“In Nineteen Eighty Four, society is controlled by inflicting pain. In Brave New World, they are controlled by inflicting pleasure.” To what extent do Brave New World and Nineteen Eighty Four reflect the suppression of an individuals’ freedom through manipulation of external and internal elements? According to Margaret Atwood “In the latter half of the twentieth century, two visionary books cast their shadows over our futures”: the two novels to which she was referring? Brave New World and 1984. At the end of WW2, both Huxley and Orwell, disillusioned and alarmed by what they saw within their own society, produced dark satires describing a dystopian vision of future possibilities.
By referring to money-making as an art, it is suggested that there is a degree of skill required to successfully do so. The term great indicates the intense magnitude and value of money-making as a skill. This idea is reinforced in the statement, of the two the vote and the money- the money seemed infinitely more important. The key term infinitely indicates the unrestricted and eternal value of money. These concepts, as well the figure of Mrs Seton, therefore maintain the notion that access to money is of considerable value.
