Brave New World: Chapter's 4-5

Literary Elements used:

• Huxley's use of connotation helps the scene between Henry and Lenina become sensual and much more entertaining for the reader, comically understanding the scenario.

• This scene could also be described as an extended metaphor, insinuating the sexual attraction between the two characters

• His use of parallelism when the lower caste helps the reader understand their lack of education through there repetitive use of short sentences and small sayings

• During the conversation between Bernard and Helmholtz, we see the irony of the two characters, and the purposeful place of foil, to point the weakness in one character and the strengths of the other

• The character's in the story use adjectives in the names of their factories and major facilities; this connects synthetic and techno-logic ideas to all of their items and buildings

• Huxley uses known objects and places to connect to the reader, and they are used for immoral purposes; for example: "Westminister Abbey, a very popular place of religious worship, is used as a dance club for the people"

• Puns are also used. When Lenina refers to the "growth" of "plants" through the cremation of people, she is not referring to nature, but referring to the success of factories, showing contrast between the importance of society in the story and in real life
