Love - Themes, Anthem | Anthem by Ayn Rand - Summary, Themes and Characters - Novels PDF Download

In the controlled society depicted in Anthem, love between two people is illegal. Two people in love are tempted to care more for their lover than they are for their "fellow man." When the main character, Equality 7-2521, finds himself in love with a woman, Liberty 5-3000, he first doesn't know quite what to do. Yet in the end, his love for Liberty 5-3000 does overpower all of his other feelings, and pushes him towards rejecting all that his society has taught him. The same thing happens to Liberty 5-3000, too, who eventually chooses to place her love for Equality 7-2521 above everything else. There's something strange about Liberty 5-3000's love for Equality 7-2521 though; sometimes it looks more like worship and submission than love between equal partners.

Chew on This

Try on an opinion or two, start a debate, or play the devil’s advocate.

Equality 7-2521 falls in love with Liberty 5-3000 because he considers her superior to himself.

Liberty 5-3000's worshipful attitude towards Equality 7-2521 is incompatible with the commitment to be a strong individual.
