Although both Winston and Julia do not like the Party their philosophy when it comes to life and the Party are different. Julia grew up in the time were there was always the Party unlike Winston making her want to rebel against the adults. Julia is pretends to be a conformist but rebells against the Party because she feels she should not be controlled. Julia is part of the Party but rebells when her and Winston make love. Going against Big Brother with Winston was not Julia's first time, proving her to disagreement with The Party thoughts.
The government in 1984 uses fear against its people for control over the personal life of the people. “BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU”.This shows how much power Big Brother has generated to destroy and destruct the past over the people. Julia thought, ‘Organized opposition existed or could exist.’This shows how people hated the Party, but could not do anything to rebel as Big Brother played with their past.
Readers are often angered by the ending of 1984 because of Winston’s betrayal of his previous life for the acceptance of the party. This is a semi-appropriate ending because of the impossibility of going against the party because of their total control of all people’s lives through the use of fear, which had not been accomplished by any authoritarian regime before the rise of the party. The novel’s ending was semi-appropriate because it stresses a society where all people are equal, but on the contrary makes it so that people must give up all of their freedoms and have all of their aspects of life controlled to conform to the standards of the society. The party controls people’s lives off of three founding philosophies “war is peace, freedom is slavery, and ignorance is strength. (Orwell 26) War is peace refers to the fact that if the party always frames another enemy to direct all hate towards.
Gattaca (1997), a science fiction drama film directed by Andrew Niccol and George Orwell’s 1984 both prose a number of concerns and issues. Each text illustrates a dystopian world featuring repressive social control systems, attempting to create a perfect society – that is, a Utopia as well as exploring the issue of conformity vs. rebellion. Throughout the texts, both characters keep their profiles and innate thoughts on low in hope to conceal their inherent intentions to infiltrate the societal strains compelled on them by the dominant government or corporation. These issues are instituted in Gattaca through the use of film techniques – lighting, background, props and costuming. In contrast, Orwell demonstrates these with the use of literary techniques and an unornamented writing style, reflecting the nature of the world of Oceania in 1984.
They’re too stupid to read and write.” These people, once conditioned to follow the previous quote will lose their avility to think. They will judge others by their rankings and more. Another form of conditioning is found in Orwell’s 1984. The citizens were constantly being watched by Big Brother, they had to live in fear. George Orwell, 1984, “You had to live, did live, from habit that became instinct, in the assumption that ever soud you made was overheard.” From these two techniques of social conditioning, the people lose their ability of free thought and expression, and in a sense, their freedom.
Evelyn accuses Lil as being The Ratcatcher: “You made me betray her.” To which Lil responds “I got you through it.” This shows just how untrustworthy Evelyn is of other people because of her past, being sent away by her parents and was left to ultimately believe that they had forgotten about her. This paragraph and the last shows that however close Evelyn is to people, she will always have this issue with trusting people, and it is likely that her subconscious mind believes that everyone she comes close to has taken her away from something – freedom. This links to The Ratcatcher’s significance, as he is constantly taking away children’s freedom, and throughout the play Samuels presents this character via Evelyn constantly. In scene one, an authority figure, the Officer, is the voice of The Ratcatcher, and I believe that in this particular moment of the play the Officer isn’t the only Ratcatcher. The train itself is taking Eva away, so here The Ratcatcher is presented as both this intimidating man and an object, not living.
The relationship between love and violence is demonstrated in this chapter as well. Oscar cannot maintain control over his two girlfriends, but refuses to use the traditional method of control where he would be required to smack the girls around to gain their respect. Even as a child, Oscar is taught that love cannot be maintained without an aspect of violence. His tío Rudolfo reinforces this by suggesting that Oscar grabs a girl and “metéselo”—i.e. stick it in her (in the euphemistic sense).
To prove Daisy’s reasoning fro marrying Tom, she explained, “’Rich girls don’t marry poor boys’” (Fitzgerald, 9). Daisy would reel Gatsby in and then push him away and keep reeling him in and pushing him away. Daisy “played” Gatsby just to make Tom jealous. Daisy had to prove to Tom that if he does not want her, than some other guy will. Jay Gatsby explains how he feels by saying, They were careless people, Tom and Daisy-they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness, or whatever it was that they had made (Fitzgerald, 166).
Each person in the family had abused their position in society and somehow used it to corrupt this young girls mind into making her feel worthless and depressed. The inspector taught the family yet another lesson on what they should do. When he said, “public men have responsibility as well as hit” this quote was the powerful statement that led many people to originally question how much being affluent affects you and what responsibility comes with. It was originally suggested in the stage directions say “the dining room of a fairly large suburban house, belonging to a prosperous manufacturer”, and then continued with the arrogant attitudes of the parents in the Biriling family. Not until nearer the end of the play
Cherrie's is full with juvenile rumours like this one, and it controls the minds of the young innocent cherries, because they have no way of knowing what is true or not anymore. Also the stories could be put into the letters to help add some entertainment for the recipient of the letter. These rumours are important to the narrative because it shapes the way the soldiers fear and think about the enemy. Alan Bourne wrote to his girlfriend that his mission was to “find VC and kill them”; Soldiers have an almost dogmatically believing that whatever they are ordered is law and must be followed without hesitation. Most soldiers would not even know the cause of the war they just know that ‘VC’ are the enemy and you must “Kill them”.
