Nineteen Eighty-Four

To rewrite poems that dont meet the party's ideology!

The three were all once members of the Inner-Party and , having 'fallen from grace' , were compelled to make false confessions about themselves and were removed from history and , now , are only memories to Winston .

The idea of compassion and love appears in 1984 by George Orwell appears when Winston Smith declares love for his Big Brother.

George Orwell was a socialist. He definitely opposed communism, you can tell by what happened to the communist settlement in "Animal Farm".

For Winston, his greatest fear should be to lose his identity and self-consciousness. His reason for rebelling against the party is to find his true identity, which explains the reason he's so keen in discovering history (for eg. the nursery rhyme and the photograph in the newspaper). It is through history and memory that he is able to find his true identity and self.

He is also afraid of rats, and they are used as a method of torture on him.

Winston becomes absolutely terrified once he heard that there was a rat in the room, and made it worse as he found out that there are many rats throughout the building. His fear of rats foreshadows the upcoming events particularly in room 101

The Ministry of Truth (minitrue in Newspeak) was responsible for news, entertainnment, education, and fine arts.

There are probably telescreens there.

Syme was Winston Smith's fellow co-worker at the Ministry of Truth .

Published in 2013, Big Brother: A Novel, was written by Lionel Shriver. The term 'big brother' is also popularly associated with the novel, 1984, written by George Orwell.

Aaronson was one of the former Inner Party members who had been denounced and no longer a member of the ruling elite .

depressing and hopeless

Both of course. It is arguable that he is more miserable and oppressed than the proletariat. He does, after all, talk about how relatively carefree their lives are and how they are more blissful due to their ignorance. It is slightly less arguable that he is an outcast. While neither Winston or the reader does not hear/read about other people who are strongly dissatisfied with BB and his regime, this is not surprising as the censored media will rarely report on such things. Therefore, while Winston Smith symbolizes both, he is a much better symbol of the oppressed than of the outcast.

he is oppressed

he is personally an outcast in that he feels like he dosnt belong and is the only one who hates the party and despises big brother

he isn't publically an outcast where people openly reject him as a freak however

They succeed several times. The places they succeed are the woodland like area that Julia introduces Winston to the first time they meet together alone, the bell tower, and the room in Mr. Charrington's antiques shop.

The Ministry of Truth says it "rectifies" things, which means to fix or make correct, so what they do is not considered forgery because they are "fixing" what they say to have been mistakes

In both Nineteen Eighty-Four and real-life, the proles are controlled through a constant stream of meaningless entertainment, keeping them distracted enough to prevent them from becoming politically-minded. If this were to happen, the proletariat population would wish to revolt, and it would have the numbers to defeat the government.

However, keep in mind that this is to a much smaller extent in the real world, and the media is normally used by parties to gain public support.

The chess relates to the news report which is broadcasted while Winston plays. In essence, it reveals Winston to be on the side of Oceania.

He is simply terrified of rats.

Personally, I find his actions neither admirable or foolish. He knew he would inevitably be caught, and so even if he wasn't using love as a resistance and joining The Brotherhood, he would of been caught by talking in his sleep, or by a certain facial expression. If he had taken no action at all, he would have been arrested for thoughtcrime. At least he uses the time he has before his capture to experience some things he would normally be deprived of.

Winston dreamt of his mother on a shinking ship. He felt as if it was his own fault for her dissappearance.

The main antagonist of George Orwell's 1984 is O'Brien, a highly-ranked Party member that brainwashes Winston, the protagonist, into completely surrendering to the customs, standards, and power of the Party. However, the Party in general, especially their leader Big Brother, could also be viewed as antagonists, since they are always against what Winston truly believes.

Steamers are the Prole slang for 'Rocket Bombs', commonly known as missiles.

A good place to look at for an example of Orwell setting the scene is the first sentence, which bears much significance:

"It was a cold, bright day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen."

Firstly, it paints the image of Oceania as being very dull and lifeless. Secondly, the time description relates to military time, which demonstrates the militaristic, totalitarian society of Oceania.

The two , having been broken by Obrien's tortures , no longer have the ardor/feelings towards each other - they are only shells of their former selves .

Family values are eradicated and parents may be afraid of their children. Since young, the party trains the children to spy on their parents and to look out for any unorthodox behaviour. Hence children may be a tool for the party to monitor and spy on the people.
