Identity of each humanness being known as either an Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Deltas or Epsilon. And finally, stability in spite of appearance the mirthful forward-looking world through each type of human astute their uti lisation in spite of appearance the touch on and that in that location leave alone be no un mirth within the humans. cool for all the summers beyond the panes, for all the tropical heat of the room itself pg.1hither we chew the fat the artificial disposition of the brave unexampled world. Thither is no heat emitted throughout highlighting the particular that the humans in the world ar roughlywhat artificial too. The rooms argon not heated through a natural process although it is all d oneness through machinery and if not even summer would be a cold season.Hands g hunchd with a pale corpse- food colouringed rubber. The light frozen, dead, a ghost. pg.1This provides another insight into the world which has been created through the various processes and techniques that have been implemented in the brave bare-ass world. It shows that there is no uniqueness within the community and that everyone is if they argon dead and that they is no actual life.For particulars, as everyone knows, make for virtue and happiness generalities argon intellectually necessary evils pg.2This shows that everybody within the brave new world has been made for a unusual purpose and that they can only fulfill that purpose. Liking what you are doing provides virtue and happiness and so there are particulars although having generalities and room for potential and ability to rise above others is evil. This is the message that the director provides the students to show that this is the high hat style forward and that the way it was carried out before-Ford was a headache to all.Year of stability A.F 632 pg.2The director lecture to the students, always refers to what they are doing as the year of stability, the year were the process of what they are doing to create a brave new world stabilizes and continues to bring public assistance to those brought up with it. A.F stands for After-Ford, the creator of the Ford T-Model, and the dates are base on around him.Alphas and Betas rema ined until definitely bottled while the Gammas, Deltas and Epsilons were brought out again pg.3This is the process that was applied to the various embryos to get back the intellectual capabilities of each individual. The more type O a type received the higher their news would be so that is why the alphas and betas, the smarter humans, would remain with group O while the Gammas, Deltas and Epsilons would only have a authorized tot of time with oxygen as they were not required to do high intellectual jobs. further a bokanovskified egg impart bud, will proliferate, and will divide. From eight to ninety-six buds and every bud will turn over into a perfectly formed embryo, and every embryo into a full-sized adult. Making ninety-six human beings put up where only one grew before. Progress pg.3-4Yet again the director tells the students of his beloved process which form adults which they serve at present. In a normal process, eggs will bud and form one embryo to form a full-sized adult although in the brave new world, a Bokanovsky egg due to scientific enchantments, are able to fire over ninety adults. This shows that there has been significant advancements in the human lavation and that they study that progress is the key.Bokanovskys Process is one of the major(ip) instruments of social stability Major instruments of social stability. measuring rod men and women in uniform batches. pg.5Bokanovskys process is the one that is ruling over the brave new world. It allows for certain type of flock to be born with a certain limit to their intellectual capabilities and as a result it provides the social stability that was being looked for. It provides both men and women to do the identical job with the same abilities to do so and so it provides stability.Like chickens drinking, the students lifted their eyes towards the distant ceiling pg.8This shows that even those who are on a tour of the process are in condition(p) in such as way that they to do things at the same pace and share the same amount of interest in the head at hand. It also highlights the fact that there is not much room for uniqueness within the brave new world and that humans are at a point where they are nearly as unique as a chicken in a group of them.So we allow as many as thirty per cent of the fe anthropoid embryos to develop normally. The others get a dose of male sex-hormone every twenty-four metres for the rest of the course. Result theyre decanted as freemartins structurally preferably normalbut sterile. Pg.10hither we view the process that is carried out to make female adults although make sure that they do not have the capability or desires to reproduce as this would cause a disruption to the stability of brave new world. The process involves allowing the female to develop normally for thirty-percent although they are accordingly given a dose of male sex-hormone so that they are freemartins and at the same time still structurally fine.The lower the caste, the shorter the oxygen pg.11The Alphas, Betas, Gamma, Deltas and Epsilons are all other than intellectually capable and this is due to the amount of oxygen that they receive as embryos. The more oxygen that one receives the higher the intelligence, as Alphas do the approximately amount work inquireing intelligence they are given the most oxygen and so then are recognized as Alphas while the least amount of oxygen is given to those who do not need much intelligence to recognize their task which Epsilons.But in Epsilons, we dont need human intelligence pg.11Epsilons are the lowest caste within the brave new world association and they do not need a large amount of human intelligence to complete their role in the society. As they do not need this intelligence they are starved of oxygen so they do not move up within the castes and so stability is upheld.And that, put in the Director sententiously, that is the secret of happiness and virtue liking what youve got to so. All condition ing aims at that making wad equal their unescapable social destinypg .12The process that is involved in making a human is one of ease in the brave new world and for that to continue the people that are born must be lettered into liking what they have to do. For modeling, if an Epsilon was conditioned into liking cleaning toilets they would be rewarded as a five-year-oldster to go near toilets although if they were not, they would not like this job and therefore there would be an uprising. condition is all about making people like their unescapable social destiny.They learn to associate topsy-turvydom with well-being in fact theyre only truly clever when theyre standing on their heads pg.13-14This underlies the process of conditioning, undergoing processes so that the human is associated with the job or role they play, even if that means making them hate books and flowers. here we construe that the embryos are propertyd upside- cut down so that when they are born that is t he state that they receive comfortable in and that they will be conditioned to do their job with better results. barefaced New humannessAldous HuxleyChapter 2 QuotesBooks and rubbishy noises, flowers and electric shocksTheyll grow up with what the psychologists used to call an instinctive hatred of books and flowers. Reflexes unalterably conditioned. pg.17This is another typeface of where conditioning changes the natural growth of a person. In this example we see that babies are conditioned to hate books and flowers through the use of playing loud noises whenever they played with books and handsome them slight electric shocks whenever they played with flowers. This then meant that the babies when grow up and have a hatred for books and flowers and will necessitate nothing to do with them which allows them to do certain jobs within the society.It was decided to abolish the love of nature, at any rate among the lower classes pg.18Abolishing the love of nature allows for certain types of people to do certain jobs within the brave new world society without the hatred of doing the job. This is especially forced upon the lower classes including Deltas and Epsilons as they required the conditioning to do things of low intelligence and therefore there will be no uprising against what they are assigned to do.We conditioned the plurality to hate the country, but simultaneously we condition them to love all country sports pg.18Here is another example of where conditioning sets a particular liking and disliking for different things. In this example it is of hating he country so that people do not have the intention to travel there although they love the country sports so they can watch it on television resulting in their ago times filled instead of wanting(p) to do other activities.(Here the Director made a sign of the T on his stomach and all the students reverently followed suit) pg. 20The T symbol indicates the significance of Henry Fords T-Model car and that not only does the director mention what he has contributed to make the brave new world possible but the students to understand that he is a divinity like figure and must be respected.Elementary Class ConsciousnessAll raid green and Delta children wear khaki. Oh no, I dont want to play with Delta children. And Epsilons are still worse. Theyre too stupid to be able to read or write. Besides, they wear black, which is such a beastly colour. Im so glad Im a Beta. Alpha children wear grey pg. 22This shows that each class of people, the Alphas, Betas, Gammas, Deltas and Epsilons have different uniforms to wear so that they can be easily recognized by others. For example, Delta children wear khaki, Epsilons wear black, and Alphas wear grey. in time this child who is talking in this example says he is glad to be a Beta because he is conditioned in such a way that he does like being who he is and does not want it any other way.Brave New WorldAldous HuxleyChapter 3 QuotesMustapha MondBe rnard MarxLenina Crowne pg.28These three people all feed significant background histories in different areas although the names are changed slightly within the novel. Mustapha Mond is the Resident World Controller of Western Europe, one of only ten World Controllers. He was once an ambitious, young scientist do illicit research. When his work was discovered, he was given the choice of going into exile or training to constrain a World Controller. Bernard Marx an Alpha male who fails to fit in because of his inferior physical stature. He holds unconventional beliefs about sexual relationships, sports, and community events. His insecurity about his size and status makes him discontented with the World State. Bernards prenomen recalls Karl Marx, the nineteenth-century German author ruff known for writing Capital, a monumental critique of capitalist society. Finally, Lenina Crowne is a vaccination worker at the Central London Hatchery and Conditioning Centre. She is an object of de sire for a number of major and minor characters, including Bernard Marx and John. Her behavior is sometimes intriguingly unorthodox, which makes her attractive to the reader.Home, home a few small rooms, stiflingly over-inhabited by a man, by a periodically teeming woman, by a rabble of boys and girls of all ages. No air, no space an under sterilized prison darkness, disease and smells pg.31This quote describes the spirit areas of the people within brave new world. They are not given much although they are conditioned to feel happy about what they have and they do not complain despite the fact that they are living with a large number of male and females as well as boys and girls in little space which teems full of diseases and unpleasant smells.Dr. Wells advised me to have a Pregnancy Substitute. pg.32This is Lenina Crowne talking, where she says that she is having a gestation substitute a process Since there is no subsist birth or pregnancy, only decanting, it is suggested that women take a pregnancy substitute, which lasts several months. The procedure is not described in detail. It is compulsory at age twenty-one, but some women have it as early as seventeen.But everyone belongs to everyone else, pg.34Through everyone belonging to everyone else, there is no need for marriage, is no need for love or no need for reproduction between the opposite sexes. This allows for the Bokanovskys process to rise and continue to taken over the brave new world. This also means that there will be stability which is essentially what is being cherished in this society and by everyone just as similar as the near and no connectedness between anyone it can be upheld.No wonder those low-down pre-moderns were mad and criminal and miserablethey were not conditioned to obeythey were forced to feel strongly pg.35Here we see that there is a shift in time and that before Ford, people who were called pre-moderns were miserable and wicked because they were not conditioned and con trolled by the community and could do whatever they liked and that cause a riddle of society as well as feeling and supporting what they thought was correct. This to moderns sounds like a past that they do not want to go back to and therefore advocate the process and society they live in now.No civilization without social stability. No social stability without individual stability pg.36Here we see the motto being used, especially that of stability within the brave new world. Stability is a key concept within the society and one that is believed to be needed for a civilization to flow forward. This stability is only reached when individuals are stable and feel that and is why conditioning is such a major factor in this society.Impulse arrested spills over, and the flood is feeling, the flood is passion, the flood is even madness pg.37Here we see that everyone in the society of brave new world is brainwashed and conditioned into thinking what the leaders believe to be correct, there is no uniqueness. The people believe that if they think and act for themselves there are consequences for doing so which is stated above, and the end result will be madness, something no one wants.Shorten that interval, break down all those unnecessary barriersNo pains have been spared to make your lives emotionally easy pg.37Here we see that the people of the brave new world are made to work only short spurts of time so that they do not have to face barriers which can hindered their performance. This therefore means that they are not face up with various emotional problems and can do the particular job that they were assigned to be at the best of their ability.Talking about her as though she were a bit of meat pg.39This is how the men speak of as the women. They are not as important as themselves but of must less significance despite the fact that they are of the same intellectual capabilities. When the men do see a good looking women they would oftentimes pay no respect for the m as just as it states, talk of them like they are meat.Everyone belongs to everyone else, afterwards all pg. 40Through everyone belonging to everyone else, there is no need for marriage, is no need for love or no need for reproduction between the opposite sexes. This allows for the Bokanovskys process to rise and continue to taken over the brave new world. This also means that there will be stability which is essentially what is being wanted in this society and by everyone just as similar as the next and no connection between anyone it can be upheld.Brave New WorldAldous HuxleyChapter 4 QuotesDroning surrender of the well, the twilight of his habitual stupor. It was warm and bright on the roof. The summer afternoon was drowsy with the hum of passing helicopters and the deeper radio-controlled aircraft of the rocket-planes hastening. pg.51Here we see that everything in the brave new world is mechanized and run my machinery. There is no need for humans to do certain jobs includin g reproduction as that has all been allocated to the machines to undergo that process. There is no natural buzz created by humans when working and there is no natural feeling although there is a dull hum of the machinery working consistently of where humans used to.The malice and bad tempers from which other people had to take holidays never afflicted him pg.52In the brave new world there are a specified number of separate social castes and no more. Here we see that there is an unmatched example of Benito who always saw things sunny-side up. It was the nature within him to act of as if everyone deserved a spot chance and that they are all good people at heart. He did not have a bad temper nor would be wish bad things upon other people.To have dealings with members of the lower castes was always, for Bernard, a most distressing experience pg.55Here we see Bernard, of the higher class in the brave new world society, not wanting to deal with lower castes because he had been condition ed in such a way that people underneath with were not as good as him. They were below his dignity and he could not force himself to have any association with those people. It was just the way that the brave new world society operated.The mockery made him feel like an outsider and feeling an outsider he behaved like one, which increased the prejudice against him pg.55/56Here we see how Bernard felt when talking to the various castes including the Gammas and Epsilons. He is tempered as if he does not belong and that his reactions to this is to behave like an alien, alone and an outsider. It was because of the way that he dealt with the problem that the others began to increase their prejudice against him.Brave New WorldAldous HuxleyChapter 5 QuotesAnt like pullulation of lower-caste activity pg.63This is describing the lower-caste population and comparing them to how ants work in universal life. The jobs they did were monotonous unlike Alphas whose jobs were varied and diverse. The lower-caste did jobs that were boring and did not need much intellect to complete them although they enjoyed what they did because of the conditioning process that is in place in the brave new world.Phosphorus recoveryOne their way up the chimney the gases go through four separate treatments. Now they recover over ninety eight percent of it. More than a kg and a half per adult corpse. pg.63Here we see that everything in the brave new world is not wasted even including human bodies after they have died. They have constructed a process which they extract phosphoric out of the decaying human body which is used for other purposes. This shows how different the brave new world is from the everyday world.Everyone works for everyone else. We cant do without anyone pg.64In the brave new world it is operated through everyone doing their job, without any fighting which is or so accomplished with the conditioning program that is compulsory for everyone within the brave new world. Everyone ha d a certain role to play and they must do their duty if progress it to continue into the future.Brave New WorldAldous HuxleyChapter 6 QuotesWhen the individual feels, the community reels pg.81Here we see that Lenina talking about how the individual must realize that they are part of the community and that it is practically all for one and one for all. If the individual does not pull their weight down and contribute evenly to the community then the community will pay the prices. It does not matter if everyone else in the community is performing at their peak, but for the community to actually perform at its optimum, everyone must work.Brave New WorldAldous HuxleyChapter 7 QuotesThe tall houses rose like stepped and amputated pyramids into the blue sky pg.92Here we see that nothing in the brave new world is natural and nobody is individual and unique. Everything is the same and comparison overpowers uniqueness within the society. Everything which has been made has been done so in mass numbers including the houses and the pyramids which have been erected.Cleanliness is next is next to fordliness pg.94In the brave new world, God is not the main figure of power within the world nor is he even recognized as a ruling power. Ford, the man who created the T-model car is the overwhelm leader of the brave new world and has say over all the rules in the society. Nothing is god like, but Ford like, he is the divine leader of this new world.We pass their internal secretions artificially equilibrate at a youthful equilibrium. We dont permit their magnesium-calcium ratio to fall below what it was at thirty. We give them transfusions of young blood. We keep their metabolism for good stimulated pg.95Here we see another process which is taken to keep the brave new world functioning in such a way that it benefits the community. This process of giving everyone transfusions of young blood which not only keeps them feeling young but keeping their metabolism permanently stimu lated allows for everyone to prevent the aging process as well as not growing old.The place was queer, so what the music, so were the clothes and the hoisters and the skin diseases and the old people pg.97Here we see where the brave new world society has not assigned their ways on. It was so different to what people of the brave new world had experienced, everything that was not present in the brave new world including diseases and old people was present and this disgusted those who did not live in these conditions. This is the world that we live in at the present moment.But his plaited hair was straw coloured, his eyes a pale blue, and his skin a white skin, bronzed pg.100This individual was one who had a mix of cross blood and was not one of the natives. This could be identified quite easily through the way his hair was coloured and was worn as well as they colour of his eyes and the colour of his skin. All these branded him as psyche who was not an actual resident and was differ ent to the others.They disliked me for my complexion pg.100Here we see a young man talking to Lenina and he starts to cry because those who touch him thought and treated him like an outsider despite the fact that her tried so very stiff to fit if, even happily get whipped to be accepted.

Everything they do is mad pg.104Here we see that see does not like living in the normal world outside from the brave new world as there is no conditioning and that there is room for improvement and never being happy with what one has.
