The protagonist in Orwell’s 1984 is Winston Smith. In the novel the reader experiences the dangers of a totalitarian world through the eyes of Winston Smith. He, unlike the other citizens of Oceania, is aware of the illusions that the Party, Big Brother, and the Thought Police institute.

Totalitarianism is a form of rule in which the government has complete or “total” control over society.

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.

Oceania is controlled by a strict government regime known as the Party in which the leader is Big Brother. Throughout the novel, Winston outwardly conforms while questioning inwardly the morals and existence of the Party and Big Brother. However, Winston’s unsuccessful questioning and attempt to overthrow the Party and Big Brother symbolize the collapse of mankind at the hands of Socialism.

In George Orwell’s novel “1984” he discusses how the government keeps their citizens under surveillance to assure they are controlled and so they do not rebel or disrespect their form of government. Their surveillance consists of helicopters scouting around the buildings, looking into people’s homes and the telescreens that watch over people as they live their lives. Some people may argue that we are under the same type of government. We do not have helicopters looking into our house or telescreens that monitor us, However we do have GPS in our phones that monitor our location at any given time, which is like a more efficient way than using helicopters. We have cameras all around the country that monitor our every movement which is a more advanced version of the telescreen. As time passes, we see technology advanced enough to observe our daily lives at any given time, do you think we are under the control of big brother?

The Party in 1984 by George Orwell, and Soviet Russia under Stalin's control are very similar in multiple ways as they both showed the dangers of totalitarianism. History shows that as fear grows, individualism dies, and all hope seems to perish, the spark lights the fire and humanity starts to thrive once more, however if the wick is wet, then it will ultimately time time for it to dry once more.

Similar to Oceania, the citizens of Nazi Germany operate under governments that are strict against the actions of the citizens. While in North Korea, there is always constant warfare going around.

Written by George Orwell in 1949, 1984 introduces the reader to the totalitarian country of Oceania, ruled by the all-knowing Brother and the Party. Winston Smith, a single man quietly opposing the Party, sees Brother two different ways in the novel; for almost the entire novel he hates everything that Brother is. After his capture, the original hatred of Brother is changed to absolute love, through the use of highly developed torture methods. Thus the reader, through the eyes of Winston, is able to make connections between the two sides of Brother and the similarities to God.

Imagine a world in which you are constantly being watched. False history, monitored sex, no freedom. Obfuscating fact with falsehood becomes the standard, it is expected. Your entire life is decided for you, and you do not even know it. You are even content with it.

Totalitarianism is a system in which the government regulates and control people's lives. The leadership controls education, science, information and even the private live of its citizens. Rules are created to be followed in order to have total control. "He drove forty miles an hour and they jailed him for two days. Isn't that funny, and sad, too?" (Ray Bradbury, 6).

As human beings, there are distinct characteristics that separate us from feral animals; the ability to create, to appreciate art, to curiously question the world and most importantly to sympathize for our kind. However, when that exact nature is stripped from us, we tend to become mindless, restricted, cold, and degraded as an entire race. This is the setting of George Orwell’s last book, 1984. A world where human thought is limited, war and poverty lie on every street corner, and one cannot trust nobody or nothing. It is all due to the one reigning political entity, the Ingsoc Party, who imposes complete power over all aspects of life for all citizens. There is no creative or intellectual thought, no art, culture or history, and no

Various totalitarian regimes and governments have taken control of different states. Totalitarianism is when the government takes control and centralizes the state. With this type of system the state controls every aspect of public and private life. Regardless of what part of the world, totalitarianism creates an entire new lifestyle for the citizens. During Nazi Germany, the Soviet Union, Communist China or other documented totalitarian governments, life for citizens has no freedom.

During Joseph Stalin’s regime of the Soviet Union, 1984, the Classic Dystopian novel by George Orwell, was burned and banned, because the book shone a negative light on communism. The book, 1984, follows the life of Winston Smith, who lives in a country called Oceania. Oceania is a totalitarian society, ruled by a government known as The Party, whose leader is called Big Brother. In Oceania, every movement and sound every person makes is constantly surveillanced, and one wrong facial expression, statement, or action can cause the ‘Thought Police’ to take the person away to never be seen again.

The novel 1984 was written by George Orwell and published in 1950. The main characters were Big Brother, Winston Smith, Julia, O’Brien, Syme and Emmanuel Goldstein. Winston Smith is a low man on the totem pole when it came to the ruling Party in London, Oceania. His every move is watched by the Party through devices called telescreens. Posted everywhere around the city is the face of their leader, “Big Brother” informing them that he is always watching.

His shocking and rebellious act is “falling in love.” Throughout this novel George Orwell utilizes symbolism to further enhance the totalitarian features of the society. In many ways these symbols represent the things that this society hasn’t experienced and doesn’t understand.
