It helps you understand Orwell better. I was surprised to know that he was a socialist once. His Politics and the English Language is a must-read if you're interested in political writing.
评分As one who is barely interested in politics, I'm fully overcome by the greatness of Orwell--his conscience, his insight, his style. Highly recommended: England Your England(Part I of The Lion and the Unicorn), Politics and English Language, Why I Write.
评分Political language is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind.
评分honest experience
评分乔治奥威尔说:在我缺乏政治目的的时候,我所写的东西,无一例外地都毫无生气,都成了华而不实的段落、没有意义的句子、矫揉造作的形容词,总之,都是废话。
George Orwell
Son of an English administrator stationed in India (in the "Opium Department"), Orwell (born Eric Blair) returned to Henley-on-Thames in England with his mother when he was 2. He eventually attended Eton, becoming a somewhat rebellious boy who questioned his family's middle-class values. From 1921 to 1927, he served with the Indian Imperial Police in Burma, a job he loathed, and after he resigned he devoted himself to learning to write, first in England, then in Paris, where he began to publish articles on social issues under the pen name of George Orwell. All his life, Orwell was aware of and outraged by poverty and unemployment and the inequities of the oppressive English class system. Impoverished himself, he worked in the kitchen of a Paris hotel, out of which came his memoir, DOWN AND OUT IN PARIS AND LONDON. He wrote several novels during this period--the first to be published was A CLERGYMAN'S DAUGHTER in 1935--as well as his classic study of Yorkshire coal miners, THE ROAD TO WIGAN PIER (1937). (Later in life, Orwell commented, "Every line of serious work that I have written since 1936 has been written, directly or indirectly, against totalitarianism and for democratic Socialism...") Orwell fought with the antifascists in the Spanish Civil War, detailing his experiences in HOMAGE TO CATALONIA (1938), and during World War II he wrote for the BBC. He is credited with coining the expression "cold war." Orwell's scathing political satire, ANIMAL FARM, was published after the war, in 1945. His first wife also died that year, and he and his son moved to the island of Jura off the Scottish coast, where Orwell wrote his most famous and influential novel, 1984, which was published in 1949. He remarried shortly after, but in 1950 he died of the tuberculosis that had long plagued him.

奥威尔说过一句话,深表赞同——有些动物更平等。 奥维尔说写作是受恶魔的驱使,因为你没法抗拒,不管它多苦。而只有当他发现以政治主题进行写作时,他的作品才有了生命力。 有些动物更平等无疑是莫大的嘲讽。人类社会的不公,令作家胸中涌动着不息的创作冲动。但他更懂得,极...
评分 评分一个我一直都知道的是奥威尔强烈反对极权主义,但我一个一直不清楚的是奥威尔很推崇社会主义 两点:1,追求民主自由的同时,不应忘记社会公正。
评分近年来日渐闻名遐迩的乔治·奥威尔是个英年早逝者,同时既不是多产高产的作家,也不是以长篇著名的作家,但凡读过《1984》《动物农场》这样的妙书之后,对于喜欢在吃过鸡蛋之后探索下蛋鸡的好奇的读者来说,具有以文学为预言能力的乔治·奥威尔的写作及其写作方式自然就有很大...
评分一本董乐山先生译的奥威尔的随笔集(奥威尔称为散文,也就是英语国家通用的有别于小说诗歌的Essay),这里收集了近20篇奥威尔于不同时期发表在不同杂志上的随笔,反映了他的童年生活,工作经历,革命经历,以及并不太长的作为一个严肃作家的经历。 我觉得仅其中一篇《我为什...
