people who refuse to open their minds and eyes to what’s actually happening in the world. It’s literally right in front of us not to the same extent‚ but its close. For this essay I chose the topic of how close we are to the Brave New World by Aldous Huxley in terms of personal relationships and society. My first topic would be how open we’ve become with each other in a more negative perspective. It used to be a much bigger deal to sleep with each other or fool around‚ but now it seems like the norm

I agree that “everywhere [man] is in chains‚” but on the contrary‚ I believe man is already chained from the start—that man is never free. In the novel‚ Brave New World‚ by Aldous Huxley‚ babies are “decanted” and conditioned to play out their predestined roles in the World State. As early as the embryonic stage‚ babies-to-be already have their fates determined for them. In addition to conditioning‚ a drug called soma that induces

Happiness is tempting‚ but it’s not always pure. In A Brave New World‚ a futuristic- historical blended novel by Aldous Huxley‚ happiness is a facade‚ and a trick‚ like a piece of candy‚ used by the government. The novel reflects history‚ but in correspondence‚ predicts the future. When new faces were brought into the world‚ the indigenous people were disgusted by their qualities of real human beings. The “civilized” ones were nauseated by old age‚ solitude‚ and thoughts of God and science. These

Aldous Huxley wrote Brave New World in the 1930s. He made many future predictions and many or most of them have already come true but not to the extent that he writes about. The society in Brave New World is significannot ly different to the present one‚ and to the society in Huxley’s time. Aldous Huxley wrote Brave New World not as a warning‚ but as something to look forward to. The people in Brave New World are everything we‚ as a society‚ want to be.

“They’ll grow up with what the psychologists used to call an “instinctive” hatred of books and flowers. Reflexes unalterably conditioned.”(Huxley 22)‚ the previous line explains the theory of why the director has the children undergo this process‚ and with the lower classes going through this electroshock treatment it insures that none surpass them. This process facilitates their status as

Huxley’s warning in ‘BNW’ that the future representation of society is these people & so we should be careful of who has power and control. Now let’s look at the novel closely‚ in particular chapters 3‚ 7 and 18 as they are great examples of what Huxley is trying to warn us all about. Now I say Chapter 3 is a great interpretation of the people and politics‚ as it is continuously shifting different viewpoints on this so called ‘Brave New World’.

Comparison of The Red Hat with works of others I would like to compare The Red Hat with two famous soft sci-fi books that were published in last century‚ Brave New World of Aldous Huxley and 1984 of George Orwell . A very basic common place of these three books in the comparison‚ Brave New World‚ 1984‚ and The Red Hat‚ is that they are all devoted to defend humanity against potential threats from either evil ambitions of some individuals and social practices based on erroneous ideological theories

New World ridicules the pretensions of science; A Modest Proposal dramatizes starvation by advocating cannibalism. None of these ideas is original. Chivalry was suspect before Cervantes‚ humanists objected to the claims of pure science before Aldous Huxley‚ and people were aware of famine before Swift. It was not the originality of the idea that made these satires popular. It was the manner of expression‚ the satiric method‚ that made them interesting and entertaining. Satires are read because they
