17 Questions Do you believe this quote to be true?

18 Questions 1984 is full of images and ideas that do not directly affect the plot, nevertheless attain thematic importance. What are some of these symbols and motifs, and how does Orwell use them? - The paperweight - Shows Winston s attempts to escape or undermine the oppressive rule of the party.

19 Questions In his journal, Winston writes that the hope of the rebellion lies in the proles. Why does Winston have major blind faith in a group he s not apart of? Do the proles have any characteristics that will help rebel against Big Brother?

20 Until they become conscious they will never rebel, and until after they have rebelled they cannot become conscious, (Orwell 70).

21 Personal Reaction: Reganne When reading this quote I automatically thought back to when I read Fahrenheit 451 freshman year. I think about what Bradbury and Orwell s thought processes must have been while creating these societies and writing these novels. How did they view their society? Do their predictions of the future apply to our current society?

Personal Reaction: Mady When looking at this quote the first thing that struck my mind was why would a person revolt against their government? What means could be so terrible to cause this?

22 Personal Reaction: Mady When looking at this quote the first thing that struck my mind was why would a person revolt against their government? What means could be so terrible to cause this? Then I remembered who our president elect was and the decisions he was making and it all made sense. The immigration ban, defunding planned parenthood. It makes sense why so many people are protesting. Why so many people don t agree with the president's choices.

23 Personal Reaction: Tucker Orwell s quotes from 1984 made me think back to dystopian novels I read before this book. Obviously, 1984 was written before any modern literature I ve read, but it s easy to compare ideas in books like The Hunger Games and Divergent to Katniss and Tris are apart of the machine before destroying it. Though the girls certainly had more bravery and cunning attributes than Winston, all the characters are able to spark the idea of a rebellion.
