Written by Aldous Huxley in 1931 soon after World War l, Brave New World is seen as a prophetic book that defined the coming century. Inspired by the H.G. Well’s utopian novels, Brave New World chronicled the lives of three people, Bernard, John, and Lenina. Alfred Thodey of Camberwell told the Customs Minister of the “crimes committed in thy name” because banning the book was an “unwarrantable interference.” Brave New World presents inevitable problems the world must face in order to keep a society that places trust in the people rather than in a harsh government.
Nineteen Eighty-Four and Brave New World were both written by men who had experienced, what was in their time the largest and most violent war in history. These tremendous world events revealed the truly deplorable and destructive nature of the state mixed with an inherently domineering human nature. Huxley and Orwell portray a satirical depiction of the eventual state of society as an extrapolation of the condition of the world in their own time showing similar stories of totalitarian dominance and complete control of society by world states. And while these narratives have similar dystopias the ways in which the world falls into control and that state supremacy is maintained is a stark contrast making for an interesting comparison. Huxley's image depicts a world in which the industrial revolution expanded beyond material goods to the mass production of humans themselves.
In "Brave New World," Aldous Huxley uses various literary techniques, including symbolism and imagery, to critique the dangers of technological advancements and their impact on society. Through his portrayal of a dystopian society in which technology controls and manipulates individuals, Huxley warns of how technological advances can lead to a loss of freedom, happiness, and individuality. He also critiques how society prioritizes efficiency, pleasure, and conformity over a genuine human connection and emotional depth. Huxley presents themes of control, manipulation, and societal stability that arise from the misuse of technology to create a controlled and efficient future. By employing tropes of imagery and symbolism, the novelist expresses
When reading different books, it is easy to see how one compares to today’s world. There are certain instances that make you believe that the author can predict the future. The same can be said about the book Brave New World. This book was written in 1931 by Aldous Huxley. There are many ways in which Brave New World compares to the modern day America.
There was something desperate, almost insane, about the sharp spasmodic yelps to which they now gave utterance. Their little bodies twitched and stiffened; their limbs moved jerkily as if to the tug of unseen wires.” (Huxley 21). Their society attempts to create a utopia through making a hierarchical system with the aid of psychological conditioning and technology. However, this approach harms the citizens as they are being nurtured to follow certain expectations and goals, denying them a basic right of individuality.
Through his portrayal of the complete control of the World State over all aspects of the lives of their citizens, Huxley conveys the perilous consequences of total societal stability and governmental control upon individual freedom and identity, an aspect pertaining to the human condition. The detrimental impacts of complete societal stability are conveyed through the rhyming couplet, “when the individual feels, the community reels”. Through the couplet, a robotic slogan implanted into the minds of its citizens via conditioning, Huxley emphasises the World State’s manipulation of its own people to suit society’s needs, simultaneously expressing the repression of free will and individual emotion as a result. Furthermore, through the motto, “community,
Huxley is sending a powerful and controversial message about God. He is saying that God is not necessary in their civilization because science has taken its place; he is not denying God, but instead explaining why he's obsolete. Mond explains to John that "fear of death and of what comes after death makes men turn to religion. This is partially truth because in religions like Catholicism, there is an afterlife where people will pay for their sins or will be rewarded for their good deeds. But because in the world state people are conditioned to be comfortable with death, religion is not necessary.

He lived in London, United Kingdom. He was born on May 4,1825 and he died on June 29, 1895. Huxley was a huge supporter of Darwin's theory of evolution. He helped to get everyone to accept Darwin’s theory, but he did pointed out the problems in Darwin’s theory. He also did his own research in zoology and paleontology.
Misapprehensions that caused by the lack of communication exchanges had always seemed ridiculous. Recently, the cultural misunderstanding and ethnic insulation generated between international students and American students in American education. However, with portions of the successful cases, it's effective that regardless of language difficulties, by participating and coordinating to promote understanding, it's possible to compromise and reach the cultural harmony. For the purpose of better understanding and coalescence in schools, particular activities and publicity are implemented to incite participation.
When Huxley wrote the novel Brave New World he envisioned a world 600 years in the future. Although many of the things that Huxley writes about is very farfetched, other things are relatable, in fact some of them have already occurred. For example Huxley states that in the future we will have the ability to create children in test tube, modern day science has enabled us to come very close to that very same prediction. “The complete mechanisms were inspected by eighteen identical curly auburn girls in Gamma green, packed in crates by thirty four short legged, left-handed male Delta Minuses, and loaded into the waiting trucks and lorries by sixty three blue-eyed, flaxen and freckled Epsilon Semi Morons” (p.160). This is an example from the book about how they create the children.
Truth and happiness are two things people desire, and in the novel, an impressive view of this dystopia’s two issues is described. In this society, people are created through cloning. The “World State” controls every aspect of the citizens lives to eliminate unhappiness. Happiness and truth are contradictory and incompatible, and this is another theme that is discussed in “Brave New World” (Huxley 131). In the world regulated by the government, its citizens have lost their freedom; instead, they are presented with pleasure and happiness in exchange.
Social media has a major effect on today’s society. People are being manipulated, influenced, and even brainwashed from apps and websites they use every day. Social media is used to hold social interactions, promote events or products, and keep people up to date on all kinds of news. Because social media can do so much for its users, it basically controls every aspect of their lives. In Aldous Huxley’s, “Brave New World”, social media wasn’t controlling their society, but other technologies like the Bokonovsky’s Process, the Feelies, and Soma were.
