Brave New World
(This is a rough draft, so there are many errors in the writing.) Life compared to Brave New World and the present world are slightly different, but they both have many similarities.

Brave New World V 1984
Our society is, in many ways, far from the totalitarianism of George Orwell’s 1984, and yet it is surprisingly close to the brainwashed civilization of Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World which paints a vivid picture of indulgence, promiscuity, and an utter lack of individuality. The world of Brave New World is mindless and seeped so deeply in pleasure that the people, rather than being oppressed as in 1984, lack any incentive to change, and,

Brave New World
I wrote this paper in my english class after reading 'A Brave New World': On the very last page of Aldous Huxley’s book, A Brave New World, he describes John as swinging slowly in circles after hanging himself (Huxley 259). It’s believed that Huxley’s main point of this ending to his story was to tell his readers that after all John’s effort of trying to change the brave new world, it was profoundly hopeless and

Alfred Huxley’s Ability to Predict Society Through a Brave New World
When Aldous Huxley wrote Brave New World he envisioned many aspects of society that would change in the next six hundred years. Although in his time some of the new trends that he mentioned might have seemed absurd and morally wrong, I do not believe he was far from the truth. In my opinion, certain aspects in society such as human sexuality and entertainment have changed towards Huxley’s perspective. First, I think that Huxley

Pope John Paul II Leadership for a Modern World, and Advocate for Social Justice
We speak of a culture war. John Paul II fought a cultural war against the communist and won. Indeed, countless images of this momentous victory filled the screens of televisions around the globe last month.

Pardon the hyperbole, but I wonder if we can't trace a goodly portion of the decline of Western culture in just the drop-off from Walt Disney's Pinocchio to Steven Spielberg's A.

Brave New World and 1984 As I read Brave New World and 1984, I noticed how some of Aldous Huxley and George Orwell’s prophecies are becoming true.

In Brave New World, science allows babies to be artificially produced in a laboratory. Nowadays, parents who cannot conceive children are also
