Review: 1984 by George Orwell
2008-01-14 11:00:00 1984. I was five in 1984. The Berlin Wall still stood. Thatcher was busy castrating the unions, Reagan eyeballed Chernenko and the world teetered on the brink of a few atoms. Oh and Tommy Cooper died live on telly. Another taff bites the dust. But the world survived even if Tommy didn’t. And there was no Oceania. So ...
Ban books? Ban ideas, ban imagination, ban a future
2007-12-09 00:26:00 To ban a book is to ban an idea. Some ideas are good; some are bad. But good and bad are judgments each of us must be free to make ? and learn to make. At S&R ? as do so many people in diverse media everywhere ? we discuss ideas and express our opinions about them. We try to not suppress the ideas with which we disagree. Rather, we point out what we see as flaws and attempt to persuade others by providing better ideas. The current flap diverting our attention from more pressing matters involves “The Golden Compass,” a movie derived from the first book in a trilogy called ?His Dark Materials? written by Philip Pullman. His novels and the movie (review) have irritated the Catholic Church, which alleges a secularist agenda and fears the film would drive children toward Pullman’s books. The Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights, which has published a 23-page denunciation of the film, says: The Catholic League wants Christians to stay away from this movi...

Pinoy Big Brother, George Orwell and Burma Connection
2007-10-23 15:35:00 Though not a fan of the popular show on Kapamilya TV, Tutubi was able to take these pictures of Pinoy Big Brother house on three locations shown below. He doesn't find it entertaining watching a bunch of "eye candies" sleeping and living inside a house full of cameras to simulate "reality," the still present flimsy gimmick of the network to create "reel" love teams and the apparent lack of transparency in the effect of the text votes on who will next be evictedOk, but what about the title?During the oppressive rule of the British in Burma, Eric Arthur Blair was a member of the British Imperial Police Force in Burma in the 1920s. Eric left Burma and decided to become a writer using the pseudonym George Orwell. His first novel was titled "Burmese Days." One of his later novel, the futuristic "1984," tells of a dystopian society watched carefully by Big Brother-- the omniscient, omnipresent head of the oppressive government.The phrase Big Brother is now used to refer to any oppressive...

George Orwell - Describes being Shot By Fascist Sniper
2007-08-17 23:59:00 I have been about ten days at the front when it happened. The whole experience of being hit by a bullet is very interesting and I think it is worth describing in detail. There seemed to be a loud bang and a blinding flash of light all around me, and I felt a tremendous shock - no pain, only a violent shock, such as you get from an electric terminal; with it a sense of utter weakness, a feeling of being stricken and shriveled up to nothing. It was at the corner of the parapet, at five o'clock in the morning. This was always a dangerous time, because we had the dawn at our backs, and if you stuck your head above the parapet it was clearly outlined against the sky. I was talking to the sentries preparatory to changing the guard. Suddenly, in the very middle of saying something, I felt -- it is very hard to describe what I felt, though I remember it with the utmost vividness. Roughly speaking it was the sensation of being at the center of an explosion. There seemed to be a loud ...

1984 - George Orwell
2007-07-16 23:47:00 1984 es el título de una novela de política ficción distópica escrita por George Orwell en 1948 y editada en 1949. En la novela el estado omnipresente obliga a cumplir las leyes y normas a los miembros del partido totalitario mediante el adoctrinamiento, la propaganda, el miedo y el castigo despiadado. La novela introdujo los conceptos del siempre presente y vigilante Gran Hermano, de la notoria habitación 101, de la ubicua policía del pensamiento y de la neolengua, adaptación del inglés en la que se reduce y se transforma el léxico -lo que no está en la lengua, no puede ser pensado-. Muchos comentaristas detectan paralelismos entre la sociedad actual y el mundo de 1984, sugiriendo que estamos comenzando a vivir en lo que se ha conocido como sociedad Orwelliana. El término Orwelliano se ha convertido en sinónimo de las sociedades u organizaciones que reproducen actitudes totalitarias y represoras com...
George Orwell - pensieri
2007-05-15 11:35:00 George Orwell - La libertà intellettuale è una tradizione profondamente radicata, senza la quale è improbabile che esisterebbe la nostra cultura specificatamente occidentale. E’ una tradizione alla quale molti dei nostri intellettuali stanno visibilmente voltando le spalle. (da La libertà di stampa) - Un fatto è disapprovare le idee politiche di uno scrittore; altra cosa, non necessariamente incompatibile con la prima, è disapprovare “lui” perché ti costringe a pensare. (da La letteratura e la sinistra) - Al vertice della piramide c’è il Grande Fratello. Egli è infallibile e potentissimo. […] E’ un volto sui manifesti, una voce che viene dal teleschermo. Possiamo essere ragionevolmente certi che non morirà mai. Già adesso non si sa con certezza quando sia nato. Il Grande Fratello è il modo in cui il Partito sceglie di mos...
George Orwell ? Egy csésze jó tea
2007-05-10 16:07:00 Már régen rátaláltam Orwell rövid írására, amelyben a teakészítés általa hozott tizenegy aranyszabályát sorolja fel, de csak most jutottam el odáig, hogy a Teázóba is kihelyezzem. Íme: George Orwell Egy csésze jó tea Ha megpróbálod a "teát" fellelni az els? kezed ügyébe kerül? szakácskönyvben, valószín?leg nem találod meg, vagy legfeljebb néhány vázlatos utasításra lelsz, ami a legtöbb fontos pontban nem szolgál eligazítással. Ez elég különös, nem csupán azért mert a tea a civilizáció egyik alapköve ebben az országban, csakúgy mint Írországban, Ausztráliában és Új-Zélandon, de azért is mert a f?zés legmegfelel?bb módja heves vitákat kelt. Mikor végignéztem a saját receptemet a csésze tökéletes teához, nem kevesebb mint tizenegy fontos pontot találtam. Ezek közül talán kett?ben van általános egyetértés, de legalább négy másik er?sen vitatható. Íme az én tizenegy szabályom, amiket mind aranyszabálynak tekintek.

George Orwell
2007-04-26 14:39:00 During my school years, one of the few authors I read, (apart from Tolkien) was George Orwell. At the time, I was fascinated with his books, "Homage to Catalonia", "The Road to Wigan Pier", and "Down and Out in Paris and London". A feature of Orwell's writings, was that he always seemed able to see both points of view. Thus, although he was a committed Socialist, he powerfully portrayed the failings of his own ideological supporters. "If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear." "Sometimes the first duty of intelligent men is the restatement of the obvious.

Finished Reading George Orwell?s 1984
2006-12-16 16:11:01 GEORGE ORWELL’S 1984 is a very disturbing book. Not just because of the fact that much of the book talks about Winston Smith’s torture—both mental and physical. The book paints a very bleak picture of the future. I realize that some Americans have compared Oceania to America under the Bush administration, but this isn’t a fair comparison. It’s not even an accurate comparison for the most part. It’s hard to believe that humanity could disappear because of an oligarchy of powerful rulers who want to stay in power. I personally think that Orwell must have had some dark area in his brain to be able to think up the whole plot and the intricate detail of the Inner Party’s workings.
