One of the most interesting fictional thought created in the novel, is the process of cloning people. In the perspective of Aldous Huxley, he believes that the world would be better off without the process of growth. Therefore, he created a technique (Bokanovsky’s Process) that would fasten the advancement of growth and bring sophisticated people into its society. As a reader, I noticed how Huxley symbolized social stability as the Bokanovsky’s Process. The author utilizes symbolism when the Bokanovsky’s

Utopia which written by Thomas More is a story that can only be applied as an imagination. More uses more than a half space of the book for discussing how a perfect world looks like because he wants to provide all the details of a prefect kingdom for readers to create their imagination. He also tries to have readers to ponder the differences between the imaginal world: Utopia, and the real world. This is a reflection of More’s value. He sees the weakness of the society, and also predicts the future

Hawaiians have experienced difficulty with understanding their identity since the arrival of the first haoles.

The final result was the destruction

Throughout the book, A Brave New World, Aldous Huxley predicts a world with citizens that are addicted to a government-endorsed drug.

A Brave New World predicts a world that is drug reliant and society today is reflecting the same theme. Analytical Portion: Due to the government-issued drug of soma, the World State’s citizens are happily unaware and

In Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World, the use of drugs has a major impact as to how society will function in the future. Huxley’s vision for the future is very similar as to how the world is run today. By creating the idea of soma, a drug that is regulated by the government and given to every person in the World State, Huxley is constructing a society that is dependent upon narcotics that aim to achieve peace and happiness among all working classes. Huxley’s attempt to predict the distribution of drugs

Distortion in Brave New World   Distortion is an image of a thought or idea that appears to have a single affect on a society, but in actuality provides one that is totally different.

In doing this he urges the reader to engage in a deep thought process that forces them to realize the reality of a situation, rather

Research Paper: Love in Utopia, Brave New World and 1984 Love is without a doubt one of the most powerful emotions in the world.

The governments in both Brave New World and 1984 understand that eliminating love and loyalty is important in their continual

     "'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.
