Symbolism Of Rats by Adrianna Enriquez




  The symbolism of Rats
In 1984, Winston learns the meaning of Room 101 when O'Brien tortures him with rats, and Winston is terrified of rats . Rats represent depravity and fear . Rats are disgusting rodents and carry disease. They also live off of human garbage. Winston's universe is filled with humans who act like and are treated like rats. Winston and his fellow citizens become rats, trapped in Big Brother's cage. If people allow forces such as those represented by Big Brother to rule, then they will become no better than mindless, multiplying rats.
