Throw Back Thursday

English

Write a response comparing Harrison Bergeron and 1984. 

1. Vonnegut's message seems to say that individual civil rights should never be sacrificed the alleged common good. Do you see examples of this in 1984? Comment on both.

2. Vonnegut shows what extraordinary strength can do: defy the laws of gravity and motion; but Vonnegut also shows that strength can be used to oppress the weak, even in the name of protecting the weak against the excesses of the strong. Is this the case in 1984? Support with examples from both.

Response should be one to one and a half pages in length.
