Synthesis Essay : Social Identity <\/div>\n
Context\/ Review:<\/p>\n

In George Orwell\u2019s 1984, privacy is considered criminal. Privacy threatens order, so it is erased by surveillance and replaced by membership in government-organized activity. People are required to abandon the quest to develop themselves as individuals and instead put their energy into developing their social selves by participating in various kinds of organized activity which is structured for them.<\/span><\/div>\n


<\/span><\/div>\n
Writing Prompt: How and why does social identity replace individual identity? When or why must we sacrifice parts of our personal identities in order to be a productive member of the larger social world? What lessons does the novel teach about this topic? <\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
 To develop your position in a specific and unique way, you may wish to focus on any of the issues that we have encountered in our reading and discussion of the novels, and use your insights to develop an original idea. For example, rethink how any of the following plot elements shed light on the theme of public vs private identity:<\/p>\n

the failed attempts at intimacy and relationships between characters;
\nthe corruption of family ties
\nthe devaluing of reading and writing by the dystopian governments;
\nthe repeated mindless slogans and the gaslighting characters are taught to embrace;
\nthe constant distractions of entertainment and busy activity they are expected to participate in;
\nthe mindless, relentless, technical work they do every day;
\nthe demand from peers that they conform to certain standards of appearance and behavior;
\nthe constant surveillance they come to expect and accept
\nthe threat of war which leads to fear, re-directs anger, and is transformed into patriotism
\nthe role of architecture in preserving and maintaining private rituals and social norms.  <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
