Essay / Research Paper Abstract
The concept of power is a theme running through all relationships, and each takes a different turn in Perkin’s Herland and Orwell’s 1984. Van and Ellador reach an understanding, a middle ground that allows each to experience the other’s world. Winston and Julia also find a middle ground in 1984, but this is through the loss and mutual betrayal. As such, these relationships reflect the vagaries of a love in a maternally versus a paternally based society. The maternal powerbase extends to the entire world; brotherly love does not. 2 sources. jv1984her.rtf

In 1984, the society also succeeds, and it does so based on the concepts of domination and control. The success of the Orwellian
society is based on constructs entirely adverse to those in Herland, with the outcome being a lack of desire to perform for and serve society. This instigates a strong desire
to fight against controls by both men and women. This is a power struggle for Winston and Julia, one they try to fight together.
Winston is happy to connect with Julia, who shares his ideas and desires for societal reforms. They compliment each other in their rebellion against the Party, as well as
in their personal habits. Winston finds it difficult to swear or curse the Party, while Julia cannot stop herself from cursing it every time she speaks its name. The couple
