| Abstract: | ‘Dead Poet’s Society’ (1989)film by Peter Weir was written by Tom Schulman and the central character is played by Robin Williams. The backdrop is 1959, and the drama takes place in an elite conservative boarding school called Welton Academy. The drama is centered around John Keating, a progressive English teacher who teaches poetry. Unlike most teachers who provide critique and instruction on poetry to students, Keating asks his students to read poetry and try to understand it using their own experience rather than someone else telling them how to think and feel about poetry. Keating’s unusual teaching methods draw some attention from his colleagues, but through his personality, he is able to keep an amicable relationship with the headmaster of the school. The concluding part of the movie is a bit disappointing. Keating, throughout the term, inspires the students in many ways and eventually the students gather and rebel against their parents and their teachers. The students are finally summoned into the headmaster’s office and are forced to sign a document which stated that the students agreed that Keating corrupted them with his lessons of free thought and such lessons were the reason behind Perry committing suicide. Keating is eventually fired from Welton and also barred from teaching for life |
