The ending of 1984
Winston and Julia were on their way out of town for another night where they get lost in their love with each other. All they wanted to do was get away and be together without being watched or having the chance of getting caught. They have been getting away more and more often lately. Every day they become more and more in love with each other. They were finding new and exciting places to go away to and different things to do with each other. Making love was now a regular thing for the two of them, they were consumed with each other. Whenever they were apart they were anticipating the next time they would be together and when they were together they were savoring every second of holding each other close. As they grew closer Big Brother seemed to be getting more and more powerful with his actions of keeping an eye on everyone and everything and making sure nothing is hidden from the party. Winston and Julia both knew things were going to start getting even harder for them to be together. Julia, who always was against what the party was doing, wanted to do something about the way the party controlled everything. She wanted to somehow destroy the party in all of its forms so that she could be with Winston. Winston agreed that something needed to be changed. Winston and Julia began thinking of ways that they could somehow destroy the party. They both knew that it would be hard mission to accomplish and that they would need more than just the two of them. Winston decided to tell O’ Brien of his and Julia’s plan and what he thought of it. When Winston approached O’ Brien he seemed shocked and interested in what he was telling him. “Me and Julia need your help. I know I can trust you, and I know that you agree with us on our views of The Party. We are trying to come up with a plan to overthrow them. What do you think?” Winston said.
“Are you sure this is what you want to do?”
“Yes, we need to do this.”
“I’m in, but we need to have a flawless plan so it doesn’t blow up in our faces. I don’t want to be caught and be vaporized.
“This plan is going to takes months to figure up and we are going to make sure nothing happens to any of us.”
“This is going to be difficult, but we have managed to get this far with even talking about it and were still fine.”
“I agree, when should we start?”
“Now,” said O’Brien.
They had found an abandoned building out in the middle of no where and they thinking up some kind of plan to overthrow the Party. The plan that they had come up with consisted of one simple thing. Nuclear power is how they planned on getting rid of the Party. Winston, Julia and O’ Brien worked furiously at this huge plan they had for months upon months. They needed to make it perfect and they knew even the slightest mistake could expose their whole plan to Big Brother. They had just enough power to destroy the buildings with the most powerful people controlling everyone. The bombs were safely put down under the abandoned building. They dug a huge hole in the floor of the building and made sure the bombs wouldn’t accidently be detected where they would for sure be found out.

    I think Alameda Point should be modified because there are many abandoned buildings, and there should be extra room for schools, hospitals, stores, and additional residency. There are about one hundred abandoned buildings on Alameda Pointbecause nobody uses the buildings so they end up collecting rodents and insects, especially termites. Alameda is crowded the way it is and we need the additional space for more guises news buildings, stores, hospitals, and residency. More schools are needed in Alameda because the public schools are overflowing with students,and if there are more schools with less students there will be more one on one help, and the teachers can be more aware of the students social situations. Additional stores are necessary…

    Chapter six starts off with Winston writing in his diary about an encounter with a old and ugly prole prostitute three years ago and how he used to be married to a women named Katherine. They separated when they both had differences in ideology, which included her not enjoying sexual intercourse and only performed it to make a child for the Party. In this chapter, Winston also discusses how the Party did not want mean and women to form loyalties because they could not control them. In addition, the Party really wanted to remove all pleasure from the sexual act and the main goal of sexual intercourse is to supply the Party with new party members. However, artificial insemination (artsem in Newspeak) was slowly beginning to become the better way of having children.…

    At this point, they were truly mistaken. Winston and Julia were taken away because O’Brien and Mr. Charrington were secretly working for the Thought Police and turned them in. With this turn of events Winston and Julia were to be cleansed and tortured to conform to “The Party”. Here Winston was faced with his ultimate fear, and could not take the thought of rats on him. He broke down and was willing to sacrifice Julia because of his fear. This was a low point for Winston because he truly thought “The Party” would not get to him, and as for the protagonist of the story the audience would imagine he would overcome “The Party”.…

    Julia offers Winston something outside of this. She gives him physical and emotional comfort, contrasting what the Party offers. However, their beliefs in the opposition to the Party differ greatly, Winston rebels in hope that future generations will be free of the Party. Julia, being younger has no memories of a time before the Party and therefore can't imagine a time without them in control, she rebels more for simply the sake of doing so. Julia believes that the only way of opposing the party is with secret acts of disobedience or at the most isolated acts of violence because she doesn't believe that anyone or anything can defeat…

    They both know very well that, in this case, their rebellion could lead both of their lives to death if they were discovered. Julia whispers to Winston, “‘And now listen, dear, we’ve got to fix up about the next time we meet. We may as well go back to the place in the wood; we’ve given it a good long rest. But you must get there by a different way. I’ve got it all planned out’” (149). While Winston and Julia actually try to keep their rebellion a secret, many teens rebel against authority for the satisfaction of being caught and being able to reflect upon the moment they were discovered. For instance, when the Columbine shooting took place, it did not occur out of the blue, nor did the two offenders attempt to not be caught. In fact, the two boys told various people about their plan, not worrying about being disciplined before the offence. While the reader has seen proof of Winston’s lack of interest in the person who Julia is, it is time to see Julia’s side. Had she truly cared about Winston, she could have continued to strive for the overcoming of Big Brother to end up together with Winston. However, she does not feel this way and it can be seen by viewing her comment:…

    Nothing is what it seems in the cryptic worlds of Winston Smith and Thomas Anderson (alias Neo), the main protagonists of 1984 and The Matrix respectively. 1984 takes place in a dystopian society that is created by a group of individuals collectively referred to as the Party. Smith is himself a member of the Party; however, he has the capacity to look beyond his social status and see the injustice and horrors that permeate the lives of all people. Winston’s subsequent treachery of the Party is obscured to the best of his ability, but all of his efforts to oppose the Party—with his unexpected lover, Julia—prove to be of no avail when he finally gets caught by the Thought Police, an undercover organization that monitors the lives of all people…

    1984 Dystopia Analysis

    • 994 Words
    • 4 Pages

    Dystopia. The idea is explored in a now, quite saturated, genre of novels, many of which predict propaganda integrated into daily life, “controlling” the minds of the masses. 1984 is no longer the future, and neither is the twenty-first century. Many would believe that we still have yet to live in such conditions, but the truth contrasts this more than they may be aware. Propaganda is more prevalent than ever, with the advent of the internet, a powerful tool that when wielded can instantly connect one to vast amounts of knowledge. The internet, however, has become a powerful medium for propaganda. This isn’t even necessarily limited to blatant spreading of opinions, but also to news articles, and companies that exist today. This is not…

    She stepped slowly from the doorframe, letting the light touch her old and faded face as if it were the sun that was to appreciate her presence. She hardly went on walks when I was around. She’d always just stay in and moan about it being too bright. I definitely remembered this old hag. And if you think 'old hag' was a bit of a harsh term, I am more than willing to argue. Despite her frail appearance and gentle expression, I know what truly lied behind the facet of wrinkles. Stubborn and headstrong like that of a wild boar, with a tongue so sharp, one could nearly be sliced in two if Katherine believed you to be worth her time in the very least, let alone bothered to utter a word to you at all. As a boy, I had the misfortune of continuously…

    It was seven am and I was agonizing over a calculus test. This was not just an ordinary test, this test determined my final grade for the entire class. I texted Winston, my best friend since the 5th grade as usual to come over for breakfast and to study a little more for the test. As we ate breakfast Winston kept glancing at his phone. When I asked him what he was up to , he quickly mumbled to me with a startled tone “Umm… just texting my mom .” At the moment I had no concern to ask Winston why he was acting so strange but I knew in the back of my mind there was something going on with Winston.…
