"Nineteen Eighty Four" - Fictional World In English this semester we have studied three different texts. All three texts were based on original, fictional worlds. The fictional world which stood out above the rest and really amazed me would have to be 'Nineteen Eighty-Four'. 'Nineteen Eighty-Four' was the most realistic out of the three. While reading the novel you really get into the fictional world and think like the main character Winston Smith. Three aspects of the text which made this world so interesting to study were The Inner Party, Big Brother, and the Thought Police. Each of these interesting aspects in Nineteen Eighty Four play a great part in the novel itself and the way the fictional world works. The Inner Party played a huge role in creating the fascinating world in 'Nineteen Eighty Four'. The Inner Party was in charge of Airstrip1 and wanted to be superior over everyone. They wanted the party to be the people's first loyalty over anything else. They didn't allow marriage or even sex
Newspeak will also cut out words that have no use such as excellent or superb which are all different meanings of the word good, or double plus good instead of having all different words meaning the same thing. Big Brother is everywhere in every house (except proles), every street, wall, and he is always shouting out "BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU" the text which backs this up is when Winston describes that 'On each landing, opposite the lift shaft the poster with enormous face gazed from the wall. The Party had control over everything even peoples minds. This was proved when O ' Brien held up four fingers and said to Winston "how many fingers am I holding up?" Winston replied "Five". Newspeak is the official language of Oceania. Big Brother is so important to the world in the novel because the figure stops thought crime, gives the people someone to look up to and someone to love, lets the Party tell the people anything they want and the people will believe it, such as propaganda. for this was an act of loyalty between two people and not to the party. Big Brother is a figure, which the Party has created to frighten people and give them more power. An example of this is when Winston and Julia were caught having a sexual relationship and were taken away by the Thought Police. Syme said to Winston "were cutting the language down to the bone". It was one of those pictures, which are so conceived that the eyes follow you about when you move'. An example is when the party say 'Oceania is at war with Eurasia, Oceania has always been at war with Eurasia'. The Party can do anything they like and when someone questions them they can just say there under orders from Big Brother. It is supposed to take over common English in the year 2050.
