cost of the safety one feels with an unquestioned faith. It does not condemn religious per se but only the fundamentalist system of thought which does not admit to any perspectives beyond itself.

What is holy?

For Brady and for the residents of Hillsboro, including Rev. Brown, the answer is simple and orthodox. That which the Bible says is holy is holy ­ the prophets, the recounted miracles, the book itself. Brady's recitation of the books of the Old Testament at the conclusion of his testimony is an obstinate example of this dogmatic approach to religion. To him, what is holy is a finite body of words and stories. For Drummond, however, the capacity for human thought is holy, more holy than any cathedral or shouted Hosannah's. He sees miracles in the progress of human knowledge, while Brady looks for them too far away and long ago. Drummond's conception of holiness is more of a spirituality than a religion, a belief in the sanctity of human thought rather than canonic writings assembled long ago. When Brady asks Drummond if anything is holy to him, his conception of "holy" means "off-limits," "beyond reproach," "unquestionable." For Drummond, holiness, however, is magnificence. That which is holy should be continually examined rather than locked away from human eyes.

The importance of free thought

According to Drummond, what is on trial in Hillsboro is a man's right to think. In their law against the teaching of evolution, the people of Hillsboro have not only dismissed a scientific theory but have in effect stated that they don't want to even consider and dismiss it for themselves. The judge's refusal to allow any expert testimony about evolution from the defense makes this clear; the people of Hillsboro do not want to even think about evolution. They are afraid of thinking about it, afraid of thinking. Rachel is a prime example of this fear of thought. At the beginning of the play, she does not want to worry about whether Bert's actions were right or wrong; she simply wants him to do what the rest of the town thinks is right. Only by the end, when she reads Darwin and makes the decision on her own to leave her father's house, does she realize the power of thinking. Neither she nor Howard is sure they accept Darwin ­ they need to think more about it ­ thus disproving the town's fear of hearing the unfamiliar and thus being forced to think about it. Only by thinking for herself can Rachel escape the control of her father and create a life for herself. From her, it is clear that free thought is not only important from an intellectual standpoint or because of the First Amendment but because it is necessary and valuable in human life. Without it, as Drummond says, no progress would ever be made ­ not only in technology but emotionally as well.

The inevitability of and need for progress

When Brady asks his former friend Drummond how he has moved so far away from him, so that they stand apart on an issue of great importance, Drummond replies, "Perhaps it is you who have moved ­ by standing still." Certainly, Brady with his enormous voice and great oratory is suited to an era past, speaking in town squares rather than on the new technology of the radio. Brady's inability to adapt to the radio in the courtroom ­ so much that Esterbrook has to push him bodily in the right direction ­ metaphorically reveals him to be ill-equipped for life in this new era. Drummond, in contrast, recognizes the benefits the increased audience of radio will bring to those like Cates who are ideological "outsiders" in small homogenous towns. But progress here also means progress of thought. Whereas Brady has learned the Bible and accepted it, for Cates thought and understanding of the complex world around is an ongoing process. Drummond makes clear the value of minds like Cates', without which all manner of progress, form the telephone to women's suffrage, has been accomplished. To hold to one position without ever reconsidering or moving forward, as Brady does, is defeatist.

The relationship between self-conception and self-worth

In many ways, and certainly in the way it was publicized, Inherit the Wind is a clash of personalities, of individuals with strong conceptions of themselves and how they are perceived by others. Brady, for example, depends on his role as a "great man" and famous American, organizing photo ops with the mayor and minister as soon as he gets off the train and with a speech prepared for every occasion. Hornbeck, however, relishes his role as a cynic, even when his sympathetic writing about Cates reveals to Rachel that his cynicism is very much an assumed role. Drummond, too, relishes his role as defender of right, taking a case not for the money but for the issues and ideals at stake. In contrast to them is someone like Rachel, who has little conception of her self beyond what others, like her father, tell her, and even Cates, who needs to be reassured that he is doing something good by standing up for what he has taught. Only when she begins to think on her own, arriving at an understanding of herself, can Rachel gain enough self-worth to act autonomously. When the need to accord self-conception with self-worth is unsuccessful, however, the results can be bad. Brady's half-conscious recitation of his never-used Inaugural Address reveals the effect being an also-ran, in effect a perpetual electoral loser, has had on his self-worth. When his conception of himself as the most powerful man in the room begins to crumble ­ when the crowd talks and radio man leaves during his speech ­ Brady's fears about his self-worth are revealed.

The value of multiple perspectives

At the end of the play, Hornbeck condemns the now-dead Brady for his bigotry and closed-mindedness. Drummond, however, is less quick to dismiss Brady's values and opinions. He alone realizes that the ideal for which he has been fighting ­ free speech and thought ­ requires that all be allowed to express their opinions, however much one might disagree with them. Hornbeck's liberal certainty is in effect as bigoted as Brady's fundamentalist railings. Any person or community that entertains only a single possibility risks discriminating against anyone who disagrees with them. Certainly, the people of Hillsboro's refusal to hear any perspectives on evolution beyond their own is destructive to Cates. But, in a larger sense, Drummond makes clear that all innovation and realization ­ from Copernicus to the telephone ­ comes from someone who has considered different perspectives.

Extra Credit for Inherit the Wind

More McCarthy. Inherit the Wind was also intended, in part, and like The Crucible , as a commentary on the McCarthy hearings in Congress—which sought, in the 1950s, to “root out” suspected Communists in American political, social, and cultural institutions. The idea of mass hysteria, suspicion, and a “witch hunt” for agnostics, Communists, or other “subversives” was a common theme in 1950s literature.

Famous names. The 1960 film version of the play, also called Inherit the Wind , starred Spencer Tracy (as Henry Drummond) and Gene Kelley (as Hornbeck). Kevin Spacey, George C. Scott, Jack Lemmon, and other famous actors also have participated in performances of the play, or its screen adaptations, over the past 60 years.

Analysis of Inherit the Wind Film Essay (Movie Review)

Introduction, a synopsis of the film, critical review of the film.

Bibliography

Inherit the wind is a Hollywood film produced in 1960 following inherit the wind play. The movie is an allegory that fictionalizes the 1925 Scopes Money Trial. This is aimed at criticizing McCarthyism. The movie reacted to the chilling outcome of the McCarthy period, which entailed an examination of the academic discourse.

The movie plays a critical role as far as the understanding of creation is concerned. In 1925, Scopes was charged in the court of law for teaching the Darwinian theory of creation. It was perceived that teaching high school students the theory was affect their faith and interfere with their belief.

The Tennessee state law stated that children at the high school were not to be introduced to theories that would infiltrate knowledge as far as the understanding of creation is concerned. In the movie, Matthew Harrison, Henry Drummond, and Bertram Cates are some of the characters that represent scholars at the time such as William Bryan, Darrow, and Scopes.

Even through the producers of the movie state in the beginning that the movie does not represent the chronology of events, it is shown clearly that the movie portrays a historical account. This article conducts a critical review of the film by showing how it portrays the period and events. The article also looks at the accuracy of the film 1 .

The movie shows a teacher in the Southern town who was charged for introducing students to one of the controversial theories of creation. The teacher introduced students to the Darwinian Theory, which was contrary to the laws of the state. The teacher informed students that man is a descendant of the apes, something that the society was reluctant to accept.

The teacher encountered criticisms from various sections, especially the church since the reverend was the first to deny the allegations. The teacher was arrested for giving students information that was perceived to be controversial since not all scientists agreed that Darwin’s theory was accurate.

The case was exciting was it was to be attended by famous individuals, including Matthew Brady, who had previously vied for the presidential seat. Brady was always against the theory by Charles Darwin since he was a scholar of religion. His area of interest academically was the study of the Bible. The three times presidential candidate would act as a prosecutor alongside other prosecutors including the town’s attorney.

Brady observed that it was his responsibility to teach the naïve teacher the true story of creation 2 . However, the three times presidential candidate was in for a rude shock because one of the best American legal experts represented the teacher, even though he was considered so controversial.

Apart from being a legal expert, Drummond was an enemy of the three times presidential candidate. The case attracted attention from various quarters, including the media since various media personalities would attend the court session.

The reverend was so annoyed to an extent of inciting people against the ungodly teacher and his legal representative. However, the reverend’s daughter complicated the case because she was in love with the controversial teacher. In the court, a controversy ensued because the judge seemed to be against Drummond by referring Brady to as colonel.

Drummond was upset since the judge did not demonstrate impartiality in a sensitive case. Drummond tried severally to persuade the court to allow the scientist to explain the provisions of the Darwin theory, but the judge could not allow. The view of the judge was that the provisions of the theory were misplaced meaning that they could not be explained in public.

At this point, the movie portrays the period that was so unfavorable to scientists. The works of various scientists in society were not allowed because they went against the teachings of God in several ways. Many people believed that God created human beings.

Therefore, there was no reason to believe that man could have actually evolved from apes. The movie confirms some of the experiences that scientists went through in the traditional society. In fact, the experiences that the teacher goes through in the movie compares closely with the experiences that other scholars went through in early 1900. Internet sources and various books confirm this.

After a heated argument, Drummond while representing the estranged teacher, requested Brady, the theologian and three times presidential candidate, to explain the why the findings of Darwin were inaccurate. Brady was well versed on matters related to the Bible.

For him, explaining the teachings of the Bile was not an issue. Drummond was the best lawyer since he cross-examined the theology scholar until a common ground was reached. Brady was unable to explain clearly some of the controversial issues.

Drummond concluded that the knowledge on creation was still developing since no individual could defend his or her position clearly. In this regard, he suggested that each person, including the teacher, had a right of formulating a viewpoint as regards to creation.

The judge was reluctant to rule in favor of the teacher since the society was unwilling to accept the fact that various theories explaining creation exist 3 . At last, the teacher was convicted since he had been found guilty of giving controversial information to his students.

Brady was not satisfied with the ruling since he convinced the judge to charge Drummond and his client for wasting the time of the court. However, his attempts are unsuccessful because the judge did not give in to his views. Noticing that no one was listening to him, Brady fell and died instantly. It was later identified that ruptured stomach was the cause of his death.

As earlier noted, the film shows how science and scientific knowledge have gone through a long process to be what it is now. Scientists have gone through various problems because the society has always been reluctant to accept the new knowledge. The teacher could not survive in a society that believed God created everything.

Charles Darwin theory could not be spared in a society that religious leaders and scholars were extremely powerful. The judge lacked impartiality because every member of society respected religion. Nothing could convince the judge that the theory could be having some truths in it.

Religious leaders and scholars controlled all forms of inventions implying that they had the right to determine what was to be taught in schools. This could also mean that the church and religious scholars were relied heavily as far as formulation of laws was concerned.

The laws of the state were designed in line with the teachings of the church. Brady and other religious leaders could express their opinions in the song ‘inherit the wind’ meaning that those opposed to the teachings of the bible had no otherwise, but to comply with the mainstream belief.

Revered Brown is shown quoting a verse that Brady had earlier quoted in the court. This shows that the church controlled all major events, opinions, views, and beliefs in society.

Through analysis, it can be concluded that the movie criticizes the past by observing that the society was unsympathetic to change. These determined to bring change were frequently humiliated through the courts and other organs of the law. The Tennessee administration feared the future, which forced it to come up with laws that discouraged scientific discoveries.

In the US, scientists have fought for their rights continuously just like other minorities such as women and people of the color. Through the movie, it is noted that they have never enjoyed their rights and freedoms in history. The church controlled science implying that it could determine what to invent and what to discard.

The film brings out the theme of power clearly since the church and the intelligentsia is seen to compote for recognition 4 . The church uses the state as a coercive tool to intimidate those who do not subscribe to its rules.

The views presented in the movie are accurate because the church has always influenced the public opinion, even though it was separated from the state in 1648 through the treaty of Westphalia. In the movie, the state organs do not use facts to make a ruling since the judge favored the church without even giving a legal reason.
