Is the novel Brave New World a commentary to America or society in general?


I have read the book and it seems like talks about society in general although America does fit into many of the things Huxley talks about.

Also, what time period is it geared towards? I know it was written in the 1920’s and 1930’s but is there a particular timer period he is commenting on? I know the book made “predictions” as well but he had to have based them off of something.
I know Huxley was English. Just fyi.

What is the basic structure of the society in the Odyssey?


I’m supposed to write an essay explaining what the culture & society in Homer’s the Odyssey are like, and how their society measures up to our own. I’m also supposed to use examples from the text. I’ve read the epic, but I’m having trouble fleshing out ideas. Any help? Thanks!

Where can I find information about how Poe influenced society during his time?


I’m not talking strictly literary influence, but how he altered society at that time. I specifically want to prove that he increased participation in the funeral industry, but anything I can get is fine. Thanks.

What is a good book that deals with how fashion affects society?


I’m looking for a good book, fiction or non-fiction that has a theme dealing with fashion’s affect on society to use as a main text to analyze for my research paper. Any suggestions?
Ok, I’m not looking for criticism of the subject choice, that’s for me to argue in my paper. I’m looking for book suggestions if you have any. Thanks.
