“1984”
The quote I chose was a slogan of
one of the Partys. To me it kind of means the way they live, how their live is,
the misery and how things have changed from the past. The kind of live they
have and living basically, how things are the opposite that what it use to be.
The quote says how war is considered peace but actually war is the opposite of
peace that makes things worse. We all know that when there is a war things get
ugly and it does not turn into peace sometimes. War also is something that is
negative that we do not want war to happen. Basically its how the world has
changed negatively. “War is Peace, Freedom is Slavery, Ignorance is Strength,”
(Orwell 87). I mean really slavery is not freedom at all. Slavery is being a prisoner,
being unhappy, controlled, and miserable, doing things you do not want to. This
passage has a negative meaning and opposite. The passage is talking about how
the people or comrades in Oceania live. They
are being controlled and live in war and like slaves controlled they don’t have
freedom so to them slavery is like freedom.
Really great quote you picked. You did a great job, By reading this i can understand more the passage. Keep it up!!
ReplyDeleteVery good stuff here! It is very ironic that they use such a silly slogan like that. It is the complete opposite of what those terms mean! They live in a world where there is a dictator. Loved the passage you chose, keep up the good work!
