1,551 wordsSexuality and the Search For Truth in Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four The question of the existence of human nature has been a popular topic in modern literary works.

The phrase "the place where there is no darkness" works as a symbol of hope throughout the novel, as Winston recalls the dream in which O'Brien tells him about the place and says they will meet there one day.

Mind control is more common than many people
realize. A prime example is television. Most

television shows influence them, but of course

adds, magazines, and billboards. It is all
propaganda. It is manipulating people into doing

Harrison Bergeron vs. 1984 Harrison Bergeron and
1984 were both based on a similar concept. This
concept is creating peace by limiting and
controlling the population. In George Orwell s
1984, it was done through brainwashing and
doublethink. In Kurt Vonnegut s Harrison Bergeron,
it was done by limiting everyones abilities until
everyone is equal in all ways. Each author used
class systems, nature, and society to portray
their negative utopia. Class systems played a more
important role in 1984, t... Free research essays on topics related to: human nature, men and women, harrison bergeron, ministry of love, thought crime
