Findings

Qualitative research is a type of scientific research, according to A Data Collector's

Field Guide. Scientific research, in general, is an investigation that: • seeks answers

to a question • uses a systematic set of procedures to answer the question • collects

evidence • produces findings that were not predetermined • produces findings that

are applicable beyond the study's immediate boundaries

Closed-reading the drama Pygmalion is used to collect data. This study employs

literary research to examine the subject materials. Furthermore, the data collection

procedure can be summarised as follows: a. Locating a data source Pygmalion is

the primary data source for this study. b. Reading the entire drama script in order

to gain a complete understanding. After deciding on a data source, the writer reads

the entire drama script in search of a link between the storey and the social class

issue.
5.3. Recommendations

- Professor Henry Higgins, author of Higgins' Universal Alphabet, believes in

concepts such as visible speech and uses a variety of recording and

photographic materials to document his phonetic subjects, reducing people

and dialects to what he sees as easily understandable units. In most matters,

he is an unconventional man who goes in the opposite direction as the rest

of Society.

- He is, however, a good and harmless man at heart. His most serious flaw is

that he is a bully. "She is not at all a romantic figure," says Eliza Doolittle. In

Act I, she is also introduced. Everything about Eliza Doolittle appears to defy

our preconceived notions of the romantic heroine. It has less to do with her

innate qualities as a heroine than with the character of Eliza Doolittle, who

comes across as much more instrumental than Fundamental, when she is

transformed from a sassy, smart-mouthed Krebs one Flower girl with

deplorable English to a Regal figure fit to consort with nobility. Eliza Doolittle's

true (re-)making occurs after the ambassador's party, when she Decides to

make a statement for her own dignity Against Higgins' insensitive treatment.
- This is when she transforms from a duchess to an independent woman,

which explains why Higgins begins to regard Eliza as a creature worthy of

His admiration rather than a mill around his neck. Colonel Pickering - Colonel

Pickering, author of Spoken Sanskrit, shares Higgins' passion for phonetics

(though he is a little less obsessive). Pickering, on the other hand, is always

considerate and a genuine gentleman, whereas Higgins is an obnoxious,

careless bully. In the play, he says very little and appears to be mostly a

civilised foil to Higgins' barefoot, absentminded crazy professor. He

contributes to the Eliza Doolittle experiment by wagering that he will cover

the costs of the experiment.

- He contributes to the Eliza Doolittle experiment by wagering that if Higgins

does indeed make a convincing duchess of her, he will cover the costs of

the experiment. While Higgins is only able to teach Eliza how to pronounce

words, Pickering's thoughtful treatment of her teaches her to respect herself.

Alfred Doolittle - Eliza's father, Alfred Doolittle, is an elderly but energetic

dustman who has had at least six wives and "seems equally free from fear

and conscience." When he discovers that his daughter has entered Henry
Higgins' home, he sets out to see if he can extract some money from the

Circumstance.

- Higgins finds his unique brand of rhetoric amusing, an unembarrassed,

hypocritical avocation of drink and pleasure (at the expense of others).

Doolittle is transformed from a lowly dustman to a picture-perfect lecturer

thanks to Higgins' joking recommendation to a moral Reform society. of

middle class morality--he becomes Miserable. Throughout,

- Alfred is a scoundrel willing to sell his daughter for a few pounds, but he is

one of the few characters in the play who is unaffected by his appearance

or language. His speeches are honest, even if they are scandalous. It even

appears that he could be Shaw's voice of social criticism at times (Alfred's

proletariat status, given Shaw's Socialist leanings, makes the possibility all

the more likely). Mrs. Higgins - Professor Higgins' mother, Mrs. Higgins is a

stately lady in her sixties who thinks the Eliza Doolittle experiment is a

blunder and Higgins and Pickering are idiots. She is the first and only

character in the storey who has any reservations about the affair. When her

fears are confirmed, Because no woman can compare to his mother, Eliza is
depicted as a completely transformed person in both Acts IV and V. She is

poised, dignified, and in control of her once raging temper, and she has

shunned all of her Past life's common vulgarity. She no longer wants to be

Higgins' Creation; she wants to be her own person. Finally, the researcher

suggests that students read Pygmalion to learn about the importance of

phonetics in language and that all educated people read it for enjoyment.

5.4. Recommendations for further study

Some previous learners and studies focused on the play's ending, expecting

professor Higgins and Eliza to marry and live happily ever after. However, the study

suggests that there are many deeper and unexplored aspects in this play. As a

result, more research may uncover new ideas from those interested in high-class

literature.
5.5. Summary

- This research has two goals: demonstrating how the upper and middle

classes interact Reveal Eliza's plan to change the lives of lower-class

people. her socioeconomic status The qualitative method is used by the

researcher because it is a type of scientific research that seeks a systematic

answer to a question and collects evidence using a predefined set of

procedures. It entails describing situations, viewpoints, and motives. The

research has yielded some results. Eliza was able to change her appearance

and speech as a result of her good training, and she was able to reform her

morals. She becomes self-sufficient and emancipated, and she believes she

is on par with Prof Higgins.

- The study made the following recommendations: In teaching literature, the

focus should be on the most important of which is that any educated person,

particularly students and teachers, should learn phonetics and all other

aspects of language. The upper class must assist the lower class in obtaining

a good education and a good job.
