Extractions: Brave New World Genre Novel (267 pp.) Keywords Freedom Genetic Engineering Human Worth Individuality ... Technology Summary In the "brave new world" of 632 A. F. (After Ford), universal human happiness has been achieved. (Well, almost.) Control of reproduction, genetic engineering, conditioningespecially via repetitive messages delivered during sleepand a perfect pleasure drug called "Soma" are the cornerstones of the new society. Reproduction has been removed from the womb and placed on the conveyor belt, where reproductive workers tinker with the embryos to produce various grades of human beings, ranging from the super-intelligent Alpha Pluses down to the dwarfed semi-moron Epsilons. Each class is conditioned to love its type of work and its place in society; for example, Epsilons are supremely happy running elevators. Outside of their work, people spend their lives in constant pleasure. This involves consuming (continually buying new things, whether they need them or not), participating in elaborate sports, and free-floating sex. While uninhibited sex is universal and considered socially constructive, love, marriage, and parenthood are viewed as obscene.

Extractions: A Defence Of Paradise-Engineering Brave New World (1932) is one of the most bewitching and insidious works of literature ever written. An exaggeration? Tragically, no. Brave New World has come to serve as the false symbol for any regime of universal happiness For sure, Huxley was writing a satirical piece of fiction, not scientific prophecy. Hence to treat his masterpiece as ill-conceived futurology rather than a work of great literature might seem to miss the point. Yet the knee-jerk response of "It's Brave New World!" to any blueprint for chemically-driven happiness has delayed research into paradise-engineering for all sentient life. So how does Huxley turn a future where we're all notionally happy into the archetypal dys topia? If it's technically feasible, what's wrong with using biotechnology to get rid of mental pain altogether? Brave New World is an unsettling, loveless and even sinister place. This is because Huxley deliberately endows his "ideal" society with features likely to alienate his audience. Typically, reading BNW elicits the very same disturbing feelings in the reader which the society it depicts has notionally vanquished - not a sense of joyful anticipation. Thus BNW doesn't , and isn't intended by its author to, evoke just how wonderful our lives could be if the human genome were rewritten. Let's say our DNA will be spliced and edited so we can all enjoy life-long bliss, awesome

Extractions: Huxley didn't write a lot of poetry. I only picked a -few- from the book "Collected Poetry Of Aldous Huxley" , although there are quite a few more. Personally, I don't think his poetry is nearly as good as his novel and essay writing, however, since the poetry seems to be hard to find, I'm going to keep this page up. A few people have written mail to me about it, so I feel like it's a good and unique resource. I like his novels much better, like "A Brave New World" , and the classic peyote book "The Doors of Perception" He was pretty inspirational for a number of freaks (such as Timothy Leary and, of course, The Doors Doors Of The Temple

http://fateseeker.tripod.com/bravenewworld.html

Extractions: The Fantastic New World Imagine a world where your life was completely controlled. Where your life was totally controlled, even before the point of conception. Where fate was a totally foreign concept. And where you had no say in what direction your life would take, or how it would end up. Everything was already decided for you. The basic premise of the novel is a so-called "One World State." World governments have united and joined forces. Nations have pooled their resources to make the planet a better place; more importantly, science teams are now working together. Besides this, universal happiness has been achieved. People have access to anything and everything they want. Constant pleasure is theirs. However, the other aspect of this "One World State" is that life as we know it now is over. The scientific advances have yielded total control of the human race. The only history taught is that which occurred "Anno Ford." (Ford - meaning Henry Ford - is considered the supreme being - pretty much the equivalent of our God and Mohammed, both of whom have become obscene.) History, events, and accomplishments which occurred in our time, no matter how innovative or revolutionary, are completely ignored. The works of great artists such as Shakespeare, Da Vinci, and Gallileo have become contraband. In a sense, there was no life before Ford.

Extractions: Chapter One A SQUAT grey building of only thirty-four stories. Over the main entrance the words, CENTRAL LONDON HATCHERY AND CONDITIONING CENTRE, and, in a shield, the World State's motto, COMMUNITY, IDENTITY, STABILITY. The enormous room on the ground floor faced towards the north. Cold for all the summer beyond the panes, for all the tropical heat of the room itself, a harsh thin light glared through the windows, hungrily seeking some draped lay figure, some pallid shape of academic goose-flesh, but finding only the glass and nickel and bleakly shining porcelain of a laboratory. Wintriness responded to wintriness. The overalls of the workers were white, their hands gloved with a pale corpse-coloured rubber. The light was frozen, dead, a ghost. Only from the yellow barrels of the microscopes did it borrow a certain rich and living substance, lying along the polished tubes like butter, streak after luscious streak in long recession down the work tables. "And this," said the Director opening the door, "is the Fertilizing Room."

Extractions: Chapter 18 Search all of A Brave New World "Community, Identity, Stability" is the motto of Aldous Huxley's utopian World State. Here everyone consumes daily grams of soma, to fight depression, babies are born in laboratories, and the most popular form of entertainment is a "Feelie," a movie that stimulates the senses of sight, hearing, and touch. Though there is no violence and everyone is provided for, Bernard Marx feels something is missing and senses his relationship with a young women has the potential to be much more than the confines of their existence allow. Huxley foreshadowed many of the practices and gadgets we take for granted todaylet's hope the sterility and absence of individuality he predicted aren't yet to come. User Comments and Reviews: Paul No Subject October 23rd, 2002 Rating: 6.7000 We have just finished studying BNW in class and a must say there are not many books that raise as many social issues that BNW does. The way society has tried to achieve a Utopia while succeding in creating a dystopia. The way soma and genetics is used has frightening relevance to the situation in todays world. BNW looks at mans quest for domination of the natural world which when looked at closely the reader is able to see in doing this there is virtually nothing left that is natural or hasnt been minipulated to suite the controllers wants of a world based around commerce.

Extractions: Help support access to this information by becoming a member today! (July 26, 1894 - Nov 22, 1963) Novelist and essayist, born in Godalming, Surrey, SE England, UK, the grandson of T H Huxley. He studied at Oxford, lived mainly in Italy in the 1920s, (where he met and befriended D H Lawrence) and moved to California in 1937. His early writing included poetry, short stories, and literary journalism, but his reputation was made with his satirical novels Crome Yellow (1921) and Antic Hay (1923). Later novels include Point Counter Point (1928) and, his best-known work, Brave New World (1932), where he warns of the dangers of dehumanization in a scientific age. His later writing became more mystical in character, as in Eyeless in Gaza (1936) and Time Must Have a Stop (1944), while Island (1962) is an optimistic Utopia. ( biography.com Author of:
