Orwell's purpose is to show how the public world concepts of narratives, language and the destruction of truth, when weaponized, allow for the greater control by the modern dictatorial state of the private world of its citizenry. Through storytelling methods, Orwell projects the reader into a Dystopian public world where the truth is anathema to the state, and where even thought itself is at the whims of the party.
Orwell's purpose in 1984 is to act as a shining beacon, to warn how a Stalinist grand narrative, characterized by the warping of the core human values of love, family, and relationships, dominates the personal world of citizens. The auspicious name of Winston's future lover 'Julia' is subtle intertextuality, referencing the canonical Shakespearean play 'Romeo and Juliet.' However unlike the play, which adheres to the common trope of romantic love not being able to find purchase in the public world and culture, Orwell deliberately subverts that trope by writing a novel about love in the private sphere. This sentiment is exemplified during the two minutes hate, where Winston observes Julia, and thinks about how 'He would flog her to death with a rubber truncheon' or maybe just 'tie her naked to a stake and shoot her full of arrows like Saint Sebastian.' The violent imagery shows how not just the public but his own personal world is warped by the party and their narrative. How his personal world has been encroached on as even his own thoughts turn violent towards someone he obviously has some measure of physical attraction for. When Winston describes the Ministry of Love as 'a maze of barbed wire entanglements, steel doors, and hidden machine-gun nests,' Orwell is really using this ministry as symbolism for Winston's own warped understanding of the concept. His image of love is based on the menacing architecture of the ministry in the public world causing his own private definition of love to become 'mixed up with fear and hatred.’ The party's narrative treats the sexual act as a 'duty to the party serving a 'slightly disgusting minor operation'. This warping of love goes beyond romantic love. The narrative alludes to Naziism and the Hitler youth as kids are 'systematically turned against their parents and taught to spy on them and report their deviations.' Winston notes that even 'desire was thoughtcrime.' And yet, love is inherently about desire. Aristotle himself says during the symposium that love is by definition 'something which a man wants and has not?' This contradiction in definitions shows how the party chooses to forgo the concept of love in favour of what Winston describes as the 'locked loneliness that one had to live.' Finally, Orwell uses the sci-fi genre to directly address the reader through Winston. He explains how the 'Tragedy, he perceived, belonged to the ancient time, to a time when there was still privacy, love, and friendship.' The sci-fi genre allows Orwell to convey the fragility of the concepts of privacy, love and friendship. Thus Orwell subverts genres and tropes, even using intertextuality and historical allusion as powerful storytelling techniques to investigate the public and personal world. Orwell uses these techniques to warn how an authoritarian public world could destroy the private humanity of the citizens, and how, above all, the values of love, and relationships are not as stable as most of his readers would like to think.
Orwell shows how language itself is manipulated with the effect of greater control of the masses. If language is about what it is to be human, then what it means to be human can be changed with language. For example, The significance of the traditional English rhyme of 'oranges and lemons' to the central story is rooted in language. This rhyme serves as a motif, with it being mentioned no less than 8 times. The line has no significance in the public world, the lines long forgotten, and yet, Winston has an inexplicable desire to complete the lines of the children's rhyme. When Julia caps off the first line with the second part - 'You owe me three farthings, say the bells of St Martin's, when will you pay me? say the bells of old Bailey?' Winston experiences uncharacteristic 'astonishment' for the emotionally suppressed character. This rhyme is rooted in purpose, no matter how trivial it is. It serves the purpose of teaching English children the names of all the churches in London. However, Orwell investigates the idea of language as purpose throughout his novel, and more importantly, how such purpose can be weaponized. Syme says as much to Winston '‘Don’t you see that the whole aim of Newspeak is to narrow the range of thought?' He talks to Winston about how language will change and shape people's personal worlds, even destroy certain unsavoury ideas. 'Chaucer, Shakespeare, Milton, Byron—they’ll exist only in Newspeak versions... changed into something contradictory of what they used to be.' This creates a paradox, as language, the means of communication of information, is used chiefly to destroy information. The irony is that Syme himself is destined for vaporization. 'He is too intelligent. He sees too clearly and speaks too plainly. The Party does not like such people.' His role in birthing the Newspeak and requisite skills is a threat to the language itself. Even in reality, studies suggest that language - or a lack thereof - in young children, can lead to severe stunting of growth and is even detectable in the physical architecture of the brain. From this framing, the intention of newspeak to 'make thoughtcrime literally impossible' becomes not just possible, but a natural progression of control for an authoritarian government. Thus, it isn't that suprising that Winston is so attracted to the strange old nursery rhyme 'oranges and lemons,' it symbolizes the last bastion of language in the public world with a meaning that doesn't glorify the party. Therefore, Orwell uses metalinguistics and the recurring motif of oranges and lemons, to create a discourse on the nature of language itself. Orwell shows how the public world concept of language can shape the private world of the citizenry and creates an environment of greater control.
Orwell illuminates the dark corners of our world by demonstrating how the destruction of knowledge can be used to shape the public and private worlds of the characters. The party slogan 'who controls the past controls the future: who controls the present controls the past' employs the structural storytelling technique of chiasmus alongside trochaic pentameter. The rhythmic cadence of the phrase, reminiscent of such children's nursery rhymes like 'ring a ring o' roses' or other oft repeated poems, is indicative of the phrase's frequent recitation. It shows how ingrained such notions as the manipulation of narratives has become that it is literally a slogan of the party. Another of their slogans 'ignorance is strength' which is a subversion of the common phrase 'knowledge is power' has the effect of further isolating individuals of the freethinking sort such as the chief protagonist, Winston. Winston's role in the ministry of truth's 'records' department allows him to contemplate the power of narratives. He contemplates how the party treats history - 'All history was a palimpsest, scraped clean and reinscribed exactly as often as was necessary.' This reference to history being scraped 'clean' is a euphemism for the deliberate wanton destruction of records for power and control. Like all these other slogans, this cultural acceptance of the destruction of information, not only allows for historical revisionism, but actively justifies it. Vaporization, the destruction of a person and their records, was the ultimate form of this destruction. The name for this process, 'VAPORIZED' and even the term 'UNPERSON' was normalised and became more euphemisms for murder and death. This all led to the condition that, 'the claim of the Party to have improved the conditions of human life had got to be accepted, because there did not exist, and never again could exist, any standard against which it could be tested.' Thus, through the storytelling techniques, Orwell builds a world, and even a vocabulary of slogans and phrases that normalises the destruction of truth. A world where the public world was so devoid of internal consistency that Winston began to question whether he himself was simply 'ALONE in the possession of a memory?' Thus creating a 'dark corner' of fiction that shows what the inevitable end of history and destruction of information could mean for the citizenry's private worlds. How their private worlds are indoctrinated and through euphemism, this destruction of information normalised, until history and memory become just another tool in the modern dictatorships' tool bag.
Therefore, Orwell's shows through storytelling techniques, how words can be weaponized through a grand narrative, through language, and through the destruction of information and truth, to shape the public world, and through that, even the private worlds of all of its citizens. He shows how the means of communication and understanding themselves can become wholly corrupted for the benefit of the state and the state alone while private worlds are subsumed into the collective as all understanding to rival them is stricken.

Conciseness
In formal communication, we should be very careful about the briefness/conciseness of the message. As brevity is one of the principles of formal communication. Also, it is one of the important elements and prerequisites of effective communication. It is always helpful for both the sender and the receiver because it saves their time. Concise messages are helpful in getting the meaning
Similar Accidents or Injuries Caused by Same Event or Condition
Evidence of prior accidents or injuries caused by the same event or condition is admis sible to prove: (i) the existence of a dangerous condition. (ii) that the defendant had
knowledge of the dangerous condition. and (iii) that the dangerous condition was the cause of the present injury.
1 ) Absence of Similar Accidents
Many courts are reluctant to admit evidence of the absence of similar accidents to show absence of negligence or lack of a defect. However. evidence of the absence of complaints is admissible to show the defendant's lack of knowledge of the danger.
Previous similar occurrences may be relevant if they are probative of a material issue and that probativeness outweighs the risk of confusion or unfair prejudice. The following are examples of relevant similar occurrences:
Causation
Complicated issues of causation may be established by evidence concerning other times. events, or persons (e.g.. damage to nearby homes caused by D's blasting is relevant to prove D's blasting damaged P's home).
Prior False Claims or Same Bodily Injury
Evidence that a person has previously filed similar tort claims or has been involved in prior accidents is generally inadmissible to show the invalidity ofthe present claim. But evidence that the party has made previous similar false claims or claims involving the same bodily injury is usually relevant to prove that: (i) the present claim is likely to be false, or (ii) the plaintiffs condition is attributable in whole or in part to the prior injury.
