    • 2 Pages

    As long as I live‚ I will never tolerate the concept of betrayal.

However‚ due to the holes in the structure of his created society in 1984‚ George Orwell fails to represent a perfect state of panopticism. Designed by Jeremy Bentham‚ panopticism lays a heavy emphasis on the importance of effectively educating the youth. Education in a panoptic society

    Symbolism in 1984

    • 855 Words
    • 4 Pages

    George Orwell‚ in his dystopian novel 1984‚ includes many symbolic objects‚ themes‚ and characters. These symbols are important to a deeper understanding of the book and its purpose. The language in 1984 is symbolic of the Party ’s manipulation of its members. The development of Newspeak‚ although seeming to improve the civilization‚ depletes thought‚ creativity‚ and individualism in its speakers. This represents the Party ’s main goal of brainwashing and taking complete control. The terms

    • 891 Words
    • 4 Pages

    I just want to say that I felt that giving a speech would be better than making a video because there’s really no way that I can make 1984 funny. I would honestly classify George Orwell’s work as a horror novel. It doesn’t have the traditional horror elements like zombies or a haunted house. That kind of horror is child’s play. The horror in 1984 is the scariest kind because it almost seems plausible. The story revolves around a totalitarian society where the government is trying and succeeding to
