    Language in The Handmaid’s Tale For centuries‚ “the pen is mightier than the sword” has been the adage du jour. Words do more damage than swords‚ spreading ideas instead of killing people. One dangerous little idea‚ passed among individuals‚ does more damage than any blade could ever do; few armies can hold out against strong ideas. In the state of Gilead‚ words mean everything‚ and they have the ultimate power. The women in Margaret Atwoods’ dystopian novel The Handmaid’s Tale have very limited avenues

Certainly‚ the official penalty for rape is terrible: in one scene‚ the Handmaids tear apart with

    Throughout the entire text of The Handmaid’s Tale‚ the ruling totalitarian government does what is in its power to attempt to isolate women from society.

A postmodern novel leaves the reader ambiguous to some of the most obvious forms of literature‚ but this ambiguity serves a purpose to the postmodernism in the metafictional story that includes the theme or the purpose of the novel.

    Quote #1 “The birds did not understand Snowball’s long words‚ but they accepted his explanation‚ and all the humbler animals set to work to learn the new maxim by heart. FOUR LEGS GOOD‚ TWO LEGS BAD‚ was inscribed on the end wall of the barn‚ above the Seven Commandments and in bigger letters (3.10‚ 3.11)” Big words bad‚ small words good: it’s easier to understand rules when they’re simple‚ but simple rules tend to gloss over the complexities of human society.
