4.page 81-“It was a wild, unthinkable idea, to be surrendered when thought of; yet the room had stirred in him a kind of sentimentality, a kind of hereditary memory. He couldn’t help suspecting that he knew precisely what it felt like to sit in a room this way, in an easy chair close to an open fire with your feet in the bumper and a pot on the hob; totally alone, absolutely secure, with no one watching you, no voice seeking after you, no solid aside from the singing of the pot and the well disposed ticking of the clock.” (Note: there is no telescreen right now)

For what reason does Winston have memory of not being viewed by older sibling? Is this a reference to the absence of observation (and Big Brother all in all) in his youth or something different?

5. Page 91-“He wolfed another boring feast in the bottle, rushed off to the Center, participated in the grave silliness of a ‘conversation group’..”

I thought calling the conversation bunch a “serious silliness” was an intriguing depiction since it takes the two viewpoints. The gravity is the outside point of view on it, yet Winston trusts it to be silliness. This is a paradoxical expression (sort of) in that holding a silly thought in high respect is ludicrous, yet the philosophy of the gathering is genuinely essential to other people.

6.A)page 91-“… Winston could barely hear what Parsons was stating, and was continually requesting some inane comment to be rehashed”

Inane senseless, irrelevant, futile

Could be utilized in “quit making foolish jokes” or “the discussion was silly”

B) page 86-“… a brazen female voice was squalling a devoted melody.”

Brazen (ordinarily of a lady) blandly gaudy or noisy in appearance or way.

Could be utilized in “her voice was extremely brazen” or “the on-screen character’s affectation was bold”

1.page 122-“He transformed over towards the light and lay looking into the glass paperweight. The boundlessly intriguing thing was not the piece of coral but rather the inside of the glass itself. There was such a profundity of it, but then it was nearly as straightforward as air. It was just as the outside of the glass had been the curve of the sky, encasing a modest world with its environment complete. He had the inclination that he could get inside it, and that in truth he was inside it, alongside the mahogany bed and the gateleg table, and the clock and the steel etching and the paperweight itself. The paperweight was the room he was in, and the coral was Julia’s life and his own, fixed in a kind of time everlasting at the core of the precious stone.”

I believed this section to be troublesome on account of the various thoughts that Winston could be attempting to communicate. The multifaceted nature and, if a point is expected, backhandedness makes the translating of the passage substantially more troublesome. Winston’s previously mentioned feeling that when with Julia he is in a spot without elder sibling appears to be a presumable contender for a translation of Winston’s thoughts here.

2.page 124-” The proles, regularly aloof about the war, were being lashed into one of their periodical furors of patriotism.As however to fit with the general state of mind, the rocket bombs had been executing bigger quantities of individuals than expected.”
