George Orwell’s novel, 1984, and Thomas C. Foster’s novel, How To Read Literature Like A Professor, have several comparisons. Winston Smith, thirty-nine year old worker for the Ministry of Truth, is stuck in a totalitarian environment that he strongly disagrees with. However it is wise for him to keep his feelings to himself because “Big Brother is always watching.” 1984 relates widely to chapter thirteen, It’s All Political , of How To Read Literature Like A Professor. 1984 is a novel with…

How do you think the animals on your wall feel? They don't, because you killed them. Trophy killing needs to have harsher penalties, it is utterly brutal. Animals suffer for minutes after being shot, all for your pleasure. Imagine your family and friends being shot around you then hung on the wall. Hunters get permits to hunt…

In the novel 1984 by George Orwell, one man by the name of Winston is caught in what seems to be a human drive to escape the power of Big Bother as he wonders why the government works behind closed doors and separates in different ministries such as the ministry of love, peace, plenty, and truth. His mentality is that people need to know what is going on outside of Oceania, and that history is not controlled by superiors in the government, but through its original author. In this regard, Winston…

large amount of freedom to express themselves. The fictional nation in George Orwell’s 1984 can be seen as a metaphor for a totalitarian society. Personal beliefs, Individuality and freedom of speech are all controlled by the inner party which manages the people of Oceania to prevent them from rebelling against the government. Current society in the United States of America is more of a democratic society, which contrasts with George Orwell’s 1984 society becase personal beliefs, individuality…

Boxing and cinema have had a long lasting relationship. The first boxing film ever made dated back to 1894. Only 37 seconds were filmed during this match. No one seemed to care that won the match, but this film setup the bond created between boxing and films. Boxing films have come a long way, from making films representing heart and respect to fighting for money and fame. Along the timeline of boxing movies, one film that is known as one of the most recognized sport films of all time is Rocky…

Pablo Picasso is probably the most important figure of 20th century, in terms of art, and art movements that occurred over this period. Before the age of 50, the Spanish born artist had become the most well known name in modern art, with the most distinct style and eye for artistic creation. There had been no other artists, prior to Picasso, who had such an impact on the art world, or had a mass following of fans and critics alike, as he did. Although his art career spanned over a 7 decade…

Boxer is a cart-horse on the farm that is well known for his large, strong frame in which he uses to get a lot of the labor on the farm accomplished. His abilities show during the Battle of Cowshed and when he works in the fields, but especially on the windmill, when he carries a lot of the stones by himself. However, he has a slight dumb appearance due to a white stripe down his nose. To prove these descriptions in Animal Farm, “Boxer was an enormous beast, nearly eighteen hands high, and…

songs mostly by John Lennon and Paul McCartney. Overall I really like this album and would recommend this album to people. The band members in this band are Paul McCartney, John Lennon, Ringo Starr, and George Harrison. Ringo played the drums, John played rhythm guitar, Paul played bass and George was lead guitar. Paul Mccartney and John Lennon were the main singers in most of the songs. The Beatles are very well known and were a big hit from…

In the novel 1984, it talks about a society in the future that controls every aspect of life and every little move anyone makes is recorded and documented for the government to see. The saying “Big Brother is watching you” is referred to many times in this book since Big Brother is the leader of The Party and also the one that can be referred to as a god. With the advancement of technology at a steady rate, we may think to ourselves that this world may become what orwell described in his novel…

overall essence of the novel. But due to the level of engagement of Squealer, a character analysis of this character seems most suitable. Squealer, a pig, is the underdog, the messenger, and the public relations officer. This character, as portrayed by George Orwell, is seen repeatedly handling the relations between the animals without political authority and the “leader”, “the father of all animals”, Napoleon. Whenever Napoleon and the pigs seemed to oversee any of the seven commandments,…
