The fact that it was written in 1949 and portrayed 1984 as a technologically advanced society was very interesting to me because it showed how close Orwell believed the threat of totalitarianism was and it also showed technology as being a bad thing because the telescreens were used to constantly stream propaganda as well as watch what everyone was doing. I also thought that he used the war that Oceania was fighting to show how no one really

George Orwell predicted. Orwell predicted this event‚ by writing a book‚ called 1984‚ it’s about a future that is controlled by the government‚ and the people are brainwashed to follow the government’s rules. The whole idea of my essay is that the American citizens’ privacy are being violated‚ and to see if the people are willing to give up their personal privacy to have a greater good for the society.

When you think about the United States‚ freedom is often what you think of. It’s an important value that we have as Americans. But when it comes to sexual freedom we aren’t really free.

The Daunting Effects of Totalitarianism In the novel 1984‚ George Orwell utilizes diction and figurative language to portray how a totalitarian government dehumanizes the lives of its people and obliterate their thought.

In “1984‚” George Orwell preaches the dangers of totalitarianism and the deprecation of individual freedoms in the face of unbridled power. Likewise‚ Mary Shelley’s haunting reminder in “1984” dissects the consequences that arise from the pursuit of knowledge without ethical
