Any literary form leaves an impact on every person. Infect, literature is written to give a message to society, the message of love, revenge, resistance, and many more. Dystopian literature is a genre of fiction set in future or near future societies where life and social structures are in calamitous decline.
This blog is in response to Prof . Dilip Barad.
Q- Do you think dystopian and Orwellian stories or films can have an impact on how people think about politics and society? Why or why not?
A- In my opinion, Yes. dystopian and Orwellian stories or films can have an impact on how people think about politics and society. But when we talk about countries that have Dictators, the getup of Democracy will always suffer as a dystopian character. Whatever happens to the people, they will always be distracted by the Language and Lollipops. Recent time , and winning of Trump are an example of this kind of situation. such people believe in experiences. Literature will always remain a a form of Entertainment. To get affected by such as the highest form of literature like Dystopia, requires maturity, a sense of right and wrong things, and knowledge about the language of politics. But people would rarely like to read and like to get inspired by such qualitative literature as dystopian literature and Orwellian stories. People would rather prefer to become BHAKTA and get infected by the split of politicians.
Dystopian and Orwellian stories or films can have an impact on how people think about politics and society but they won't get an infection until they experience the harsh reality of politics. I would really like to mention poem by Rabindranath Tagore "Ekla Chalo Re".
जब काली घटा छाए
ओरे ओरे ओ अँधेरा
सच को निगल जाए
जब दुनिया सारी डर के आगे
सर अपना झुकाए
तू शोला बन जा, वो शोला बन जा
जो खुद जल के जहां रोशन कर दे
ऐकला जौलो रे
जोदी तोर डाक शुने...
