dc.description.abstractMy BA thesis, titled “The Body as a Metaphor for the Scientific, Social, and Political Transformation in Aldous Huxley’s Point Counter Point, written in 2013, was used as the starting point for this MA thesis. In the former exploration of the novel, I concentrated on three stages of life, namely, the creation process, self-development, and the subjugation of the body, preliminarily from a political and social point of view. In the present paper, some quotations from the primary source, that is, Point Counter Point, I employ in the analysis of Chapter 3 and Chapter 4, were also used in my BA thesis, nevertheless, the analytic framework is different. The emphasis shifted from the artificial creation to the embryonic cellular development at the first level, from the propagandistic social constructions to the Foucauldian concept of power, and finally, from the subjugation of the oppressive power to the circularity of the universal organisms.hu_HU
