We #3

Motifs: There is a more apparent repetition of facial features and body parts and D-503 recognizes and describes people by their body parts in the final third of the novel. He does this because he has his soul so he is more imaginative with his description but he is also on a thin line between going back to his old ways of being straight-forward and fully accepting his soul. This is because his descriptions of people are often very creative and out of the box, but his ways of categorizing them is very logical. Body parts may also be foreshadowing for the Great Operation because D-503 describes a doctor as having "scissor-lips" and since it was a doctor and scissors are a surgery tool, it may be a way of subtly foreshadowing the Great Operation.

Setting: The setting changes to more of nature than sealed in walls in this final section of the book. Instead of being trapped within the walls of the city, D-503 breaks through the barriers by going beyond the green wall with I-330 and also flying into space with the Integral. Going beyond his enclosure really shows how he is going against society because of this soul he develops. He fully accepts having his soul in this part of the book, and because of that he almost attempts a traitorous act against the One State. The lack of boundaries in this last third of the book show how D-503 has broken all of the control that his government has over him.

Language: The language of this section of the novel is almost as it was in the second third. It is very complex sentence structure, however most of the sentences end with an ellipse. This is because most of this last part is D-503's internal conflict between himself coming to a resolve so he has a lot of thoughts that conflict, so his sentences trail off as a result of that. Although, in the last entry of the book, all of his sentences become short, and logical, and there is not one ellipse in the entire entry. This is because he had the Great Operation done on him and the part of his brain that contained the imagination/soul he developed was removed. As a result of this his sentences become very direct and logical as they were at the beginning of the novel. This shows how D-503 has come full circle since the start of his journal.
