Brave New World- Dystopian Literature information AND Schools of Theory

We are starting Brave New World right after Spring Break. I have passed out the text, and I would suggest that you get a start on reading if you have the time during SB.

BNW is a FANTASTIC BOOK! You will thoroughly enjoy it! With this being said, you will have to work for this book! You need to read as you have been taught this school year. This is a DYSTOPIAN NOVEL. 

Here is some great information to review for the dystopian genre: Dystopia Handout

Remember to implement the newest schools of literary theory as you are reading, but do not forget the previous schools we have covered... 

The schools that will be informative in your reading: 
1. Psychoanalytical
2. Marxist (sociological)
3. Feminist
4. Philosophical/Biographical

Use the Formalist school to guide with the HOW in order to see the WHY!
