in the first act of importance of being earnest algernon is sitting down and having an interrogating conversation in which jack is the centre.He probes jack to tell about his cigarette case.On one particular quote ,algernon conforms the identity earnest and compares it with his own. 'you have  invented a very useful younger brother called earnest ,in order that you may be able to come up to town as often as you like .i have invented an invaluable permanent invalid called Bunbury ,in order that i may be able to go down into the country whenever i choose .Bunbury ,in order that i may be able to go down into the country whenever i choose .Bunbury to go down into the country whenever i choose .


This tells us that algernon is attempting to make a comparison between the two of them to make it sound more expectable to have two identities . also there was another quote about educated people and non educated ,when jack said 'i am sick to death of cleverness .everybody is clever nowadays .I wish to goodness we had a few fools left '.This shows us that Oscar Wilde uses the language to be viewed as very 'harshly honest' ,when really jack is clever himself ,and so it also connects to the fact that he is fed up of the  typical sensibility of Victorian society and how educated people have become a 'public nonsense .oscar develops this to say that 'fools' are more interesting ,maybe due to the fact that they don't aren't really educated and don't
 talk about the bore of materialistic items .The repetition of the word clever insights us how he feels about  intelligent people . Humor is created by the reversed way in which jack feels clever people aren't of his liking ,this makes the audience because the language in that quotation was serious but had some humor in it .




This ideology links to the memorable quote in the novel  were lady brackenell had her conversation with Gwendolyn and said that 'education produces no effect whatsoever '.I feel that notion of the novel is that educated people aren't really liked .The irony of this is that if oscar Wilde suggest that Mrs prism isn't very important either however she is .This connects with the other quote because its shows us although they are living in the Victorian era , Oscar wilde shows the opposite from what the audience might think 'education' may be viewed by people .


Tthroughout act 2 scene 1 You seem to be displaying signs of triviality. 'on the contrary ,aunt Augusta. I've now realized for the first time in my life the vital importance of being Ernest .in this quote the form of lexis is very serious but pun intended ,because jack exposes himself in way only he could see . Oscar made jack perceptive in the in which he finds a great deal of his secret identity  .
