The Giver Society Analysis

(AGG) Have you ever thought about rejecting your own society? (BS-1) In Jonas’s community everything is made or planned for you with no choice that you have to make. (BS-2) After Jonas realizes that something is different in his community, he starts to question everything that occurs in his community, especially when he takes the role of becoming the new Receiver of Memory. (BS-3) But after he figures out everything he questioned, he notices that he needs to make a change in his society, something needs to be better in life. (TS) Being in a society that does not allow choices can mostly cause someone to reject that society.

(MIP-1) In the beginning of the book Jonas live a life where himself and the people of the community they follow rules
He felt such love for Asher and for Fiona. But they could not feel back, without the memories. And he could not give them those” (135). (SIP-B) As Jonas finishes the fact that his society has more than what they are given, the information they don’t have, the pain they never experience, what life was like in the past, he eventually makes a plan with The Giver and asks him to go but cannot. But no matter what The Giver says Jonas is still determined to make a change and reject his society in the way they live without the meaning of life. (STEWE-1) Knowing that Jonas will follow through the plan with help from The Giver, he asks him to come as well so he too can change the way society works, but yet he has to help the people when they receive memories when Jonas passes, ““Im grateful to you, Jonas, because without you I would never have figured out a way to bring about change. But your role now is to escape. And my role is to stay”” (162). (STEWE-2) As Jonas comes to the start of his journey and new life he starts to remember the rules he broke what his life like before becoming the New Receiver, but that didn't stop him from following his plan into leaving and changing the way his society is, other words rejecting it, “Jonas reached the opposite side of the river, stopped briefly, and looked back. The community where his entire life had been lived lay behind him now, sleeping. At dawn, the orderly, disciplined life he had always known would continue again, without him. The life where nothing was ever unexpected. Or inconvenient. Or unusual. The life without color, pain, or past” (165). (CS) Eventually Jonas and Gabriel had passed while in their journey but had ded into one of Jonas’s memoires. The memories has not left but has been brought to the people of the community so they will not be left clueless about what the real world is
