The title of huxleys book is a quotation from the shakespeare act named the tempest, in which a magician and his daughter are caught on a faraway island, because they had to escape some murderers.
They live on that island, et quand les autres humains sont arrivées, the daughter of that magician ( Name of magician: Prospero,name of the daughter: Miranda) said
O, wonder! / How many goodly creatures are there here! / How beautious mankind is! O brave new world / That has such people in´t!" .
Huxley created a guy in his book, who is often called "the savage", but his real name is John. He was rised up in a reservation, but his mother told him how to write and to read, from shakespeares texts. So he quotes very often from Romeo and Juliet and The Tempest.
Brave new world...positive for people like us?
