Paper Summary:

This paper takes a look at the characters of Winston Smith and his girlfriend, Julia in the novel '1984' by George Orwell. This paper reports that Winston and Julia are trapped in a world lorded over by "Big Brother," a kind of literary metaphor devised by Orwell to describe the government under which these two people live and work. This paper focuses on the rebellion of both characters against the so called "Big Brother".

From the Paper:

"For Julia, her rebellion comes in the form of sex which like Smith's contemplative mind is banned by "Big Brother." When Smith first encounters Julia during the preparations for the "Two Minute Hate" session, it triggers something deep within his subconscious mind. "Winston had disliked her from the very first moment of seeing her," and upon passing Julia in the corridor, her sidelong glance "seemed to pierce right into him and for a moment had filled him with black terror." This "black terror" is related to Winston's deep dislike for women, "especially the young and pretty ones" (Orwell, 9) like Julia.
Certainly, Winston perceived something different about Julia, despite the scarlet sash around her waist, the emblem of the Junior Anti-Sex League. Exactly what this difference was is not clear, yet one can assume that Julia sparked some kind of sexual urge in Winston, for he hallucinates about flogging her "to death with a rubber truncheon" and tying her "naked to a stake" then "ravish her and cut her throat at the moment of climax" (Orwell, 12). For Julia, her sexuality is the basis of her rebellion and it appears that it may have had some influence over Winston's desire to become a rebel as well."
