Fourth assignment

"Freedom is slavery" - one of the slogans of Big Brother's party is a metaphor because slavery cannot be freedom. It is a supporting detail to "feel" the setting of the book.

Big brother is a symbol of controlling government. To me it reminds Hitler's propaganda at that times. In the text he represents the governing power over the people and also tyranny. It also supports the setting.
