This class will be a conversation between me and the learner. The learner will be asked to give an overview of the story so far. I will pose questions about the book to engage the learner to think and give their opinions on the key themes of the book and how they may relate to us today. The learner can also say what they like and dislike about the world that has been created in Brave New World. We will read relevant passages from the book and pull out some of the key names mentioned such as Ford, Lenina and the Malthusian medication, discussing their origins and why Huxley included them in his story. The topics we will cover in this lesson will be the natural world v the man made world, choice, individuality and identity, technology and “soft” authoritarianism. All students aged 14 and above are welcome (age restriction due to some of the themes in the book). The only prior knowledge is to have read the first half of the book - or most of it!

Otros detalles
Orientación para padres
There are mentions in the book of a drug called Soma that takes a person away from their troubles, and promiscuity is encouraged in the novel. I will discuss entertainment and wanting to escape from emotions and difficulties, and I will not touch on the promiscuity at all. We will talk about family being destroyed, but not the specifics of promiscuity.
