John's Character Development A Brave New World
In Brave New World by Aldous Huxley, John’s identities are influenced by two opposite societies, and even though he tries to prove his manhood and change the framework of brave new world, he can’t gain real acceptance from anywhere. John’s mother, Linda, is from the brave new world but gave birth to him in the savage reservation and her different behaviors based on the framework of the brave new world caused John’s isolation in the savage reservation. John decides to move to the brave new world and becomes popular in this society, but his identity, influenced by his “savage” culture, can’t be accepted by the community. His conflict with the brave new world finally forces him to try to change the framework of the society, but his attempt is futile because it goes against the stability of this new environment and leads him to suicide.
John can’t gain acceptance and prove his manhood in the savage reservation because of his mother’s unacceptable behaviors which were influenced by the framework of the brave new world. Although John was born in the savage reservation, he is an outcast and different from others in this society. The main reason which causes his isolation comes from his mother’s unacceptable deportment. Linda used to be a typical citizen in the brave new world. Her personality was conditioned by its code of behavior which went totally against the framework of the savage reservation. The biggest difference is the view of sexual relations. In order to attain stability, the brave new world doesn’t want its citizens to suffer for their desires to have sex. Linda maintains this belief after she goes to the savage reservation. She has sex with anyone she wants and can’t understand what she has done wrong. These behaviors can’t be accepted by the savage citizens. They think that having sex should be based on love and marriage, and that people should show loyalty to their mates. Because of their different viewpoints, women came to abuse her, which not only hurt
