For Friday, April 12
Choose a thought. Either agree with it or disagree with it. Make a four slide powerpoint presentation that proves your view with several pieces of evidence. Use events from the novel, contemporary equivalents and any other thoughts as evidence.
1. The surveillance of its constituents by the Party is necessary for its self-preservation because it affords the Party the ability to eliminate potential subversion early on. It is the most important element of the Party's tools.
2. The Party wants to control people's thoughts. Language limits thought, and thought is dependent on language. Indeed, no thought can be had without the right words with which to express it. Therefore, the Party's ambitions are attainable.
3. 1984 has many flaws. One of them is Winston Smith being the only character that can escape the effects of the Party's manipulation and control of information. Yet 1984 fails to explain his distinctive qualities as justification for his different nature.
4. Winston explores his memory in an attempt to reconnect with the past because he believes the past holds the answers to the Party's rise to power in the present. He therefore agrees with the Party's theory that to control the past is to control the future.
5. It is necessary for Oceanians to believe that Oceania is in a constant state of warfare with the other superpowers, because the presence of a common enemy prevents internal conflict.
