Recommended: The "Brave New World" Analysis

The task presented about “Brave New World” by Aldous Huxley (1932). I choose a newspaper article because I want to inform people from other parts of the world to know more about how it was the society in England and their plans for the director to create an ideal society or a utopia. In Brave new world, people are created in fabrics and they were classified by groups: Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta or Epsilon. These groups have different characteristics and the Alpha group was considered the best than the other groups because they were smart, tall and strong people, in contrast, the Epsilon are the contrary to Alpha, dumb, ugly and short. The society in England have a lot of demand and shortcomings and they need to work a lot to have enough resources

    Jett Phillips 07.02.2017 Dearing AP Lit & Comp A.3 Aldous Huxley’s Satirical Ironic World There is no novel more synonymous with irony and satire than Aldous Huxley’s 1932 novel Brave New World. Throughout the novel, Huxley takes advantage of irony and satire to bring about his message, in an attempt to criticize those who would like to see the expansion of the state and proliferation of promiscuity, by showing those how such a world would look like, through his depiction of the “World State.” As presented in the novel, the World State’s citizens are designated by birth into genetically engineered classes, controlled throughout life through drugs and endless promiscuity, and pushing the never-ending production line forward in the satirically stated year of 632 “After Ford.” However, Huxley’s use of irony shines brightest through the names of his characters, such as Lenina Crowne, Bernard Marx, and John the Savage. The former two names are in reference to Vladimir Lenin and Karl Marx, and the latter being an ironic name based on how, essentially,

    In the article excerpt, social critic Neil Postman describes two dystopian novels: George Orwell’s 1984, and Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World. Postman compares which novel is more relevant to today’s society, and leans more towards Brave New World.

  • Comparison Of Modern Society In Brave New World

    Today’s American society follows closely, with some differences to the society in Brave New World particularly in: human life/death, art, and use of drugs/pharmaceuticals. Aldous Huxley was inspired to write Brave New World by the modern society of his time. Huxley foresaw that historical and current events leading up to the 1930’s pointed in a direction that would greatly impact modern society. The book revealed to readers that even in a perfect society where humans are grown in test tubes there is aspect of humanity that cannot be removed, a feeling that somethings is missing or anger for an injustice. These feelings are demonstrated through the point of view from two characters, Bernard Marx and Helmholtz Watson.

  • Brave New World

    937 Words  | 2 Pages

    Alduos Huxley, in his science fiction novel Brave New World written in 1932, presents a horrifying view of a possible future in which comfort and happiness replace hard work and incentive as society's priorities. Mustapha Mond and John the Savage are the symbolic characters in the book with clashing views. Taking place in a London of the future, the people of Utopia mindlessly enjoy having no individuality. In Brave New World, Huxley's distortion of religion, human relationships and psychological training are very effective and contrast sharply with the literary realism found in the Savage Reservation. Huxley uses Brave New World to send out a message to the general public warning our society not to be so bent on the happiness and comfort that comes with scientific advancements.

  • Brave New World and Nietzsche

    1373 Words  | 3 Pages

    Brave New World is a dystopia probably never quite happening as a whole concept. It’s more of a warning courtesy of Huxley rather than everything. However, the question of the essay is: “How does the dystopian concept of Brave New World ends up when compared with the relevant ideas of Nietzsche’s - are they similar, different or in opposition?” Nietzsche also wrote about the need for Übermenschen, as well as weaker underlings for retaining the stability in the society and the radical removal of the old ethics and morality. And what is also important to note – some of the Nietzsche’s philosophy (centered around the idea that the highest moral virtue is the life itself) could be more positive than the whole of Christianity, as could be seen in a certain light (an original observation made by the author of the essay) and again, in Brave New World, Mustapha Pond claims that soma is “Christianity without tears” (Huxley 235); so there are some links between Brave New World and Nietzsche. Brave New World is cited in its original, of course, but Nietzsche’s works are translated from Czech, sometimes slightly coordinated with the German original, when the need arises.

    The future is a star, shining bright and hopeful. Welcoming everyone with the promise of a better tomorrow. The world is joyous for tomorrow is a new day. However, that glimmering star can only shine for so long before it dims and the mask of hope lifts. This is exactly what happens in Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World the future is grand and everyone is happy, or so everyone has been told. Critic Dawn B. Sova explains that Brave New World “depicts an orderly society in which scientifically sophisticated genetics and pharmacology combine to produce a perfectly controlled population whose entire existence is dedicated to maintaining the stability of society”. Overall Huxley entrances the reader with a seductive world filled with dysfunction to
