Chapter 4 Analysis

Chapter 4 Analysis 
Lenina had been with all the men...Interesting 
She was talking about going with Bernard publicly not because she liked him but because she wanted to make a point to the other men.
Paragraph beginning with the and ending with stupor has a pun in it I believe. (Twilight)
Many examples of personification in the first paragraph page 60 (knees and face)
Manifest cordiality-?
Benito symbolizes sun and warmth 
Incandescence-? 
Is everywhere like this or only in where they live? Must all be like this since they can fly around 
Lenina is playing hard to get, Bernard questions himself because of her hard to get attitude 
Bernard did not meet the physical attributes of his cast. ( too short) 
I am I, and wish I wasn't. Cliche or allusion 
Bernard very self conscious, feels inferior 
Mr. Helmholtz described with vivid imagery in last paragraph on page 66 with analogies as well
Helmholtz and Bernard a lot alike because of their mental excess their defects from their castes.
Helmholtz had many women, Bernard did not 
Bernard wants attention tells Helmholtz he's taking Lenina to New Mexico with him 
Helmholtz talks about this feeling he has of power but not sure what it is and doesn't understand it
Helmholtz is sympathetic for Bernard but also embarrassed by him.
