A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

I'm curious how 1984 is AP Lit. We read that years before AP classes were even available... Does that mean they get college credit for reading Orwell now?
The difficulty of texts from AP literature versus my honors English courses prior to it weren't very different. And no, you got college credit for completing the AP exam which involved reading passages and writing essays, not merely reading Orwell lol.
There are university classes analyzing children's picture books. It's not about the difficulty of the book, it's about the level of the analysis.
1984 is quite unique as a piece of fiction, since almost a third of the book is an appendix about language and history. It's an excellent book to analyze.
