Nursing
Nursing “Nursing is an art: and if it is to be made an art, It requires an exclusive devotion as hard a preparation, as any painterґs or sculptorґs work; for what is the having to do with dead canvas or dead marble, compared with having to do with the living body, the temple of Godґs spirit? It is one of the Fine Arts: I had almost said, the finest of Fine Arts.” Spoken by a

Nursing
My responses to A Beautiful Mind varied greatly. Initially, I thought about how intelligent the main character must be. I felt sorry for John Nash, whose feelings of loneliness, sadness and depression prevailed as he struggled to find a focus for his project and a place in the student social hierarchy. I frequently wondered what his connections to home were; without them and with lack of family support, he became socially awkward. I was

Fahrenheit 451, 1984, and Brave New World
Fahrenheit 451, 1984, and Brave New World Several conflicting frames of mind have played defining roles in shaping humanity throughout the twentieth century. Philosophical optimism of a bright future held by humanity in general was taken advantage of by the promise of a better life through sacrifice of individuality to the state. In the books Brave New World, 1984, and Fahrenheit 451 clear opposition to these subtle entrapments was voiced in similarly convincing ways. They

Brave New World
There is no denying that it is man’s innate desire to want more, to be better, and to strive for perfection. In Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World, that same desire is what drives the World State to construct a “civilized” society where happiness determines “Community, identity, stability (Huxley, 3).” Juxtaposed to a Savage Reservation, this “Brave New World” eventually reveals itself as being anything but a Utopia, because nothing is perfect.

With my analysis of both novels, I have come to the conclusion that they are not as alike as you would believe.

Imagine a world where all of your fantasies can become reality. Imagine a world without violence or hate, but just youth, beauty, and sex.

A Tale of Two Worlds: Dehumanization in Brave New World and 1984
Imagine a world where mothers, fathers, brothers and sisters are no longer a part of society. Imagine a world of lifeless shells of humans. Both Brave New World, by Aldous Huxley, and 1984, by George Orwell, portray such societies that have been degraded by the idea of ‘utopia’. In such a distraught society it’s no surprise that people will loss their humanity. For those characters that still had sanity, the impact of this world would

A Brave New World by Aldous Huxley has many of the same basic ideas as 1984 by George Orwell, but the two are more different than alike. In both books a totalitarian government is in complete control of the people, but A Brave New World shows a more positive side of this type of government than does 1984. 1984 doesn't show any good things that have come out of having this form of government, and
