When meeting her, Winston divulges that he is 39 and later discovers Julia is During his flashbacks with his mother, he speculates that he could have been anywhere from 10 to 12, and that his baby sister couldn't be much older than one year.
Why was Syme vaporized? The reason why Syme was vaporized as what Winston thought was he was way too intelligent. He was able to understand why he was creating the new edition of the Newspeak dictionary as shown when he talks to Winston. He knew way too much. Somewhere that intelligent might overthrow the government of Oceania.
Why does Winston cry at the end of the book? His dreams of the Brotherhood are wrecked when O'Brien, his hoped-for link to the rebellion, enters his cell. What does Julia symbolize in ? Julia is Winston Smith's love-interest and his ally in the struggle against Big Brother. She represents the elements of humanity that Winston does not: pure sexuality, cunning, and survival.
She busies herself with getting around the Party, unlike Winston, who wishes to attack the Party at its center. What does the word Winston mean? More than anything, Winston seeks the unadulterated truth—and the only way to attain that is by rebelling against the totalitarian rule of the Party:. Anything that hinted at corruption always filled him with a wild hope.
Who knew, perhaps the Party was rotten under the surface, its cult of strenuousness and self denial simply a sham concealing iniquity. If he could have infected the whole lot of them with leprosy or syphilis, how gladly he would have done so! Anything to rot, to weaken, to undermine!
Some of the more steamy acts of rebellion occur when Winston gets jiggy with Julia:. She stood looking at him for an instant, then felt at the zipper of her overalls. And, yes! It was almost as in his dream. Almost as swiftly as he had imagined it, she had torn her clothes off, and when she flung them aside it was with that same magnificent gesture by which a whole civilization seemed to be annihilated.
Winston's strengths lie in his unwavering individuality and the accompanying fervent rebelliousness. Seriously, even just keeping his journal is enough to warrant a death sentence—the dude's brave. Being with Julia brings out even more of the rebel within him, which is why they're a match made in rebel heaven. Winston is extremely and deservingly paranoid, and his overriding belief that the Party will ultimately catch and punish him becomes gospel. Believing that he is helpless in evading his fate, Winston takes unnecessary risks, and is eventually surprise, surprise apprehended by the Thought Police.
What can we say—these bros ain't loyal. Why is the war in never ending? Why is the photo of Jones, Aaronson, and Rutherford important? Is Julia a spy working with the Thought Police?
Why is Julia attracted to Winston? Why is Newspeak so important? Winston Smith creates a war hero, Captain Ogilvy, who has led an "ideal" life and was killed in battle. Winston writes a speech that Big Brother is supposed to have given, commending this hero that never existed.
It strikes Winston that he could create a dead man but not a living one. Ogilvy, now in the records, exists on the same authority as genuine, living people. This chapter is full of details about Winston's work life: from the speakwrite , a contraption into which Winston speaks the articles that will be later written speaking and writing here considered opposites , to the memory holes in which "records" are thrown, not to be remembered and documented, but to be destroyed.
