Model utopické společnosti a vliv jejích totalitních mechanismů na život jedince v dílech Konec civilizace Aldouse Huxleyho a 1984 George Orwella
 OSUCHOVÁ, Kateřina
This thesis examines the image of a utopian society and the impact of totalitarian regimes on the lives of individuals in George Orwell's 1984 and Aldous Huxley's The Brave New World. These dystopian works reflect the world in the first half of the twentieth century and offer the readers a critique of the modern social order. The thesis first introduces the authors and their works, then focuses on the historical and social context. The elements of utopian society and totalitarian mechanisms are analysed in selected books to show how the above factors can be used (or misused) to manipulate, control and suppress human freedom and individuality, and what impact they have on the formation of a society controlled and constrained by utopian ideologies.
