Slide 10 - Diapositive

Dystopian literature
Utopian fiction (16th century): human being is good and can be perfected (become social/ less selfish) by society and politics



Dystopian fiction:  human nature means utopia ( a perfect world) is impossible; if society doesn't resist power and greed, it will become worse



An example of dystopian fiction is "1984" (G. Orwell, 1949)
-> utopian social programming forbids human instincts  (enjoyment of food, sex, beautiful things etc.)
-> the government controls people, manipulates people's weakness and brings out the worst through fear and deprivation

Slide 11 - Diapositive

Dystopian literature

  • 1950s/1960s -> technology develops -> dystopian literature shows societies ruled by machines

  • Modern times -> dystopian literature explores  environmental and social justice issues. 

examples: 
  • 1984 (G. Orwell) -> big brother is watching you; thought control; love & sex forbidden

  •  The Handmaid’s Tale (M. Atwood, 1985) -> a totalitarian fundamentalist Christian movement has overthrown the U.S.  government and suspends nearly all women’s rights.  Limited fertility means that women who are able to bear children are randomly assigned to high-ranking men as property. 

  • The Hunger Games (picture)/The Maze Runner trilogy ->  environmental catastrophe, social injustice, and government surveillance to tell stories of characters fighting to maintain their individuality.
