1984 Quiz
In the book 1984, the government is divided into four Ministries which are ironic if you really think about it.The Ministry of Truth where Winston is currently working in, concerns itself with news , entertainment, and education.Winston's job is to rectify the original piece by making them agree with he later ones. The original piece is thrown into the memory hole or it just simply disappears so whatever is told to the people or person receiving it is not the original piece. The Ministry of Peace focuses on war which is ironic because instead of it focusing on something positive it's doing the opposite. The Ministry of Plenty was responsible for economics affairs which is not accurate because instead of being fair with the money and doing something good with it the consumption of goods are running out."The Ministry of Love was the really frightening one."(Winston 8) This Ministry deals with infliction of misery, fear, suffering and torture. At first you might think these Ministries actually mean what they're called but they might focus on something totally different.
