Hello my darling droogs,

1. Should ultra violent literature be allowed?
2.
Should there be
restrictions surrounding the sale/availability of ultra violent literature? In
today's age how would you control for this when anything is freely accessible
on the internet?
3.
Where is the balance
between free will and censorship/control for protection of citizens?
4.
Is there a connection
between music/literature and violence. Should the musician/author accept some
responsibility for the reinforcement, encouragement of certain feelings/attitudes.
5.
Discuss the use of language
Nadsat slang?
6.
Anthony Burgess has a large
body of work significantly less well know and less violent than his most
infamous novella (he laments that he is most well known for what is not his best work). 'A Clockwork Orange'
was written after Anthony was told his death was imminent due to an inoperable
brain tumour and thought by himself to be his last novel (He lived for a
further 33 years).
7.
I'm of the opinion that the
film depiction was more inflammatory and had more negative influence on the
individual than the book. Do you agree/disagree? (I haven't seen the film, is
visual media more dangerous than the written word?)
8.
Are children just clockwork
oranges?
9.
Is there a difference
between being good because you choose to, or because you're made to?
10.
Would you recommend the
novel to someone else?
