Freedom and enslavement by: Huy Uyen,Gary,Brandon

In 1984 the prisoners represent how the party uses the war to take control of the masses. Their faces are described as "sad" twice, "mournful" eyes and "nests" of the hair, "dirty, bearded, and exhausted". Using "nests" to describe the hair makes it ironic because birds are generally seen as the symbol of freedom.

Freedom and Enslavement Part 2 Chapter 1 By: Su Nguyen & Reem B (7th)

Freedom and enslavement is a recurring theme in the novel "1984". Winston is very cautious about how the dangerous it is to be caught doing something wrong. He is concerned that The Thought Police will find out that he's falling in love with Julia . Winston doesn't like the society he lives in. He wants to make his own choices , be himself, and  does not want to hide his feeling. He wants to live in a society where he can freely do what he wants to and he wants to show his feeling to Julia without getting into trouble.

Personal Rebellion, Part 2 Chapter 1.

"For some reason the telescreen  in the living room was in an unusual position. Instead of being placed, as was normal, in the end wall, where it could command the whole room, it was in the longer wall, opposite the window. To one side of it there was a shallow alcove in which Winston was now sitting, and which, when the flats were built, had probably been intended to hold bookshelves. By sitting in the alcove, and keeping well back, Winston was able to remain outside the range of the telescreen, so far as sight went. He could be heard, of course, but so long as he stayed in his present position he could not be seen. It was partly the unusual geography of the room that had suggested to him the thing that he was now about to do. (1.1.12)"

Winston starts a journal of rebellious thoughts as a first step towards his eventual fate at the Ministry of Love.

                                                Personal Rebellion 1984

                      Winston's diary is his way of rebellion. The acts of buying and writing
                      in the diary are thoughtcrime, punishable by death if discovered. A constricted environment
                 the suppression from most human instincts such as love, luxury, intellectually & critical thinking, I believe, changes everything. The restriction form freedom obscures the essential need to survive. I think that this would be compromised because Winston was never really exposed to these sorts of feelings.
Winston's thoughts constantly wander towaards some of the only memories of his mother. he speaks about his mother compassion that he rejected and abused. She loved him unconditionally, and he used her.

How does technology evoke fear in Winston and Julia? Khoi Pham, Alberto Luna, Jordan Carranza

The Party evokes fear through technology by placing telescreens and microphones all across Oceania. Big Brother and The Thought police were always lurking around to find those not falling in line with the law, This advanced technology is difficult for Winston and Julia  to maneuver around. The technology Oceania uses brainwashes everyone to believe what is not true and if you go against it, there is a fear of being vaporized.  Winston and Julia exchange notes but they're afraid of getting caught by the thought police. BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU!

Theme of Physical Control

By: Eddie Garcia, Lexus Rodriguez, Duyen Le

In the George Orwell 1984, Winston has a party that constantly watches for any sign of disloyalty. As Winston observes, even a tiny facial twitch can lead to an arrest. He basically controls the party.

A Freedom and Enslavement/Free Will By Joseph Khong and Lynna Nguyen

A Freedom and Enslavement/Free Will

In Orwell's 1984 the set is in Oceania, a totalitarian state that is ruled by a god-like leader name Big Brother who completely controls the citizens down to their very own thoughts. Anyone who thinks rebellious thoughts are turned in by spies or Big Brother, who monitors them through highly sensitive telescreens. People are considered guilty of Facecrime if someone does not have the proper facial expression, so all facial expression are carefully guarded. It is also possible to commit thoughtcrime by being overheard when talking in their sleep, which Winston Smith is scared that he will do; it happened to his neighbor Tom Parsons. Freedom only exist in the proletarian ghetto, where crime and hunger is common. Winstons feels like he can't live in the ghetto, even though his life is almost as horrid as the ghetto dwellers.

The punishment for minor crimes are severe, yet people still break the law. The Party know that people naturally want to have sex, form of love bonding, and think for themselves instead of accepting unquestionably whatever the totalitarian government tells them. As long as people choose to exercise the freedom of free will, the Party must be very attentive against crime and make their punishment severe in order to keep in control.

Julia is a fictional character in George Orwell's dystopian novel Nineteen Eighty-Four. Her last name is never given in the novel but she is called Dixon in the 1954 BBC TV Production

Julia was born in 1958.5 in Oceania, the super-state combining North America, South America, Southern Africa, Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom (renamed Airstrip One). Her knowledge of events before the revolution is inaccurate as her grandfather, the only close source to her with that knowledge, disappeared when she was eight. Julia integrated herself into the daily life of Oceania early, becoming an especially zealous propagandist for the Junior Anti-Sex League, the Two Minutes Hate and Community Centre. In truth, she despises the Party and wants to join the Brotherhood, an outlawed organisation supposedly founded by Emmanuel Goldstein. She had her first affair with a Party member at the age of sixteen.

Character Analysis of Winston Smith

Winston Smith is the protagonist of the Novel, and the person who's eyes we see the world of 1984 through. He is a good citizen of Oceania but at the beginning of the novel, he starts to think more openly than the government would want. Winston is different than most in the totalitarian society because he is an actual individual and has extreme self-determination. Winston supports democracy over totalitarianism and dictatorship, and has many values of a civilized society.

Syme- An intelligent, outgoing man who works with Winston at the Ministry of Truth. Syme specializes in language. As the novel opens, he is working on an new edition of the newspeak dictionary.Winston believes syme is too intelligent to stay in the party favor.

Julia

Julia is a 26 year old,and she's a free spirited rebel who's relationship is the backbone of the story in 1984. She works in the fiction department in Oceania's ministry of truth and is the lover to Winston Smith. Unlike her lover Winston, Julia is practical in her mindset, worried about the here and now and opposed to worrying about her future. She's somewhat rebellious, but in a passive-aggressive sort of way. This rebellion is partly what makes her so compelling to Winston, but also what makes her so dangerous, since their relationship would be illegal due to its representation of free will in Oceania's Totalitarian society.
