Inside the house, Lois tells Stewie ‘Why don’t you go play in the other room?’, to which he replies ‘Why don’t you go burn in hell?’. The similar construction of the sentences is part of the humor of the scene. Nevertheless, it was regretfully removed in the adapting process: when Lois says ‘Je préférerais que tu ailles jouer dans ta chambre’, Stewie answers ‘Un jour tu paieras cette cruauté’. The translators could have seriously kept the effect by having Stewie say something along the lines of…

Last but not least, one of the most important shared themes between these two novels is individualism and collectivism. This theme appears vividly in every inch of both novels thus it indicates that although Orwell and Huxley imagined two complete different futures of their current societies, in some cases such as this, they had the same type of advanced point of view. In general, individualism and collectivism are two co-existing different ideologies that oppose one another. Individualism is a…

The Golem by Avram Davidson is a retelling of a Jewish folklore with a twist that makes it stand out from other science fiction tales. Evident from the title of the story, the story starts with the appearance of a golem at the porch of an old couple’s home. The old couple – Mr. and Mrs. Gumbeiner – react very calmly to the situation, unlike how characters usually react in science fiction stories when they encounter a monster-like or alien-like being. Their indifference towards the golem and the…

Four hundred and fifty-one degrees is the temperature at which paper catches fire and burns. Written by Ray Bradbury, Fahrenheit 451 must have to do with burning books, given the title. Guy Montag, the main character, is one of the book burners, also known as a “fireman” in their society. Their job is to start fires instead of stopping them. In Fahrenheit 451, Bradbury uses Montag’s transformation from a fireman to a revolutionary to illustrate how knowledge and self-reflection can change…

Books, at its very core, were illegal and banned by the government. Beatty, the captain of the fire department, represented everything firefighter Guy Montag…

In Margaret Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale, the reader is introduced into a futuristic, dystopian society that is built on the remnants of the United States, called Gilead. Throughout the novel, Atwood uses satire to mock and warn the United States of the danger in the strongly held political opinions in the 1980’s, when the book was written. Atwood extrapolates the ideas to their extremes, showing the danger of their acceptance. The absurdity and outrageousness of her exaggerations give the novel…

As long as the people in the society do not break the law of reading books or gaining knowledge, they…
