A Conversation Between John The Savage And Mustapha Mond

This quote is said by the blacksmith to his son. He said this after his son hurled himself into the fireplace to save his well-earned rupee from the blazing fire. This quote is significant because it shows development of theme. It portrays success comes from hard work, after the lazybones son finally accomplished his father’s one task by committing to a week worth of work to earn a rupee.

John tries to change the framework of this brave new world based upon his values, but all his attempts opposing stability can’t be accepted and finally lead him to his death. Linda’s death marks a transition point of John’s life. Through this trauma, John experiences these citizens’ indifference. He can’t understand their callousness toward a real human’s death. Linda was his real mother, and he loved her very much. This kind of close relationship did not exist in the brave new world. Therefore, John can’t adopt citizens’ attitudes, and the citizens view him as a person who will destroy the status quo. This event affects John’s feelings and forces him to take a stand against the brave new world. Preventing soma distribution is his chance to confront this “enemy”. He thinks, “Linda had been a slave, Linda had died; others should live in freedom, and the world be made beautiful” (210). This reflection makes him consider a rebellion –

Not looking like the rest of the Indians on the reservation hampered John's ability to fit in with the Savage society. John wanted more than anything to be a part of the Indian culture, to be part of the ritual, to give his life. "Why wouldn't they let me be the sacrifice? I'd have gone round ten times–– twelve, fifteen." John asked why, but he knew the answer. "But they

“Villagers ran blindly into the fire, trying to escape and screaming for mercy, only to be felled by the terrible fire weapons of the strangely pale faced men.”. Amari felt fear, because her villagers were screaming and hurt. This quote is important because it shows the pain and fear Amari has experienced, as setting a conflict that the rest of the story is based

John, also known as John the Savage, is the son of Linda and his father, who are both members of Utopia. He was born and raised on the Savage Reservation. John is an outsider both on the Reservation - where the natives still practise marriage, natural birth, family life and religion - and the apparently civilised Brave New World: a totalitarian welfare-state based on principles of stability and happiness, even if it`s a happiness of a superficial and bland nature.

Mary Wroth alludes to mythology in her sonnet “In This Strange Labyrinth” to describe a woman’s confused struggle with love. The speaker of the poem is a woman stuck in a labyrinth, alluding to the original myth of Theseus and the Minotaur. The suggestion that love is not perfect and in fact painful was a revolutionary thing for a woman to write about in the Renaissance. Wroth uses the poem’s title and its relation to the myth, symbolism and poem structure to communicate her message about the tortures of love.

Living on a remote farm with minimal resources close by, John was obligated to work hard for his living and was content with this lifestyle. Knowing Ann did not take pleasure in the lifestyle they were living, John always tried his best to satisfy her. “He wanted a mortgage-free farm; then a new house and pretty clothes for her.” This proved that John would like to become rich one day and supply Ann with the lifestyle she had always wanted even if it meant that he had to sacrifice the thing he loved most which happened to be the isolation from society. Devoted to the marriage that he had with Ann, even in the worst storms he would return.

“For me, the beautiful, all-encompassing web spun by this creature is at once so polluted, yet so pure that I feel compelled to grab on to it. I am terrified by it but find myself unable to hide from it. At some point I have been caught up in the magical power she has.” (Newlywed, 16)

As the passage continues, the author uses syntax to bring tension to the story. Including diction in it, by saying “the earth heaved and the air darkened… bruised and terrified.” (128) The author uses diction to show all the hard things they have to go through. He uses the word “terrified” to show how scared they were of the power. But, even though they were scared their love made them be together and that no matter what happened they will never betray each other. Tension is being added every time they describe the moment. This can be a representation of the suffering you undergo when you rebel against the party. In this part of the passage you can see how the mood changed, how they change from silently speaking or not speaking at all to a being terrified and the world changing its

John’s actions create many conflicts with the people of this new world. “The noise of the prodigious slap which her departure was accelerated was like a pistol shot,” Huxley, Aldous, 195). In this quote John abused Lenina by hitting her extremely hard and causes her to be afraid of him. Although Lenina was coming on way too fast, he didn’t need to hit her. Another conflict that he creates in the new society is with the other people in this society. John’s actions had gone extremely far when he interrupts the rationing of Soma by yelling, “Don’t take that horrible stuff. It’s poison, it’s poison.” (Huxley, Aldous, 211). During this time he then also “... pushing open a window that looked on to the inner court of the Hospital, he began

What was it that caused the aggression and dominance exhibited by the boys of Lord of the Flies? Was it some metaphysical, spiritual force, or perhaps their genetic makeup? Could it have been the influence of their peers or families, or was it the media that inspired this dangerous pattern? Conceivably, their gender had something to do with this appalling trait. It all begs the question, would the same experiences have occurred had females been stranded on the island instead of males? Had females been in a similar situation as the boys in Lord of the Flies, they would have fared abundantly better. Initially, this paper will address society’s role in encouraging males’ violent behavior, as well as females’ politeness and passivity.

The language in this poem is quite harsh, emphasising the anger ‘Medusa’ feels for this man. There is a lexical field of destruction and disgust ‘shattered’ ‘filthy’ ‘stank’ that connotes the negative feelings of envy and fury that the poet is feeling. The poem as a whole is very figurative, mirroring

According to Capellanus, “Good character alone makes any man worthy of love”. In Lanval, the fairy lover chooses

“The Seafarer” and "The Wanderer” are both poems that describe the hardships of the average Anglo-Saxon warrior. These stories show that life during the times of the Anglo-Saxons is not pleasant. In fact, it appears to be tough, fearful, and depressing. In “The Seafarer”, a man describes his horrid life on the sea, and in "The Wanderer”, a man tells his tale of being put into exile and losing all his fellow warriors and lord. Both men feel physical and emotional pain while going through their adventure. The seafarer claims that the sea itself is torturing him by saying “...the sea took [him], swept [him] back and forth in sorrow and fear and pain.” (2-3) The seafarer also explains that coldness is much more than just a feeling but a

The time periods that each text is set in varies and it is therefore interesting to note that this does not change the fundamentals, we are prepared to make sacrifices for love. All the characters were forced by restrictions of the time to make difficult decisions and in these cases they were willing to give their lives, either physically or emotionally, for their love. It shows the extremity of love, that it is worth more to these literary
