The Giver

Two stories that are alike Anthem Ayn Rand and Giver Lois Lowry are alike and different in many ways. Anthem is about a boy named Equality 7-2521 and how his life is controlled, but that does not stop him from doing the things he wants to achieve. Giver is about a boy named Jonas becoming the next receiver he is controlled by his parents, and the Giver. Jonas realizes that through his dreams the giver is giving him, that life should be like those loving, and caring. Both of these stories are…

In the book, The Giver, language is often used as a tool for social control. For example the terms release, Ceremony of the Loss, and comfort object have deeper meanings to them than what is displayed to the people community. These terms are used to make pain, grief, suffering and even comfort go away, or at least dull their emotions. The people of the community when kids start to have Stirrings, also known as feelings as a result of puberty. They want everyone to be and feel the same, so that…

Kapusi 801 The Giver The famous author of the book “The Giver” once said that “The worst part of holding the memories is not the pain. It’s the loneliness of it. Memories need to be shared.” In “The Giver” Jonas becomes assigned to being the new receiver, which is the highest honored and most important job in the community. The receiver has the…

The Giver has different feelings for Jonas than Mother and Father’s feelings for Jonas. Mother and Father’s feelings for Jonas are structured and formal. Unlike, The Giver and Jonas’s feelings are emotional, warm, and open. Mother and Father had structured feelings for Jonas because they only knew sameness. Therefore, they followed instructions on taking pills, so they never felt a strong emotion before. The feelings from The Giver and Jonas are different. The Giver can feel stronger emotions…

Anthem or The Giver Anthem and The Giver have dystopian themes. In both there's one person who breaks the laws. I think that, that attracts the people who watch or read the book or movie. The Giver is about a boy who receives memories that later end up helping him. Anthem is about a man who finds his own place and he ends up falling for a girl and learns freedom for the first time to be actually free. In these two stories Anthem by Ayn Rand and The Giver by Lois Lowry have the same theme in the…

story The Gift and the Giver and A rich man’s son, a lot of giving happened in the stories.Sometimes you can't expect something back so quick like one of your friends/parents had an present for you. You always have to be patient for things in life and appreciate what you have. In the story The Gift and the Giver, the giver gave presents from the heart not to just randomly give out presents like it's Christmas. The king wanted to show love to the Giver so he made the Giver wait where he was…

Unwind by Neal Shusterman and The Giver by Lois Lowry. There are also a few similarities, such as the fact that they share themes. Some of those themes include government control and escape. Let’s have a look at some of these differences and similarities. When compare releasing and unwinding with each other, you will see that they are very actually different. For example, in Unwind, the Unwind is still technically alive, but the Released are simply killed. In The Giver, the people of the…

share some similarities to The Givers society, we have many differences. Like our rules, for example in the giver you are assigned a job at the age of 12 or (assignment). Where our world we get to pick what age we want to get a job. that's just one example though, as there are many other differences. In our world we can can chose and to some extend do whatever we want. We can chose who we will marry, how many kids we want and what jobs we will have. In the givers society however, its…

In the dystopian novel, The Giver by Lois Lowry, the theme of oppression leading to freedom is illustrated in Lowry’s use of the literary elements of allusion, foreshadowing, and characterization. The society that Lowry creates is a perfect world without crime, war, or poverty. Every person has a specific role and they are not allowed to make any choices on their own. One person, The Giver, is responsible for holding all the memories of all the pain and pressures of life. Now Jonas has been…

choice, remember? That's right, you can not remember, not with the government anyway. Sameness seemed so good when you don't know beyond. But what's knowing beyond? What is beyond?This is what it would be like if you lived in The Giver society. Comparing and contrasting The Giver society to our society proves that our society is better. Can you even imagine? All the feelings that you have every day, just gone. Take this for an example. Your best friend just got into a car crash, you have known…
