Please use these questions as a guide as you read Chapter 12. If you wish to answer them for extra credit, please post o your blog by January 4.
1. In what ways does Bernard remind you of Dr. Treves or the nightwatchman in The Elephant Man?
2. Why does John have to use Zuni to express how he feels?
3. Why does Lenina feel "a sense of dreadful emptiness, a breathless apprehension, a nausea." (p. 174)?
4. Why doesn't Mustapaha Mond want "A New theory of Biology" not to be published? Does the work remind you of anything that we have studied recently?
5. Do you agree with Bernard's belief in the "principal functions of a friend" as described on p. 179? Why does he feel this way toward John and Helmholtz?
6. What does Helmholtz think of Shakespeare?
