A Brave New World Diary Essay

Decent Essays
Rationale

I wrote a diary based on the literary text A Brave New World, because I wanted to express Lenina´s feelings in her best and worst days of her life. It was written with an informal tone and is addressed for a teenager´s audience.

In my diary, I used first person perspective with phrases like “I met a handsome blonde man named Jhon” and “I realized that it was something that made me feel good”. I tried as well to use an easy level of vocabulary to make the understanding of emotions and ideas clearly with words like “furious, bad, and lonely” and “I´m crazy”.

I wrote a diary to show how Lenina met John and how she starts feeling love, something she didn´t know that existed. I chose this text type because it allows me to get inside the character and to reflect how she was feeling, giving details and adding some

Numerous late night discussions such as China-Tibet conflict gradually equipped me with cosmopolitan lens and faded my national identity. Moreover, UWC shaped me into an idealist and pragmatist. The utopian mission ignites my aspiration to pursue a peaceful and sustainable future for human beings.…

    A theme shared by Brave New World and the article “Why Republicans Still Reject the Science of Global Warming” is the idea that individuals with a great deal of power will try and deny certain aspects of science in order to promote their opposing ideas.

The World State tries to keep this stability by leaving the dangerous part of science unknown to citizens in order for them to be blind to the truth, and keep the concept of anonymity in balance.…

    Prompt 1: Which dystopian vision of the future became the more accurate vision? I believe 1984 became the more accurate version because of its similarities with 2017 in social structure, technology, and its society as a whole. Their similarities in social structure consist of of having classes from lowest to greatest such as proles, the party, and big brother. All of which are similar to our classes of lower class, middle class, and upper class. The proles are considered to be the average everyday people living in society which to us is our lower and middle class while the party is the high ranking officials and politicians that have a say in what the nation does is similar to our 1%, the upper class with big brother being the head of the nation.…

    I remember the day when I had the thought that would from that day on never fail to amaze me. I remember walking down Michigan Avenue in Chicago with the smell of Garrett Popcorn and sewage roaming the air. I remember seeing businessmen and business women making their way to work rolling their briefcases down the street. I remember the massive amount of tourists, including myself, stopping every five feet to take pictures of the beautiful sights of the city. I remember thinking to myself, “Why can’t these people learn how to walk in a polite and organized fashion?”…

In Brave New World by Aldous Huxley, independence is never experienced, this is made clear through the characters Bernard Marx, Helmholtz Watson, and John the Savage. Freedom is understood in many ways, these three characters all struggle for liberty, each of them want to feel what they believe to be individualistic, despite all wanting to be free in different senses. In a so called “perfect world,” each human is given the life they’re expected to live, which undeniably follows with no outlook or perspective. The three subjects that struggle with this lifestyle, are the same people that genuinely need individuality to feel complete.…

    Thus, she creates a new persona and written self and soon, “this impersonal self, this cultural negative capability, becomes the truest thing about [her]” (121). When she writes about her new experiences in English, she is creating a new Eva who is completely different from the old Ewa all because the language is different. There are no longer “sentimental effusions of rejected love, eruptions of familial anger, or consoling broodings about death” in her writing because “English is not the language of such emotions” (121). Hoffman has lost the ability to express herself in the way she is familiar with in Polish and the emotions that she wants to write cannot be fully expressed in…

    In this paper I will examine the two short stories ‘A Diary Of a Madman’ by Nikolai Gogol and ‘The Yellow Wallpaper’ by Charlotte Perkins Gilman. ‘The Yellow Wallpaper’ tells the story of an unnamed married woman who--according to the narration-- suffers from a ‘temporary nervous depression’ and as the story progresses she gradually loses her sense of self and reality. The story of Ivanovich Poprishchin in ‘A Diary of a Madman’ progresses in a similar manner, as the anxious and socially withdrawn Russian titular councilor experiences the fast downfall of his sanity. I will focus on analyzing the characterization of the protagonists and how their development affects the narration.…

We both stood in front of this large white drape covering a door to the backyard, it had a faint purple pink colors shining through.
