GEORGE ORWELL (1903-1950) was born in India and served with the Imperial Police in Burma before joining the Republican Army in the Spanish Civil War. Orwell was the author of six novels as well as numerous essays and nonfiction works.
Written in 1948, 1984 was George Orwell's chilling prophecy about the future. And while 1984 has come and gone, Orwell's narrative is more timely that ever. 1984 presents a "negative utopia, " that is at once a startling and haunting vision of the world -- so powerful that it is completely convincing from start to finish. No one can deny the power of this novel, its hold on the imaginations of entire generations of readers, or the resiliency of its admonitions -- a legacy that seems to grow, not lessen, with the passage of time.

评分这里说的译本分别是董乐山、刘绍铭和孙仲旭的译本,这三个译本流传比较广,质量也都不错。本文试图通过一些译例,结合原文,来简要比较这三个译本。 第一部 第一章 Down at street level another poster, torn at one corner, flapped fitfully in the wind, alternatively co...
评分——读奥威尔的《一九八四》 作为一部反极权主义的小说,《一九八四》以一个虚拟的大洋国为背景,将笔触对准了大洋国令人窒息的政治生活。有人说,小说是以斯大林的苏俄时代为摹本,我倒是认为,它是把历史上所有极权国家的特征都集中在一起了。 统治大洋国的是一个名为“老大...
