One of the literary devices used is personification, “Eternity was in our lips and eyes.”

“If you hide your ignorance, no one will hit you and you'll never learn.” (Bradbury pg.104) In Fahrenheit 451 and The Pedestrian, the main characters witnessed the rarity of social interaction and how inclined people are to their screens. Author Ray Bradbury describes how it has gotten to the point where people are more in touch with technology rather than each other. Through foreshadowing and flashback, Ray Bradbury’s short story, The Pedestrian, and his novel, Fahrenheit 451, explain how society has become more ignorant in a technology-obsessed world.

In Brave New World, the World State exhorts consumerism in order to maintain the society stable. and Island, Huxley draws comparisons between the two Utopian societies, Pala and the World State, and the real world. These comparisons are exhibited through explanations of each society’s characters. All the characters except the protagonist Bernard

advancements and twisted morals to relate back to the political and social environment of 1930s.

Brave New World, acknowledges government control which results in the failure of a society. It is a world created where everything is under control, being observed, and synthetic. The society was manufactured in a test tube therefore, it was factory made. The people were born and developed in the test tubes, so their human nature became adapted so an individual cannot identify or approach it. Every little detail of a person's life is prearranged. These people's lives revolve around their community, their existence, and security; never their individual happiness. They are basically living for their society as a whole. This society was designed to be successful but it failed to give people their individuality. The individuals sacrificed

The title itself means a whole new society,and changes that have yet to happen. My personal guess it takes place after the Great Depression (1932). Based on the cover of the novel I believed it is about society economy rising up drastically where people of have control over themselves. Based on part of the title “Brave” , I would think it would be about a utopian society where the government controls everything. In my opinion it's about going against the society and creating a new world built on the outcome.

Humans have always been invasive, in fact it seems to be a key characteristic of humans. As a species, we only care about our own needs, since we have the basic instinct to survive. In Ray Bradbury’s, “The City,” we had caused the death of a civilization and the “City” wanted revenge for its loss. This short story shows humans’ invasive nature as well as their indifference towards those who are perceived as abnormal, this characteristics can be observed throughout history. Our invasive nature is prevalent through much of American history.

To start off the allusions that Huxley uses throughout his novel, the allusion of literary pieces is one of the most prominent form of allusion. Huxley uses John to show the vast contrast of knowledge that was given to John while on the reservation and taken away from the people that lived within the city. The greatest literary figure that is alluded to within this novel the astounding William Shakespeare who John quotes multiple different pieces of literature throughout the entirety of the novel. John quotes plays such as Othello, Macbeth, Hamlet, Romeo and Juliet, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, and the most impactful play for the entire story was The Tempest which is William Shakespeare’s final piece of literature. The Tempest sets the entirety of this novel as the title is based off one single quote when Miranda exclaims, “O, wonder! How any goodly creatures are there here! How beauteous mankind is! O brave new world, That has such people in’t!” (5.1.187-190). This quote in itself shows the contrast that John has with coming to know of this society and how new this society is to John himself while he tries to figure out all that he needs to in order to understand this estrange world. The multiple allusions to Shakespeare’s also show just how educated John truly is and how his knowledge completely separates and isolates himself from this new society. As John sees this new world for the first time the quote from Miranda really shows just how John anticipates this whole new world and how he believes the world will be, painting John just as naive as Miranda is about how dark the world truly can be.

Brave New World Brave New World by Aldous Huxley takes place in a postmodern society of conformation and mass governmentally subsidized drug dependency. This futuristic world is based on the ideas and works of Henry Ford, focusing primarily his use of mass production. Ford’s concept of bulk manufacturing is utilized by the World State in their artificial creation of people.

Brave New World illustrates a world where everything that is morally right in our society, is wrong. Monogamy is sinful, massive orgies are not. Serious thinking is unnecessary because life has already been planned out. Hardships and stress can be solved with a few tablets of soma. This is the world which John Savage and others in the novel foolishly came to hate. All of the things that John Savage desires are the things that make our society unstable. Huxley uses John Savage to show the reader that this world is distopian, when this society is the closest example to a stable, utopian society.

Brave New World is a novel that starts in the year 632 A.F (After Ford) and, the entire civilization has been destroyed by a world war. After the world war another war followed, the Nine Years War.

Imagine the world in which everyone is happy, there is no pain or suffering, no fear of death, no sadness, everything is good, and the government doles out happy pills, known as Soma, the perfect drug. That society has been created in Aldous Huxley’s novel “Brave New World.” Is everyone truly happy? What do the citizens give up in exchange for living in this utopia and is it worth it? "Brave New World" was published in 1932. Set in a dystopian London six hundred years into the future, the novel follows future citizens through their brave new world. The fact that it was written seventy years ago and so much of it rings true in our world makes it a novel that is captivating. Huxley's story is compelling and terrifying at the same time. It

A dystopia is an imaginary, imperfect place where those who dwell are faced with terrible circumstances. The novel Brave New World by Aldous Huxley illustrates the concept of a dystopia. A utopia is an ideal place where everything is perfect, but in the novel, it becomes apparent that the author is trying to demonstrate the negative effects on a society when it attempts to become an unreachable utopian society. Brave New World is seen as a dystopia for many reasons, as citizens are deprived of freedom, programmed to be emotionless and under the control of a corrupt dictatorship. These points illustrate the irony of a society’s attempt to reach utopia by opposing ethics and morality; citizens are tragically distanced from paradise,

The garden city movement, a method of urban planning that was initiated in 1898 by Sir Ebenezer Howard, had a significant influence on urban planning. The theory of urban planning has envolved over the past hundred years, some have attempted to emulate theories from the garden city movement, while others have been revised based on Howard’s original ideas. The Garden City concept spawned many ideas of urban planning. Among these ideas, the Garden Suburb, Satellite City, the New Towns Movement and the New Urbanism are all significant theories in the history of urban planning and had their influence to this day. The integration of town and country, the separation of conflicting land uses and modes of travel, and the ideas of growth management are all elements of the Garden City concept that have made made their ways into plans of most major Western cities.
