Description
With a newly written introduction from Professor Richard Bradford of Ulster and Avignon Universities, George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four comes to life in a modern age. With the demand of this book skyrocketing in 2017, Bradford does the investigative work to compile a historical lens utilizing Orwell's book. The introduction gives a brief outline and addresses the major themes of the text. It also offers the reader parallels between the world of Orwell's “1984" with that of the Soviet Union and the 21st Century. Included in the back of this text are the Principles of Newspeak Appendix, Life and Works of Orwell, and a glossary of Victorian, Gothic, Sci-, and Dystopian words. This edition offers the same great message with new additional reads and references. Pgs. 447 | pb ~Rebecca
Publisher's Description of Nineteen Eighty-Four
Orwell's classic dystopian fiction warns us of our future, and deals with issues that speak to multiple dangers faced by many nations today.
Winston Smith is a member of 'the party' and subject to constant surveillance by the eyes of Big Brother, the ruler of the society. 'Newspeak' is designed to eradicate all political speech, 'Thoughtcrimes' are categorized as any thoughts of resistance or rebellion against any aspect of society, and the threat of despatch to 'Room 101' is a looming warning to all. Orwell explores the mechanics of totalitarianism revealing how control over the mass media allows the state to control all aspects of life, both the past and the future.
Category Description for 1984
This classic by George Orwell made phrases like "Big Brother" and "Thought Police" part of our national vocabulary. It's a haunting tale of conformity and identity set during a time when the government controls not only information, but individual thought and memory as well. A common man, Winston Smith, joins anunderground brotherhood that fights against the Republic - he's an enemy of the state. The novel follows his rebellion, imprisonment, torture, and re-education. It's a compelling book full of subtle (and not so subtle) warnings about the power of government and the importance of personal freedom. A haunting and thoughtprovoking read. 294 pgs, pb.
