Chapter 2 book 3

1. He was strapped down and O’Brien had a dial and an electric shock would go through his body that made it feel like his spine was about to snap and his joints where being pulled apart.
2. He is threatening him with the dial that controls the electric shock, he is trying to teach him that the party controls everything, and what they say is how it is. If they say 2+2=5, it equals five not four.
3. Jkjk
4. He forgets everything and it was like he had believened the party and all their lies. O’Brien asked him if Oceania and Eastasia where and at war, and that they have been ever sense he was alive, and Winston said yes. The painless shock treatment only lasted so a short amount of time and Winston started to go back to the way he use to think.
5. Winston: “What have you done with Julia?” O’Brian: “She betrayed you Winston, immediately-unreservedly. I have seldom seen anyone come over to us so promptly. You would hardly recognize her if you saw her. All her rebelliousness, her deceit, her folly, her dirty-mindedness, everything has been burned out of her. It was perfect conversation, a textbook case.

Winston: “You Toreture her?” O’Brien: “ next question.”

Winston: “Does big brother exist?” O’Brien: “ Of course he exists. The Party exists. Big Brother is the embodiment of the Party.”

Winston: “Does her exits in the same way we exits?” O’Brien: “ You do not exist.”


Chapter 3 book 3

1. Stage one: The learning stage. Stage two: the understanding stage. Stage three: the acceptance stage. Winston is about to enter stage two.
2. O’Brien wrote Goldstein’s book, yes, everything that is written in that book is true.
3. The Party seek power for its own sake, they are not interested in others, just power. They say they are different then the powers from the past because they know what they are doing. All the others that resemble them were cowards and hypocrites. The German nazis and the Russian Communists came close to their methods, but never had the courage to recognize their own motives.
4. Slavery is freedom. Alone, free, the human being is always defeated, because every human is doomed to die, which is the greatest of all failures.
5. They have to have power not only over their body, but also their mind.
6. It differs because its build off of fear and hatred instead of love. They destroy any connection between people, they brain wash people, torture, and control everyone. Everyone lives in fear.
7. He believes in human nature, and that there is something that they will not be able to over come. He believes in the spirit of man and they will over come them.
8. He felt pity for himself and his rotting body, he was sad and started crying.
9. One good thing he could say is that he did not betray Julia.
10. He is mad at him because he blames him for looking the way he does, He thinks he is smart because when he said that he had not betrayed Julia O’Brien agreed with him, and anyone else would have said he did betray her because Winston had told them everything about her.
11. He asked when they were going to shoot him.

Book two symbols

Clock- Winston and Julia always think they have more time than they do. The clock is on it’s own time, and isn’t following the rest of the clocks in society. Winston and Julia are like the clock because they are on their own time and they are following the clock that isn’t the same as the rest of the clocks in the society.

Paperweight- Symbolizes Winston’s and Julia’s relationship. It’s a symbol of their own little world and place. The coral was Julia’s life. When they get caught, the paper weight gets smashed just like their relationship did at that same moment.

The singing Prole woman- The song is a sad song, but when she sings it, she makes it sound pretty. It represents that Julia’s and Winston’s relationship was always hopeless, as well as the idea of a new beginning.

Nursery Rhyme about the bells- it represents churches which represents the lower class, and Winston thinks that the lower class are going to be the ones to rebel against the government and overthrow it. The rhyme is Big Brother saying that the rebel and overthrow of the government is never going to happen.

Laws protect Freedom: We think that the Law protects either yourself and your safety, or other people from what you are going to do, and not necessarily your freedom, because to be free is to do whatever you wish without a penalty. For example you could drive around without wearing a seatbelt if you chose, and not get a fine for it.

Greatest Fear

Being buried alive!
