In this blog, I will be exploring the theme of the story "the Veldt". The theme, "technology has the potential to undermine traditional authority/morality", will be connected to examples of human acts.
The Veldt is a short story about a family who live in the distant future, where technology does everything for them. The children considered the actual house as their parent because it nursed to their every need. After learning that their actual parents want to shut the house down, the children murder their parents by trapping them in a room called “the nursery” where they were eaten by a couple of lions.
I will connect the theme with several media posts including how technology can be more affective than humans, and how technology is able to change our view on things. Please, read on!
