1984 essay on surveillance?
I’m writing a literary essay about 1984, specifically I wanna focus on the methods of surveillance they used and the effects of it and how that connects to real evidence in our world.
My main points of evidence will focus on the philosophy on the panopticon, references to criminology, and how self-surveillance is being applied in modern days with how the newer generation has fear towards being recorded or shamed. It’s kind of all over the place, but I just really need a good thesis to argue for it. I’m not supposed to have an argument that’s too obviously pointed out in the book, but I find the idea of how they used surveillance so interesting I’m not sure how to construct it into an effective thesis.
I have all the research I need, I just gotta connect it a bit. Any tips would be helpful…
