New World

In Brave New World, the author Aldous Huxley uses the World State’s motto “Community, Identity, Stability” to show that a society built on these principles cannot succeed. The species of the World State have a pre-destined life, which is stabilized by the government. When a species are created, their job, way of thinking and role are planned for them permanently. Therefore, life in this society is unstable for the citizens. Aldous Huxely’s Brave New World and Kurt Vonnegut’s “2081” both share…

Ban Brave New World The removal of Aldous Huxley’s book, Brave New World, from high school libraries is necessary. Brave New World is exposing high school students, who are not adults, to mature content. Although this content is relevant to the plot of the novel, it is too graphic and suggestive for high school students. The abuse of drugs and constant sexual content within the novel is not positive for high school students. These scenes can be interrupted differently than Huxley intends. In…

In the book Brave New World Aldous Huxley makes as close to accurate predictions as someone could for how our world will be close to 500 years in the future. In the beginning most of the Ideas are to farfetched for today’s society but as the book goes on these ideas become more real. One of Huxley’s main predictions is that drugs will be a big part of everyone’s daily life and people will take these drugs for almost anything. One of Huxley’s main predictions is coming true in today's society,…

Mrs. Hoskins ERWC P7 13 March 2015 Maintaining Happiness through Stability As we compare the characters in Brave New World, a novel by Aldous Huxley, to today’s society we find that there are differences.

Brave New World The story for Brave New World starts somewhere in Central London with a group of students getting a tour of a hatchery and conditioning centre. Through this tour we follow a director who explains to the children how life is created in these hatcheries instead of being produced by actual human beings. Whether the setting of the novel has an advantage over our world today is up for discussion. I formed my own opinion after reading the first six chapters and believe that living…

Huxley’s Brave New World. Anti-depressants and other “feel-good” drugs are becoming increasingly popular in the world. I believe that this continued increase in use, as well as lack of concern for actually treating the sick, may be leading the world to become rather brave and new. The widespread prescription of antidepressants is numbing society to the actual problems at hand, people are getting crazy. Society thinks it’s okay, though. Just pop adderal and xanax all day and the world is rainbows…

The depiction of events, personalities and situations within an individual’s envisaged society or political regime can be proved throughout a vast amount of texts within the period of war, controversial leadership and society. Brave New World is a dystopian science fiction novel that not only explores the impact of a unique type totalitarianism on the individual but also reflects the ambivalence towards our paradoxical twofold heritage of technology and primitivism through politically…

Brave New World Like death and taxes, there is no escape to color; or isolation. Isolation is pale, white, and blank because there is an absence of substance, just like with the color- white - there is an absence of pigment. In Brave New World by Aldous Huxley, two characters face pallid isolation in different ways, Bernard and John. The author exhibits it within a particular passage in chapters seven and eight when Bernard and John share their feelings of alienation from their respective…

In the Brave New World by Aldous Huxley, a fictional story is told about a utopian society. In the society, there are five caste systems and everyone in each system is considered equally important. The higher systems are taught that the lower systems matter just as much because somebody has to do the jobs that they perform. In the society, the only emotion is happiness and that is achieved by personal relationships. However, the personal relationships of the Brave New World society contrast…

In the novel Brave New World Huxley attempts to prophesize how our future society will become from where its current path was going, given the social influences and technological advances of his time. Although some of these prophecies have come true, such as a great increase in sexual freedom, the humanlike qualities that differentiate us from other species, such as science, art, and religion have not completely been forgotten like it has in the people of World State. Throughout the dystopian…
