Brave New World Analysis

In Brave New World, Aldous Huxley uses tone to develop characters in the novel while simultaneously showing that every character is cast out at some point in their lives. This utopian future setting is developed throughout the whole first half of the novel.The entire culture is different, children are genetically bred and conditioned in so called Hatcheries. “ “Stability,” said the controller, “Stability. No civilization without social stability. No social stability without individual stability” (page 42) Each person supports a specific role in society, and if they break that role they are exiled. Readers get the chance to meet a few characters who question why they were even decanted or in John's case, Born.

First, community is reinforced when the phrase “every one belongs to every one else” is said by Lenini, Fanny, and later Henry Foster(Huxley 43, 46). This introduces the idea that the people in the community are a support system for each other. Second, the idea of identity is reinforced by the separation of the classes and the value for intelligence. The higher classes are looked up at because of their intelligence and ability. On the other hand, the lower classes are looked down upon because of their lack of intelligence and ability. Third, stability is reinforced when the Controller says “No civilization without social stability. No social stability without individual stability(Huxley 42).” He stresses the importance of stability of society and goes on to explain that war and unhappiness is caused by an unstable society. Also, he explains how far society has come and the struggle to establish the “perfect

Brave New World by Aldous Huxley shows how scientific advances could and have destroyed human values. Huxley wrote Brave New World in 1932, and most of the technologies he examines in the book have, to some extent, turned into realities. He expresses the concern that society has been neglecting human-being distinction in the progression of worshipping technology. In the story there are no mothers or fathers and people are produced on a meeting line where they are classified before birth. They also use a drug called, soma, to control themselves which illustrate the lack of personal freedom. Everyone in the state world do whatever they were taught since they were growing. For example, one of the tasks they give people is sexuality which is

In the novel, Brave New World by Aldous Huxley, Huxley includes allusion, ethos, and pathos to mock the wrongdoings of the people which causes physical and mental destruction in the society as a whole. The things that happened in the 1930’s plays a big contribution to the things that go on in the novel. The real world can never be looked at as a perfect place because that isn't possible. In this novel, Huxley informs us on how real life situations look in his eyes in a nonfictional world filled with immoral humans with infantile minds and a sexual based religion.

"'God isn't compatible with machinery and scientific medicine and universal happiness.'" So says Mustapha Mond, the World Controller for Western Europe in Aldous Huxley's novel Brave New World. In doing so, he highlights a major theme in this story of a Utopian society. Although the people in this modernized world enjoy no disease, effects of old age, war, poverty, social unrest, or any other infirmities or discomforts, Huxley asks 'is the price they pay really worth the benefits?' This novel shows that when you must give up religion, high art, true science, and other foundations of modern life in place of a sort of unending happiness, it is not worth the sacrifice.

In Brave New World Aldous Huxley, creates a dystopian society which is scientifically advance in order to make life orderly, easy, and free of trouble. This society is controlled by a World State who is not question. In this world life is manufactured and everyone is created with a purpose, never having the choice of free will. Huxley use of irony and tone bewilders readers by creating a world with puritanical social norms, which lacks love, privacy and were a false sense of happiness is instituted, making life meaningless and controlled.

In this world where people can acquire anything they need or want, we have to wonder, “Is the government controlling us?” Both the governments in A Brave New World and in the United States of America offer birth control pills and have abortion clinics that are available for everyone, thus making birth control pills and abortion operations very easy to acquire. Although both governments offer birth control pills and abortion clinics, A Brave New World’s government requires everyone to take the pills and immediately get an abortion when pregnant. This in turn shows us that A Brave New World’s government is controlling the population and the development of children. China is one of the few countries that currently have control of the

In the Sci-fi futuristic novel “Brave New World”, published in 1932, Aldous Huxley introduces the idea of the utopian society, achieved through technological advancement in biology and chemistry, such as cloning and the use of controlled substances. In his novel, the government succeeds in attaining stability using extreme forms of control, such as sleep teaching, known as conditioning, antidepressant drugs – soma and a strict social caste system.

In a Brave New World, by Aldous Huxley, the world state conditions babies to the environment and job they will have by caste. So if you're a Delta, the state conditions you to work in factories and to hate reading and nature. They condition you to like your work and your environment. Huxley gives us a new view of conditioning not by family, school, or friends. But instead by the government. In the story, there is a social predestination room that determines what job you will work in society. Huxley is showing predestination not on a supernatural level but on a political level. But in today's world, we are conditioned through other ways and have more freedom compared to the citizens in the world state.

In Brave New World, the author Aldous Huxley predicts a future, like no other, where truth is trumped by happiness. The people in the World State are ignorant of the truth. They mistake the truth as happiness. This ignorance leads them to believe that a tablet called soma is used “to calm your anger, to reconcile you to your enemies, to make you patient” (Huxley 213). Through drugs and conditioning, the government has kept the World State uninformed of the truth. Being controlled by the government, people in the World State do not know society is built upon lies. Throughout this novel, John, Bernard, and Helmholtz, go through this Dystopia lifestyle being a savage, a misfit and too intellectual for the society they are born or

Life  for Americans in the 1900s was very tension filled and fragile since the country was just coming out of the Red Scare. Aldous produced a book called  Brave New World, in which “controllers” in the book could easily manipulate and control the ignorance of people by doing drugs “soma” and being conditioned to think all is well, fine, and dandy. I think the controllers do this is to hide everyone from the reality everything was setup perfect for them and nothing could go wrong. The government used the drug “soma” as a way to make everyone high and belligerent to the point that the would agree to anything that the world state wanted. Taking soma makes everyone crave it even more because it is
