Brave New World Civilization 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.

"'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 by Aldous Huxley, John’s identities are influenced by two opposite societies, and even though he tries to prove his manhood and change the framework of brave new world, he can’t gain real acceptance from anywhere. John’s mother, Linda, is from the brave new world but gave birth to him in the savage reservation and her different behaviors based on the framework of the brave new world caused John’s isolation in the savage reservation. John decides to move to the brave new world and becomes popular in this society, but his identity, influenced by his “savage” culture, can’t be accepted by the community. His conflict with the brave new world finally forces him to try to change the framework of the society, but his attempt is

Cursed to a life of isolation because of his appearance, values, and outrageous thoughts, John was alienated mentally, emotionally, and physically in both the Savage Culture and the World State Culture. Torn between keeping true to his virtues and conforming to society, the treatment of John highlights the values of both cultures in Aldous Huxley's Brave New World.

Exile is when a person is isolated from his/her native country or home. Sometimes it's considered to be a way of alienating someone but sometimes it could be considered to be enriching. In the book Brave New World by Aldous Huxley John the Savage experiences exile as both alienating and enriching. He was born on the Savage Reservation and his mother Linda was rejected and criticized because of her sexual freedom. Due to his mother’s isolation John did not feel as though he was accepted by other savages in the reservation. As an adolescent he was refused to participate in the Native American ritual, a ritual that would allow him to enter the adult Indian society. He asks, “why wouldn’t they let me be the sacrifice?”(pg.116). He asks this question not understanding why his own people were denying him. After his rejection he goes into the wilderness and tortures himself in order to enter adulthood. This is one of many ways his society kept him from being a normal kid.

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.

John the Savage’s view of civilization was greatly enhanced after he left the sheltered community of his tribe. When he first arrives in “utopia” London, he is amazed by the aesthetic of the city and the people who live there; here he recognizes how different the paradisal city is from the barbarous environment of his tribe. John exclaims,“how many godly creatures are there here! How beautiful mankind is!” (129). John is exemplifying the value of learning a new culture and religion from the perspective of one who has been sequestered

Society tricks the Savage by making him believe that he is free and able to do whatever he wants when in reality, he was not granted these liberties. John is shown what makes the society “civilized” and what makes the society work, but he doesn’t agree with any of their methods. However, when John asks Mond if he can go to the islands with his friends, Mond refuses to let him because he says that John needs to stay for experimentation. He is trapped

This does not end well because Bernard and Helmholtz get a call to come and pick up John. All three of them end up getting arrested because of their rebellious action (Huxley 215). All three of them are sent to go Mustapha Mond (Huxley 218). Then after John and Mond have their argument, John is sent away (Huxley 230-240). John wants to leave this new world with Bernard, but he is not allowed to because it would impact the Mond’s experiment with John (Huxley 242). John ends up running away to an abandoned lighthouse to start a new life with no one around him (Huxley 245). John’s actions are to the point physical abuse towards himself because of his feelings (Huxley 250). Then Lenina shows up at John’s lighthouse, which causes John to rage and attack her (Huxley 257). In the end, John wakes up and was not happy with his decisions from the previous night so he decided to kill himself (Huxley

Throughout the novel, Brave New World written by Aldous Huxley, the second protagonist John, views the world through Shakespearian eyes. “But I don't want comfort. I want God, I want poetry, I want real danger, I want freedom, I want goodness. I want sin.” In several significant ways, John's knowledge of Shakespeare empowers him to be able to speak of his reactions and emotions and to be able to criticize the World State values. With his viewing the world through Shakespearean eyes, it allows John the power to realize all the values the World State had abandoned. Since John is the outsider to all the World States Value’s, since he will never and can never express his love for Lenina, and he is forced to suicide, he shows most of the traits

John experiences exile on three occasions during Aldous Huxley's novel Brave New World. During each exile, his lifestyle contradicts the morals, ideas, and behaviors of the Savage Reservation and the World State.

John, a savage, has never been able to fit in society. Moving through two contradicting societies, John is unable to adapt to the major differences of the civilized society due to the different ways upon how it is conducted. Living with the savages, John feels isolated from the savages as they exclude him from most of their norms. John wanted to

Bernard Marx is an upper class Alpha who constantly struggles being different from the rest of the Alphas, and, in the beginning, tries to find a way to become more popular. By the end of the novel, Marx has come to terms with the society which he had first seemed to dislike. Marx meets a woman called Lenina Crowne, and they both travel to a savage reservation. There, Marx and Lenina meet John the savage and his mother Linda. Linda is originally from the civilized world and became pregnant which, in that society, is illegal and was sent to Reservation herself. Once brought back to the New World, John soon found the differences between the two worlds to great. All his values and morals clashed with those of the new society. It turns out, John was the only sane person left. He didn't understand how the citizens lived the way they did, with no morals or values. There, he struggled for his right to think freely. To be happy, to be sad, to be mad, to

Isolation is an important factor in the story because it creates an inevitable prison of detachment and despair that John has no way of escaping. John does not feel at home with the rest of the few Englishmen living in Burma because of their bigotry, yet he does not fit in with the
