Brave New World and "Blade Runner": Man vs. Nature
Summary: Ridley Scott's film "Blade Runner" and Aldous Huxley's novel Brave New World warn of the detrimental human desire to control the natural world and its rhythms through unbridled scientific development. Both stories portray a wedge that divorces humans from their relationship with nature in order to define what it means to be "human." And both depict chilling dystopic futures in which materialistic, scientific, and economic ways of thinking have been allowed to quash humanistic, religious, and philosophical ways of thinking in the name of progress.
