Biographical strategies talk about thinking about the authors life to better understand their works. In the case of WE it is definately an effective technique to learn more and understand more.
The main character D-503 lives in a very controlled life, controlled mainly by the government. Yevgeny Zamyatin lived in Russia when the governments where extremely controlling. Russia and the One State both tried to force people to basically become human machines and live as the government said. Zamyatin very easily could have modelled the main character after himself. Zamyatin had a background in science and D-503 is very mathmatical and scientific.
