Abstract
This dissertation aims to analyze two dystopian novels; 4891 by George Orwell and The Queue by Basma Abdel-Aziz to show how different forms of control practiced by authority over citizens’ bodies and minds to achieve supreme power in totalitarian societies are depicted in these two dystopian novels. A comparative study of the two novelists’ views in the societies they depict shows how authority
in totalitarian world challenges any notion of independence and damages individual autonomy through the use of strict regulated regime, constant surveillance and prescribed social functions. Fairclough’s notion of “ideology” and Michel Foucault’s discussion of “panopticism” provide a crucial basis for understanding the structure of Orwell’s and Abdel-Aziz’s totalitarian world.
