Handmaid's Tale Journal 3

In The Handmaid's Tale there are several things that could be the problem of the Republic of Gilead. Religion is the basis of the republic changing the views on sex, women, other religions, knowledge. One of the first ways the government decides to do about society was to burn the magazines of pornography and escalating to isolating women and the severity of the laws continued to rise. The line freedom to versus freedom from is the base of the author' warning. The Republic of Gilead saw harm in the idea that there were limited boundaries for the people allowing them freedom. There was not enough order. Order was built by the republic for the safety of the nation's people and was justified by God. There became walls that separated cities into districts limiting the people you seem and those in which you can communicate with. There became strict social class that put limits on speaking, labor, and other rights. There are other pieces to the warning one way represented in the book is through the side characters. Each of them are different parts of the concept of like the problem, the consequences, and the solution. Aunt Lydia and Janine help in the continuation of building the problem. The Mother, Daughter, and Moira suffered the consequences rebelling or being different Ofglen and Luke can be seen as part of the solution because one is part of the rebellion and one was rebellious.
