It was early in the morning, the house was completely silent, and Judson was the only one awake. Judson swept quietly through the house, he peeked through an open door to his parent's room and it was empty. His parents must have went some where without telling him, again. They left Judson home alone often, well, actually he wasnt fully alone... Judson opens a door across the hall and peeks in. There, in a dark room laid a little girl covered up to the chin in blankets. That was Judson's little sister Holly, he smiled slightly at how cute and peaceful she looked asleep, He slowly shut the door behind him, letting her sleep for as long as she wanted. Judson walked quietly into the kitchen, getting ready to make some breakfast…
This saying from someone in Brave New World shows how dependent the caste systems are on the soma. In this chapter we can tell that they are so dependent on having soma by how they react when the black cash box is brought into the room. The Alphas basically lose control of them to try and get a pill and forget all about Savage. They have to be told to wait their turn to get their pill and stand in line. Mr. Savage says “Oh brave new world” and the deltas mimic him. He does not like that did this so he tells them that is they don’t stop mimicking him have good behavior he will not distribute any more pills. Right after he says this their behavior becomes good and the box is reopened. This shows how much they want the some and will do anything for it.…
Certain types of novels, articles, or even images has social intentions. One of them is satire, "It is a style of writing, or art, which ridicules or criticizes its subject often as an attempt to accomplish change." Which is what both the Adbusters image and Aldous Huxley's novel Brave New World bring about. Both these pieces have created a question and fear on what these technological advancements can lead a society into. Both Brave New World and Adbusters share the same satirical message that science and technology is created for an advancement in social and cultural developments, however ironically it resulted in a degradation of social and cultural relationships.…
Life compared to Brave New World and the present world are slightly different, but they both have many similarities. For one thing, life is taken for granted in both societies. Marriage is wasted, in the Savage Reservation the husbands aren't loyal or faithful to their wives, at it happens many times today. The use of drugs became a normal daily routine. Self-indulgences, nothing else matters as long ones self is happy. Weather it is in Brave New World or today's world the arts consist of one thing, sex.…
Robin Hood is facing numerous problems and issues, but I think the most pressing problem is the fact that the band of Merrymen has far outgrown the available resources in Sherwood Forest. Robin Hood’s faith in succeeding by strength in numbers is quickly becoming a contributor to their downfall. Income is low at this point as well, so purchasing supplies, whether near or far, will soon become impossible. If the men aren’t fed, the men can’t function. Not only is the lack of available resources a problem, but the group itself is unorganized and is lacking sufficient leadership. The issue of the group’s decline in vigilance and discipline could lead to dire consequences, especially with the Sheriff actively searching for the band’s weaknesses, and this needs to be resolved immediately.…
Aldous Huxley, author of Brave New World, demonstrates that use of technology that we use today. Comparing the book to society today, in 632 A.F. The government had owned all of the new studies, almost too much of the experiments. It had way too much control over the social lives of the natural citizens. Every new body that is born becomes of the governments liking, which leaves “natural” child birth out of the picture. It is known as the Bokanosky Process, taking the ovaries out of a woman and hypnopaedic conditioning. The mindset the government had was they were constantly making newer and better technology to create “perfect” individuals without error.…
Have you ever wondered that there was a whole other world completely different from the one we live in today? In Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World, there actually is metaphorically. In this world people are controlled by higher power. The way Huxley describe life in (BNW) and life in the U.S are different based on drug use, religion, and consumptions of goods and services.…

One day at recess, I climbed all the way to the top just like I always did, and I looked all around me at the kids playing on the playground. They were all laughing and running around having fun. I wonder when it will be time to go back inside? I thought. Just then a loud noise filled the playground.…
Brave new world is our future and is supposed to be representing our world. At first it was difficult to get the connection but with more understanding I'm beginning to understand what the meanings are being everything. Some of the topics Huxley describes seems very odd because it makes no sense to us, but then there are other examples he uses.…
Fifty years from now the world that we have become so accommodated with will seem odd and unnatural because of our ever-changing society. Even though circumstances between the two communities may seem different, they still revolve around the same basis. In Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World, the society includes many of the same principles that we can see in our everyday life. Even though our world may not seem so closely related to that of Brave New World, many similarities exist. The fact that our worlds share many similarities scares me. Some of the frightening similarities in both civilizations include the rapidly deceasing level of pain tolerance, teaching through technology, and segregation.…
Everyone would agree that today’s youth is a little backwards, but let’s go farther than that. Looking at society as a whole, today's world is much worse than what it should be. There is a huge lack of empathy and too much sensitivity; the amount of close-minded people on this earth is crippling; major masses of judgemental people are dragging everyone down. There are many more issues, but that short list is big enough in it’s own way. Very few things would stay the same in the new world; it needs a lot of remodeling.…
“Robin Hood and Little John running through the forest jumping benches, dodging trees just trying to get away.” (Robin Hood. Disney:1973) This is one of the first lines of my favorite Disney movie. The title of course being “Robin Hood”. The animated version of this classic tale where our main character is a delinquent who robs the wealthy to help feed the poor. Him and his comrade, Little John find every opportunity to rob from the greedy, and ruthless Prince John. All the goods they steal they pass out and distribute to those who suffer poverty due to Prince Johns absurdly high taxes.…
