Between criticism, the public and the author: construction of social sense and criticism in Brave New World in Aldous Huxley

Abstract

The main objective of this work is to discuss the aesthetic project created by Aldous Huxley in his distant novels, especially in Brave New World, first published in 1932. On the basis of a comparison with some other distant novels of the same period, we intend to demonstrate how Huxley’s work seems to have an aesthetic project between the specialist criticism, its audience and the representation of himself as someone who is able to predict the future by means of his novel. By addressing the issue of death within the fictional frame, we want to present to the reader how this prognosis tries to validate, more or less successfully, in front of his audience as the future to be seen by the men and women of the next generations.
