Brave New World
The topic, 'A Social Issue' is important towards my understanding of the novel Brave New World, by Aldous Huxley as Huxley made his futuristic worls a social experiment involving genetics. This social experiment shows the values around which the future revolves and the main aim of the new world is to obtain 'community, identity, stability', which was the motto for this new society. An example of how the obtained 'community, identity, stability' was to take away the peoples' freedom. One way they did this was through the process of cloning children, and the undergoing of conditioning throughout childhood, that left the people of the Brave New World trained in many things that society found socially acceptable such as sexual games and consumerism.Throughout the novel the reader sees this new scientific experiment as a negative thing, as Huxley portrays a superficial, fake world where people take drugs such as Soma to become artificially happy rather than feeling natural feelings, a statement of freedom. Huxley was portraying this world as negative as he was trying to issue the reader with a warning to be careful of the power we unleash through science. As shown in this social experiment, the possible
I believe that it is not natural to feel happy all the time such as Lenina does. Bernard's quote, 'I's rather be myself and unhappy, rather than being artificially happy' sums up the readers reaction, as to experience true happiness, you have to have experienced true saddness to appreciate the emotions of happiness. This world is a world that obtains much sympathy as they sacrifice everything, including families and freedom, for 'community, identity, stability. The government of Brave New World took away the life purpose of the pleibians so the they are the equivalent of walkign talking dolls, with the importance to society of a labor machine. The novel is set in a time period in the future, where Henry Ford is god and there is no values in the society. The values are lost, people live off a mood enhancing drug, namedly Soma, and therefore have no real emotions, just the ones created by the drugs. Babies in this world are created through a test tube process, the Bochanovsky process, where one egg and sperm are divided into hundreds. 'Setting - 4/5The setting in the novel, Brave New World by Aldous Huxley is one of a futuristic dystopia. Sympathy - 5/5The response 'sympathy' comes to mind as the reader tends to feel pity towards this Brave New World portrayed by Aldous Huxley. Compared to the reader, who has experienced true emotioms, have goals and meaning to life, the people of the brave new world have nothing, which evokes sympathy within the reader. Each new game invented has to be more technical than any other existing game and contain more apparatus. outcomes are showing a dystopia, a negative future rather than a positive one. Without a reason for life, what is the point of living. The people of the Brave New World have no real emotion. She has no apparent reason to be in the world except to inject embryo's, which any person could do.
