KASEY QUOTE 2

Part 2 Chapter 3

He felt her shoulders give a wriggle of dissent. She always contradicted him when he said anything of this kind. She would not accept it as a law of nature that the individual is always defeated. In a way she realized that she herself was doomed, that sooner or later the Thought Police would catch her and hurt her, but with another part of her mind she believed that it was somehow possible to construct a secret world in which you could live as you chose. All you needed was luck and cunning and boldness. She did not understand that there was no such thing as happiness, that the only victory lay in the far future, long after you were dead, that from the moment of declaring war on the Party it was better to think of yourself as a corpse.

‘We are the dead,’ he said. ‘We’re not dead yet,’ said Julia prosaically. ‘Not physically. Six months, a year—five years, conceivably. I am afraid of death. You are young, so presumably you’re more afraid of it than I am. Obviously we shall put it off as long as we can. But it makes very little difference. So long as human beings stay human, death and life are the same thing.’

The Veil: The subject of this passage is about, Winston’s experience with his ex-wife and how toxic the relationship was.

Types of Satire: The tones of this passage are, fearful and uncertain. After experiencing an unsuccessful marriage, Winston is fearful for what’s to come with Julia and their relationship. Winston’s ex was uncertain about a lot of things in her relationship, but that just left Winston uncertain for his future relationships.

Tools of Satire: The tool of satire that is used is paradox. Paradox a seemingly absurd or self-contradictory statement or proposition that when investigated or explained may prove to be well founded or true. For example Julia is trying to explain to WInston how dramatic he’s being when he said, “We are dead.” Julia responded with “We’re not dead yet,’ ‘Not physically. Six months, a year—five years, conceivably.”

The Target: The target of the text is that Winston is afraid of being in a relationship with Julia because he’s scared that it will turn out like his failed marriage.

KASEY QUOTE 1

Part 2 Chapter 2

His heart leapt. Scores of times she had done it: he wished it had been hundreds—thousands. Anything that hinted at corruption always filled him with a wild hope. Who knew, perhaps the Party was rotten under the surface, its cult of strenuousness and self-denial simply a sham concealing iniquity. If he could have infected the whole lot of them with leprosy or syphilis, how gladly he would have done so! Anything to rot, to weaken, to undermine! He pulled her down so that they were kneeling face to face. ‘Listen. The more men you’ve had, the more I love you. Do you understand that?’ ‘Yes, perfectly.’ ‘I hate purity, I hate goodness! I don’t want any virtue to exist anywhere. I want everyone to be corrupt to the bones.’ ‘Well then, I ought to suit you, dear. I’m corrupt to the bones.’ ‘You like doing this? I don’t mean simply me: I mean the thing in itself?’ ‘I adore it.’

The Veil: The subject of this passage is, about how Winston and Julia making love in the woods. The sexual encounter is nearly identical to what Winston dreamed of and he’s happy that Julia has tore off her Junior Anti-Sex League sash.

Type of Satire: The tones of this passage are affectionate and passionate. Winston is very affectionate towards Julia and his heart just leapt towards her especially after having hope that the Party was rotten under the surface. In addition, Winston is very passionate about hating purity and not wanting any virtue to exist anywhere.

Tools of Satire: The tool of satire used is reversal. Reversal was revealed when the Junior Anti-Sex League failed to prove themselves. For example, Julia claimed to be anti-sex, but failed to do so when making love with Winston. After the exhilarating vulnerable moment, Winston asked Julia if she had done it before and she responded with “scores of times.” Winston was thrilled to hear that news.

The Target: The target of this passage is Winston is thrilled that Julia has “scores of times had done it” because “the more men she’s been with, the more he loves her” because that means many people in the league are committing crimes.

Joey Quote 1

Part 2 Ch 1

Nevertheless it had been very difficult not to betray a momentary surprise, for in the two or three seconds while he was helping her up the girl had slipped something into his hand. There was no question that she had done it intentionally. It was something small and flat. As he passed through the lavatory door he transferred it to his pocket and felt it with the tips of his fingers. It was a scrap of paper folded into a square.

While he stood at the urinal he managed, with a little more fingering, to get it unfolded. Obviously there must be a message of some kind written on it. For a moment he was tempted to take it into one of the water-closets and read it at once. But that would be shocking folly, as he well knew. There was no place where you could be more certain that the telescreens were watched continuously.

He went back to his cubicle, sat down, threw the fragment of paper casually among the other papers on the desk, put on his spectacles and hitched the speakwrite towards him. 'five minutes,' he told himself, 'five minutes at the very least!' His heart bumped in his breast with frightening loudness. Fortunately the piece of work he was engaged on was mere routine, the rectification of a long list of figures, not needing close attention.

Whatever was written on the paper, it must have some kind of political meaning. So far as he could see there were two possibilities. One, much the more likely, was that the girl was an agent of the Thought Police, just as he had feared. He did not know why the Thought Police should choose to deliver their messages in such a fashion, but perhaps they had their reasons. The thing that was written on the paper might be a threat, a summons, an order to commit suicide, a trap of some description. But there was another, wilder possibility that kept raising its head, though he tried vainly to suppress it. This was, that the message did not come from the Thought Police at all, but from some kind of underground organization. Perhaps the Brotherhood existed after all! Perhaps the girl was part of it! No doubt the idea was absurd, but it had sprung into his mind in the very instant of feeling the scrap of paper in his hand. It was not till a couple of minutes later that the other, more probable explanation had occurred to him. And even now, though his intellect told him that the message probably meant death -- still, that was not what he believed, and the unreasonable hope persisted, and his heart banged, and it was with difficulty that he kept his voice from trembling as he murmured his figures into the speakwrite.

The Veil: Winston helped a girl off the ground, and as he was walking back to work he felt a piece of paper that the girl had slipped into his pocket. Winston is worried that his thoughts and him writing DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER, had gotten to him and the thought police had gotten to him. He also wondered if the girl he has seen was apart of the thought police, and that she had written the note.

Type of Satire: The tones shown in this passage are nervous and frightened. Winston is very nervous with the note that he found on his desk. For example, He did not know why the Thought Police should choose to deliver their messages in such a fashion, but perhaps they had their reasons. The thing that was written on the paper might be a threat, a summons, an order to commit suicide, a trap of some description. But there was another, wilder possibility that kept raising its head, though he tried vainly to suppress it. This was, that the message did not come from the Thought Police at all, but from some kind of underground organization. Perhaps the Brotherhood existed after all! Perhaps the girl was part of it! No doubt the idea was absurd, but it had sprung into his mind in the very instant of feeling the scrap of paper in his hand.” Winston’s mind is racing, and he has no idea what to think or what is going to happen to him. The racing of the mind is something that happens when you are nervous.  For example, “ 'five minutes,' he told himself, 'five minutes at the very least!' His heart bumped in his breast with frightening loudness. Fortunately the piece of work he was engaged on was mere routine, the rectification of a long list of figures, not needing close attention."Winston’s heart was pounding because he was frightened, what was going to happen to him because he assumed that the note was from the Thought Police. He had maybe thought about being vaporized, by the Thought Police.

Tools of Satire: The tool of satire that is used in this passage is incongruity. The definition of incongruous is, not in harmony or keeping with the surroundings or other aspects of something, or out of place. The note that is mentioned in this passage is out of place with its surroundings. Winston is worried about the note, which makes his thoughts not in harmony of his usual ones, or even the people around him. For example, “Nevertheless it had been very difficult not to betray a momentary surprise, for in the two or three seconds while he was helping her up the girl had slipped something into his hand. There was no question that she had done it intentionally. It was something small and flat. As he passed through the lavatory door he transferred it to his pocket and felt it with the tips of his fingers. It was a scrap of paper folded into a square.” Winston is confused because he does not know how the note had gotten into his pocket. The note is out of place, and does not belong with Winston or his normal routine.

The Target: To relate this to the real world, it would be similar to Mccarthyism. This is similar because of the paranoia. Winston was paranoid with this girl and the note. Joe McCarthy was paranoid that communist were coming to the United States and selling U.S secrets. Joe and Winston become super paranoid about communists for Joe and the Thought Police for Winston, both are worried about this affecting them in a negative way.

Joey Quote 2

Part 2 Chapter 3

She had had her first love-affair when she was sixteen, with a Party member of sixty who later committed suicide to avoid arrest. 'And a good job too,' said Julia, 'otherwise they'd have had my name out of him when he confessed.' Since then there had been various others. Life as she saw it was quite simple. You wanted a good time; 'they', meaning the Party, wanted to stop you having it; you broke the rules as best you could. She seemed to think it just as natural that 'they' should want to rob you of your pleasures as that you should want to avoid being caught. She hated the Party, and said so in the crudest words, but she made no general criticism of it. Except where it touched upon her own life she had no interest in Party doctrine. He noticed that she never used Newspeak words except the ones that had passed into everyday use. She had never heard of the Brotherhood, and refused to believe in its existence. Any kind of organized revolt against the Party, which was bound to be a failure, struck her as stupid. The clever thing was to break the rules and stay alive all the same. He wondered vaguely how many others like her there might be in the younger generation people who had grown up in the world of the Revolution, knowing nothing else, accepting the Party as something unalterable, like the sky, not rebelling against its authority but simply evading it, as a rabbit dodges a dog.

They did not discuss the possibility of getting married. It was too remote to be worth thinking about. No imaginable committee would ever sanction such a marriage even if Katharine, Winston's wife, could somehow have been got rid of. It was hopeless even as a daydream.

The Veil: The subject of this passage is, about how the girl that was following Winston, was explaining what she does and how the party works. They want to stop you, the people against the party think you are a joke, and you never get caught.

Type of Satire--The tone of this passage are, reflective and unconcerned. The girl that Winston has noticed following him, Julia, is reflecting about what she has done to break the law and not get caught by the Thought Police. For example, “She had had her first love-affair when she was sixteen, with a Party member of sixty who later committed suicide to avoid arrest. 'And a good job too,' said Julia, 'otherwise they'd have had my name out of him when he confessed.' Since then there had been various others.” Julia is reflecting about what she did with a Party member. She has not been caught yet, and knows she really can not get caught. She is also unconcerned with the thoughts of others. For example, “ Any kind of organized revolt against the Party, which was bound to be a failure, struck her as stupid. The clever thing was to break the rules and stay alive all the same. He wondered vaguely how many others like her there might be in the younger generation people”. Julia is unconcerned with what other people think of her, and how they view what she is doing. She is doing the same thing they are trying to do, and she is actually successful at it.

Tools of Satire: The tool of satire used in this passage is parody. The definition of parody is, an imitation of the style of a particular writer, artist, or genre with deliberate exaggeration for comic effect. Another definition of parody is, an imitation or a version of something that falls far short of the real thing; a travesty. Those who are against Big Brother are a parody of Julia.  For example, “She had never heard of the Brotherhood, and refused to believe in its existence. Any kind of organized revolt against the Party, which was bound to be a failure, struck her as stupid. The clever thing was to break the rules and stay alive all the same.” The group of people who are against the party are parody of Julia because they fall short of their goal. Yet they make fun of Julia for doing what she wants, and when she wants it. The people who are trying to revolt against Big Brother are a parody of Julia.1

The Target: To relate this to the real world, it would be objectify women and their actions. Julia is seen as stupid for her actions even though she is doing what the people want to do but do not have the guts to do. She is being oppressed by the men in the groups and she should be seen as even with them or even higher because she is actually taking action.

Syme had vanished. A morning came, and he was missing from work: a few thoughtless people commented on his absence. On the next day nobody mentioned him. On the third day Winston went into the vestibule of the Records Department to look at the notice-board. One of the notices carried a printed list of the members of the Chess Committee, of whom Syme had been one. It looked almost exactly as it had looked before—nothing had been crossed out—but it was one name shorter. It was enough. Syme had ceased to exist: he had never existed.

The Veil: This passage is about how Winston discovers that Syme had disappeared, and “ceased to exist”.

Type of Satire-- The tones of this passage are mysterious and confusion. When Winston notices that Syme has disappeared, he notices how mysterious it is that Syme had just vanished overnight. The whole situation is ominous because Syme had disappeared without a trace of ever existing.

Tools of Satire: The tool of satire used in this passage is reversal. Reversal is shown in the passage when it is revealed that Syme has disappeared out of nowhere. The fact that Syme ceases to exist is thrown into the book kind of out of nowhere and changes the course of the book.

The Target: The target of the passage is the fact that in this Trump-era, some people who speak out against his beliefs will “disappear” from the real world.

Winston did not get up for a few minutes more. The room was darkening. He turned over towards the light and lay gazing into the glass paperweight. The inexhaustibly interesting thing was not the fragment of coral but the interior of the glass itself. There was such a depth of it, and yet it was almost as transparent as air. It was as though the surface of the glass had been the arch of the sky, enclosing a tiny world with its atmosphere complete. He had the feeling that he could get inside it, and that in fact he was inside it, along with the mahogany bed and the gateleg table, and the clock and the steel engraving and the paperweight itself. The paperweight was the room he was in, and the coral was Julia’s life and his own, fixed in a sort of eternity at the heart of the crystal.

The Veil: The subject of this passage is that Winston is looking at the coral paperweight and noticing how complex the paperweight is and how it can represent his life and the different parts of his life.

Type of Satire-- The tones of this passage are interested and reflective. Winston is looking at the paperweight and is interested in the inside of the coral paperweight. He is noticing how cool and complex it is. He notices how it ties into his own life and peers. He is reflective on how the paperweight can represent his life, along with Julia’s life. He uses the paperweight to represent the room he was in and the outside coral to represent his and Julia’s life.

Tools of Satire: In this passage the tool of satire used is connotation. Connotation is used to describe the feeling or tone given to a piece of work. The definition of connotation is a feeling or idea that is suggested by a particular word. They give us the emotional connection with words. The connotation of this passage is a whimsical or wonderment. Winston is looking into the glass and seeing how complex the paperweight is, and how much of his life it represents.

The Target: The target of this passage is how an artifact can hold so much for someone that connects to it. Winston feels so connected to the paperweight and sees his whole life inside it, showing that he is truly connected to it.

The Veil- Julia does not abide by the rules of the party. If anything, she rebels against the party in different unassuming ways such as doing low-key things that go against party rules. Julia does not use newspeak, does not follow Brotherhood, and does not believe in any rally held by the party.

Type of Satire - Juvenalian - sinister, sly, mischevious: The tones that the author uses when describing Julia's behavior and thoughts about the party are sinister, sly, and mischevious. Julia is very sinister when describing the first love affair she had "With a party member of sixty who later committed suicide to avoid arrest", she is happy that he is dead because he would've outed her to the party if he was still alive. She also describes how the party takes things away from you such as "a good time." Julia reveals her sly nature when she can, "break the rules and stay alive all the same." Most people in the party are caught when breaking the rules and going against the party. In other words, she avoids vaporization. In the very last sentence of the passage, Winston exposes Julia's mischevious behavior when he describes her, "He wondered vaguely how many others like her there might be in the younger generation people who had grown up in the world of the Revolution, knowing nothing else, accepting the Party as something unalterable, like the sky, not rebelling against its authority but simply evading it, as a rabbit dodges a dog. " In this, it is also revealed that there might be more young people in the party that are likeminded.

Tools of Satire - Direct Characterization - In this passage, the author tells us exactly what the character is like through describing her thoughts about the party and some of her actions. The clear rejection of party values by Julia helps the audience understand her personality on another level.

The target - The target of this passage is young liberals in modern America. From this passage, we understand that Julia rejects party values just as liberals reject conservative (older) values. Just like Julia refuses to use newspeak language, liberals find themselves using modern language and slang that older more traditional people would not understand. At the end of the passage, Winston realizes that there might be more people that think the same way as Julia. This is similar to the fact that liberal views are gaining a larger following as mindsets change.

Quote - "For a week after this, life was like a restless dream. On the next day, she did not appear in the canteen until he was leaving it, the whistle had already blown. Presumably, she had been changed on to a later shift. They passed each other without a glance. On the day after that she was in the canteen at the usual time, but with three other girls and immediately under a telescreen. Then for three dreadful days,​ she did not appear at all. His whole mind and body seemed to be afflicted with an unbearable sensitivity, a sort of transparency, which made every movement, every sound, every contact, every word that he had to speak or listen to, an agony. Even in sleep, he could not altogether escape from her image. He did not touch the diary during those days. If there was any relief, it was in his work, in which he could sometimes forget himself for ten minutes at a stretch. He had absolutely no clue as to what had happened to her. There was no inquiry he could make. She might have been vaporized, she might have committed suicide, she might have been transferred to the other end of Oceania: worst and likeliest of all, she might simply have changed her mind and decided to avoid him."

Veil - Winston is overthinking the absence of the girl with the dark hair after she slipped him the note saying, “I love you.”

Type of Satire - Juvenalian - Uncertain, Tense, Nervous - The tones that the author uses when describing Winston’s feelings about his current situation are uncertain, tense, and nervous. He is very uncertain about where the girl has been since “she did not appear in the canteen until he was leaving it”, and, “Then for three dreadful days she did not appear at all.” The audience can assume that Winston is paying attention to her whereabouts and also feels upset when she isn’t around. We can assume this based on the line, “His whole mind and body seemed to be afflicted with an unbearable sensitivity, a sort of transparency, which made every movement, every sound, every contact, every word that he had to speak or listen to, an agony.” Winston expresses nervousness when he thinks about what could have happened to her, “She might have been vaporized, she might have committed suicide, she might have been transferred to the other end of Oceania: worst and likeliest of all, she might simply have changed her mind and decided to avoid him.”

Tools of Satire- Tragedy - Winston’s apparent suffering with inner thoughts shows the audience that he is distressed. This clear sadness makes the audience feel pity for him and his situation.

The target - The target of this passage is overthinking about something that one has no control over. In the passage, we can understand that Winston is troubled by the fact that he does not see the girl for a few days. He does not have control of the girl's actions much like people in modern society do not have control over many of the things that we stress about.
