Cyril Avery Cyril is the adopted son of Charles and Maude Avery and the biological son of Catherine Goggin. Cyril's adoption, of which all of the characters are aware, and his closeted homosexuality inspire two of the major themes of the novel. His adoption is central to the theme that experience is as important as biology in determining what constitutes a familial bond. His homosexuality, which is illegal in his home country of Ireland for most of his life, is central to the theme that a person is shaped by both his personal experiences and the sociocultural and sociopolitical norms of the time and place in which he lives. His ties to Ireland strengthen as he matures, partially because he increasingly accepts his own sexuality and partially because the country becomes more socially progressive. He does not live in Ireland all of his life, but his changing relationship with... This section contains 1,747 words (approx. 5 pages at 400 words per page)

Living… in a boring and well-kept apartment in an unnamed American city. Cyril lives alone, and doesn’t have any significant positive relationships in his life. Profession… comptroller for ISIS (International Secret Intelligence Service). Cyril, in his own words, is a “kick-ass accountant!” His favorite day is September 30 th because it is the end of the fiscal year. He was once a lawyer, and also provides legal consultation when asked – although his advice has never actually stopped ISIS from doing anything illegal. Interests… Warhammer, math, and sex. While Cyril is quiet, mild-mannered, and nerdy, he is also incredibly well-endowed and suffers from a debilitating sex addiction. He becomes particularly lecherous when he’s drunk, and will sleep with anything if he has a little alcohol in his system. Relationship Status… dating the incredibly sexy ISIS agent, Lana Kane. Their relationship is less than healthy, with Lana injecting a tracking device into his body so she can track his movements, and Cyril frequently indulging his sex addiction by cheating on her. Lana is primarily interested in Cyril because he is everything that her ex-boyfriend Sterling Archer is not. Challenge… dealing with Sterling Archer. The sarcastic superspy is endlessly cruel to Cyril, mocking him openly and in private. The two characters are opposites in many ways, and Cyril resents Archer’s secret agent lifestyle and bravado. Cyril’s computer passwords are all phrases describing how he would like A...

Cyril Fielding, though not Forster himself, is generally assumed to represent Forster’s point of view in the novel A Passage to India. Forty-five years old, he is exactly the age Forster was in 1924 when A Passage to India was first published. An easy-going, kindly man, he has stepped aside from the politics of conquest and rejected the role of ‘sahib’ with all its connotations of superiority. Fielding is the Principal of Government College near Chandrapore. He necessarily mixes with Indians and, like the missionaries, is despised for encouraging them to advance themselves. On his first appearance in the novel, he advises Aziz, and Godbole. Imbued with Forster’s liberal humanism he, like Mrs. Moore, is not concerned with color, race, or creed. When he says to Aziz, ‘Please make yourself at home’ (Chapter 7), it is the kind of remark he would have made to any visitor, Aziz thinks it unconventional, which is an Anglo- Indian context it is, but he is nevertheless delighted. Fielding is more at home with Indians than with Englishmen of the ruling class. He rarely goes to the Club except to play tennis or billiards the Indians, however, he can be himself. The parents of his pupils like him and he finds the company of the educated Indians congenial. His needs are simple; he wants friendship but he has little sexual desire. A quality in Fielding which Aziz sees as both endearing and worrying is his outspokenness; at the Club, he had offended his compatriots by a joke describing t...

Cyril Fielding plays a highly significant role in the novel. He was a modern man, suave, sympathetic and an agnostic, having a clear vision of life. In the beginning, he is shown as a bachelor in the middle forties and working as Principal of the Government College in Chandrapore. Towards the end of the novel, he appears as a man who is still in the educational service but married and having fewer friends. He had traveled widely and had met different kinds of people at different stages of his life. During his journey from Bombay to Chandrapore he met two passengers in the train, one a fresher to the East like himself, the other an old Anglo-Indian of his own age. Both of them were different from him. Fielding is the central figure that sets the whole plot in motion. But for him, the novel would have been a poor attempt at Anglo-Indian fiction. Fielding was an affectionate man. He felt that it was more important to conceive an idea than to produce a child. He was always ready to help people and to seek friendship with others. If others responded to his gestures, he was happy, however, he was not sad if they did not respond to him. He did not marry till he was in the middle forties. Fielding was an educationist and devoted most of his time to this noble profession. He was quite popular with his pupils. He was taken in a procession by his students after Aziz had been acquitted by the magistrate. He gave great importance to the "give and take" in conversation. Like Mrs. Moore,...

Cyril is the masculine counterpart of Doris. He is also 'spoilt' like his sister. He is in the habit of treating his mother very casually. He asks if tea is ready. When Mrs. Pearson says 'no', he angrily answers back: "Why not?" Then he orders: "Did you put my things out?" So he makes his mother run all the time doing one thing or the other. He takes his mother for granted. He considers his work very important and believes that he deserves to enjoy his evenings. He never thinks of the poor mother sitting lonely at home. He expects his mother to be at his beck and call and was rudely shocked to see her new avatar.
