Internal Conflicts for 1984 Period 4

Winston's Internal Conflicts:

  • Fear, worry, paranoia - thought police, living conditions, turned in by others
  • Struggles with fact of constant observation and the consequent lack of privacy and individuality
  • Constant internal self-monitoring and struggle to avoid being noticed and to conform
  • Struggles to know what is real - quest for the truth (attempt to remember his past)
  • Misogyny (dislike of or prejudice towards women)
