The Struggle in 1984 (1984)In a world controlled by a higher power, living in constant fear of doing or saying something wrong, thoughts can be incriminating. Worse yet, any impure thought can make you disappear. Being constantly monitored and observed without knowing it. A TV screen monitoring every facial expression and recording any body language and abnormal movements wherever you go. Even at home, there is no escape. You can't escape or turn off the power to the Telescreen and "Big Brother". This novel tells the story of one man's struggle against a totalitarian government that controls the ideas and thoughts of its citizens. In George Orwell's 1984 novel, the government used advanced mind-reading techniques to discover the thoughts of the people and punish those who show signs of rebellion. against the government. The novel is supposed to be a prophetic story, but it erred somewhat in predicting the date this government would take power. Although some themes described in the book are now realities, others will not happen for some time and that is why this novel continues to shake us today. Perhaps Orwell's purpose in writing 1984 was to express his feelings about how governments would come to control anything and everything they wished to do. It is also possible that he wanted to explain how mind control and torture techniques could be used to force an individual or an entire nation to do what the government wanted. This story shows the danger of a world in which the government has too much control. The novel shows how the government controls its people, eliminating their individuality and the essence of everything that makes a human being a human being. "And if everyone else accepted the lie imposed by the Party - if all the documents told the same story - then the lie would pass into history and become truth. "Who controls the past", said the Party slogan, "controls the future: whoever controls the present controls the past." (Page 37) Although this society is efficient, it does not mean much since the people cannot enjoy it and therefore have no rights. . This quote emphasizes that if you don't remember anything from the past, you will be easily controlled by the government and you will no longer have any concrete evidence. In this novel, Orwell used the image of a man who stood in. a shadow that covered his face.
