Stile e tematiche del romanzo
The style of the novel is cruel, cutting, mercilessly from the lexical point of view: Orwell does not fear to use explicit terms, if this allows him to be more raw and precise towards the reader.
"1984" is the novel of anti-humanity, in which torture is not used to make you confess and not make you commit your sins, but to make you believe in your guilt; because at that point you will be the one who wants to punish you for having committed your mistake, it will be just when you have taken away your freedom and manipulated to such an extent as to believe in your ideal opposite to wanting your own condemnation.
Il ruolo dei bambini nel regime
Usually the children in the novel are used as a metaphor of innocence and naivety, instead, in 1984, the children are used by the regime and pushed to become spies at its service, indoctrinating them and inciting them to denounce practically anyone, even their own parents.Very often these little boys are described as eavesdropping on doors or following suspicious types; Big Brother uses them without hesitation, going in fact to create a climate of tension and fear even in the family, in theory a "refuge" to the outside world, and at the same time destroying the family structure, eliminating trust by making sure that nothing can escape from regime control.
