    Dystopian literature tells a story, but underneath it has a hidden motive. Dystopian literature is a rare genre that is very unfamiliar to our society today. Dystopians are twisted in someway, whereas Utopians are founded on good morals and a good base of rules.

    Ashton Martin Period 4 De Tie 2011 January 31 Dystopian literature Dystopian literature comes from the word Utopia.

    Utopia literally means an imagined state of things in which everything is perfect. Thomas Moore, however first created the meaning of it to be a perfect society on an island in the Atlantic. He was the first person to use the genre Dystopia. Dystopian literature tells a story, but underneath it has a hidden motive. The novel with this genre will teach you that if society is to continue abusing their general liberties, what is going on in the book could happen. Dystopia is the almost opposite of Utopia. Dys is a prefix meaning bad. If utopia is meaning a perfect society, dystopia is meaning a bad society. Utopians are founded on good morals and a good base of rules, whereas dystopians are twisted in someway. They are perfectly messed up and ruined. The government also plays a huge role in these books. The government of a utopian society versus a dystopian society range between an ideal place where anyone would love to live, and a problematic society where people live in fear and are daunted. Dystopian literature is a rare genre that is very unfamiliar to our society today. Many people are unaware of this type of writing because there arent as many dystopian books. It is a sub-genre and set in a futuristic state in which most all laws have been transformed into bad, life has been degraded into having no freedoms, and even books are outlawed! This type of society is an example of how perfect we dont want to be, perfectly bad.
