Comparing Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four 1984 and Western Religion

The idea about human to reconcile the uncertainties of the past with a new or present situation. Throughout the year I studied the texts about, novel 1984 by George Orwell, a film Good Will Hunting and Shakespeare's play Hamlet. In these texts because the characters' uncertainty about the past, they won’t succeed in future situations in their lives. I'm referring from the text of how these uncertainties can have an effect for these protagonists throughout the story until they reach tougher situations.

Big Brother is who everything in the insoc party. Big Brother is who everyone followed and had to love. He was the one who the party followed and he watched everyone to make sure they followed the rules. Hatered was a big part of the parties. Hitler hated everyone who didn’t fit what he pictured as a “perfect nation”.

1984 is a great book which shows the problems with totalitarian regimes. Many point to certian aspects of it and warn that America is on its way to becoming similar to it. I will analyze the possibility of the USA becoming similar to the regime in the book book by looking at the main slogan of the party that runs that regime.

1984 is a novel written by George Orwell, the main theme of the novel is about how totalitarian society can control every aspect of a person thought, sexuality and action. Totalitarianism can be define as a repressive one-party that has total control over people thoughts and actions. In 1984, people are being control totally by the Party through device such as the telescreen. People are stripped away from their freedom to do things that they want. The Party wants people to only focus on improving the Party and set everything else aside. Love is nonexistent in this government and the Party’s policy strictly forbids sex. The Party restrains people from falling in love with one another.

Being confined within rules and boundaries sends some people into mass chaos. To rebel is to go with your own instinct, which ends up opposing someone else. Comfort zones for a government is taking the easy way out and playing it completely safe, scratching the surface of our personal rights and freedoms. A government that tends to take control and possession of their people is a government that does not let free will and freedom thrive and take its place within that specific country. Within the two pieces of literature, 1984 and Divergent both have a government that wants all control for themselves.

Although modern society may not be a totalitarian society, 1984 reflects many of modern society’s circumstances. Such as psychological understanding, surveillance technology, and wealth distribution. As a result of this, the society of 1984 may not be as far off from today as would seem, from 1984 society's wealth to standard of living, both places share many similarities.

Big Brother was the face of the party. He serves as a reassurance to most of the citizens, but he is also a threat, because no one can escape his stare. The name Big Brother provides a form of irony considering when generally speaking about a big brother, you are talking about someone that provides comfort, trust and protection; but in this situation Big Brother means the opposite, he is based off of Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin. He constantly is watching the citizens in some shape or form, making him not only a threat but the biggest

Since the onset of the United States, Americans have always viewed the future in two ways; one, as the perfect society with a perfect government, or two, as a communistic hell where free will no longer exists and no one is happy. The novel 1984 by George Orwell is a combination of both theories. On the "bad" side, a communist state exists which is enforced with surveillance technology and loyal patriots. On the "good" side, however, everyone in the society who was born after the hostile takeover, which converted the once democratic government into a communist government, isn't angry about their life, nor do they wish to change any aspect of their life. For the few infidels who

Moral issues, big problems, with very small attention. Could this be the reason our society is falling apart today? Is this the reason why some people, are blaming the nation's biggest massacre, on the government? To distract us, to take us into some other place, where war isn't happening, where there isn't a wall being built. Is this what George Orwell was talking about in his book 1984? To warn us about what lies ahead, what we should expect? In the book 1984, the author George Orwell, does a great job of demonstrating why moral issues are a concern, and he does it in a way that is easy to understand. He makes the problem, seem big, even though to us today it seems very small. He shows moral issues that are very important and need to be addressed, like government control, and technology. It's a part of our everyday life, and is the reason our society is the way it is. What is this issue, you might be asking. Well the answer is simple; the Government.

Big Brother’s Divinity: Disguised Elements of Religion Within Forced Secularity in George Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four

1984 by George Orwell centers around a controlling and unstable government on the hunt for power. The theme of 1984 being that as a society we should not give the government more power in the name of fear or justice because before we know it freedom will be a thing of the past. George Orwell creates the perfect portrayal of a society in which the government has absolute power. The telescreens in each and every room symbolizing the lack of freedom, the slogans for the parties showing the government's control over our thoughts and ideas. A government that gives out rations of food, minimal clothing, changes history on a daily basis, and leaves the citizens oblivious to the past and the outside world. It becomes clear in the first few pages how

I have started on my second book called "1984" and around 90 pages deep. For this reflection I am doing a book comparison between my last book "How We Decide". Both books are totally different. "How we Decide" shows the aspect of how the human mind makes choices. The author explained how we decide from right to wrong and how this is triggered inside the mind. The book is classified as non-fiction Psychology. There is no characters in the book besides the people that the author uses in different studies. The author uses a group of people or he singles out a person to show an example of how the brain works. However 1984 is political fiction and dystopian novel. I have never read one before but watched the "Hunger Games" which is based off the

1984 is a work of fiction taking place in a dystopian world where “The Ruling Party”, otherwise known as the Government, controls and observes all of the nation’s citizens. With the help

Hypothesis become theories and theories become laws. Brave New World and 1984 were both predictions made in the 1900s about what the future of the world would be like. Both of these books were written during the time when communism rose, and they show a world where it would have been like if communism was never struck down. Certainly, one novel makes a better prediction of the future than the other, and this case it will be 1984. 1984 is a better prediction because certain aspects are similar to it which can be seen socially and politically.

The face of the Party and the leader behind all the great power in this society is Big Brother. “Big Brother Is Watching You.” Is one of the most obvious symbols in the novel 1984. Big Brother is there for reassurance and is portrayed as a trustworthy leader for many, yet
