Reflection On 1984

Once upon a time there was a dentist named Mr.Winston who also fought crime. He was in his office one night when a burglar tried to break in and rob him. The burglar did not know that Winston was in the office finishing some important paperwork. Winston heard something suspicious, so he went to check it out. When he got to the main lobby, he saw the burglar trying to get into the office.

My paper starts off fairly strong by stating who Dillons is addressing along with the purpose behind the audience he is trying to reach and using quotes to back up what I am saying. The thesis continues following what I introduce and follows the build of the paper. The first paragraph could use some work. It starts off with a quote analyzing the rhetorical choice of statistic however it could go more in depth and take more consideration of how it impacts Dillons audience. The second quote I use however does not analyze and it turns the second half into summarization of the point Dillons was making.

As the years go by, technology grows and advances tremendously. Since technology is constantly expanding and creating new opportunities it is being controlled, monitored, and protected by security agencies and even the government. One writer, Nathan Schlueter, author of “The True Lessons of 1984,” published in 2017, states that the book “1984,” is a warning against socialism and its dangers. Schlueter begins his article with convincing facts, opinions, and details from the book, “1984.”

Looking back at my past papers, I decided to do revise my Textual Rhetorical Analysis. I came to this decision when I noticed how weak my introductory paragraph was. I then noticed that there were other areas that I could improve on within my Textual Rhetorical Analysis. The first thing I changed was my title. Although my title gave a nice introduction to what my essay was going to be about, I thought it needed to be more intriguing.

Dystopian texts espouse a variety of didactic messages that depend significantly upon both the context and zeitgeist of the time in which they were created. Differences can be found when comparing the techniques and perspectives the authors have chosen to represent their contextual concerns to audiences. Together both Fritz Lang’s silent black and white film ‘Metropolis’ 1927 and George Orwell’s novel ‘Nineteen Eighty-Four’ (*referred to as 1984) 1948, confront and provoke audiences to consider the impact that (abusive power + unquestionable control= insert question statement) can have not only on the characters in these two texts, but also on the cultural and political lives of the reader and viewer. By subjugating & dehumanising the lower classes, dictators are

Freedom is when you are able to do what you want, when you want, being worry and trouble free. In George Orwell 's book, 1984, some of the characters, like Winston, do not have freedom due to the fear instilled by the Thought Police. The Thought Police, which are affiliated with The Party, prevent the occurrence of Thoughtcrime, much like the law enforcement system system in the United States. The Party they choose for Winston a career that he might or might not be suited for. He is not even able to pursue a marriage partner that he wants to spend his life with, The Party chooses for him.

Marcelo Navarro Mr. duryea English 12 March 15, 2018 Inhumane The Book 1984 is a book based on a totalitarian government where the government has complete and total control over every aspect of someone's life. In 1984 you couldn't even have privacy in your own home, you would be under constant supervision and if you were caught doing something illegal the thought police would come and arrest you. In 1984 the government controlled its people through fear, the people of 1984 where always scared of being caught doing anything illegal and where also scared because the government would bomb itself saying that they were in a war. This book shows what could happen if people would let

1984: An Unfortunate Banning What is freedom of expression? Without the freedom to offend, it ceases to exist. Salman Rushdie, British-Indian author (1947-)

In the novel 1984, by George Orwell, he uses truth and reality as a theme throughout the novel to demonstrate the acts of betrayal and loyalty through the characters of Winston and Julia. Orwell expresses these themes through the Party, who controls and brainwashes the citizens of Oceania. The party is able to control its citizens through “Big Brother,” a fictional character who is the leader of Oceania. Big Brother is used to brainwash the citizens into whatever he says. Orwell uses truth and reality in this book to reflect on what has happened in the real world such as the Holocaust and slavery.

George Orwell’s 1984: How Doublethink is the Most Powerful Weapon for Control Being able to believe two paradoxical statements at one time sounds impossible but it is more common than believed. It is called doublethink, which is the ability to hold two contradictory beliefs on a topic and wholeheartedly believing them both at the same time. This term was coined by George Orwell and it becomes the main tool for control over the citizens of Oceania in his novel 1984. Orwell created a totalitarian future in hopes it would serve as a warning to preceding generations as to how the government can metamorphose into having complete power over a population to the point where they even control the thought process of the human mind.

In 1984, George Orwell depicts a dystopian society pervaded by government control and the obsolescence of human emotion and society. Winston is forced to confront the reality of a totalitarian rule where the residents of Oceania are manipulated to ensure absolute government control and servitude of the people. The theme of totalitarianism and dystopia is employed in 1984 to grant absolute power to the government and ensure the deference of the people through the proliferation of propaganda, the repudiation of privacy and freedom, and the eradication of human thought and values. The repudiation of privacy and independent thought and the ubiquity of government surveillance is employed to secure absolute power to the government over the populace

In the united states today the government has so much power than what people may think. They have control over innocent citizens. The kind of power the government has over us has gotten to a limit where now they know where we are at and all of our private information safe on our cell phones. George Orwell’s novel 1984 gives a great example of how the government controls the people. In the novel they tell us about the government from Oceania, and how they control every single second of the citizens’ lives.

It’s crazy how many books and story lines can be so similar yet be written by different people and in different time periods. Brave New World was written in 1932 and in 1949 George Orwell published 1984, but both share some of the same elements. The movie The Hunger Games came out more recently, in 2012, and it is also somewhat similar to these novels. They all share the same dystopian elements, which include, futuristic, illusion of a perfect society, protagonist who rebels, and a totalitarian control. In Brave New World everyone must live according to the values of The World State, they are controlled through pleasure.

Although critics argue science fiction is redundant, the reality is science fiction is innovating as it prompts towards an aspiring future. This is seen throughout the scifi genre as worlds, galaxies, and universes are created where there are superior beings, and technology. Humanity has a tendency to invent unfeasible marvels of technology in the mind, and then spend a lifetime attempting to recreate such feat in the real word. It is as the saying goes all acts begin through the imagination. This is especially true in sific as all that is brought to life through literature, first began as an act of imagination by someone.

If the author provides examples of what someone said long ago, the readers captivated with his examples because things and people were different back then. His ending idas are not clear for the readers to his final statement and their final take on the article with construing examples and surprising thesis statement all the at the end of the article. He talks about how technologies overflow an individual 's perception of reality and then he puts his main idea the end saying no one can achieve personal authenticity (5). It seemed unclear and sloppy because the reader might not get nothing from the article. It would have made more sense if u had the thesis at the beginning but not end to prove his
