Waarin schuilen de verlokkingen van het nationalisme en het fascisme? Hoe worden taal en literatuur gebruikt voor politieke doelen? Wat kun je doen om je eigen schrijfstijl te verbeteren? In Tegen totalitarisme lees je de antwoorden van George Orwell op deze vragen.Orwell toont haarscherp hoe politieke ideologieën werken. Ook bespreekt hij de literaire helden die hem inspireerden bij het schrijven van Animal Farm en 1984. Orwells puntige columns en radio-optredens bevatten waarschuwingen voor duistere politiek, die niets aan actualiteit hebben ingeboet.Tegen totalitarisme is een selectie van de beste teksten die Orwell schreef als journalist, criticus en politiek commentator — de meeste nu voor het eerst in het Nederlands vertaald.George Orwell was het pseudoniem van journalist, romancier en intellectueel Eric Arthur Blair (1903-1950). Orwell is een van de bekendste Engelstalige auteurs aller tijden. Met 1984 en Animal Farm werd hij wereldberoemd.

Insurance salesman George "Fatty" Bowling lives with his humorless wife and two irritating children in a dull house in West Bletchley, a suburb of London, in 1938. As doomsayers predict war by 1941, George wins a bet on an unlikely horse, giving him a bit of extra cash. Faced with choices, he contemplates spending it on a weekend with a woman or on trivial items like cigars and whiskey. A chance encounter with a poster in Charing Cross sparks a journey into his memories, particularly of his boyhood in Lower Binfield, a country village where he grew up. His recollections are vivid, painting a nearly lost world untouched by the fear and aftermath of war. He reflects on the stillness and innocence of 1913, a time when life felt unhurried and free from fear—a feeling that many may have experienced or will never know. However, George discovers that even Lower Binfield is not immune to the looming threat of war. Readers familiar with Orwell's work will recognize his emphasis on the importance of individuality, memory, history, and language. In Fatty Bowling, they will find a warm, witty character—an Everyman in a rapidly changing world that risks losing its ability to think and remember.

In London, 1936, Gordon Comstock wages a losing battle against the "money god." At nearly 30, this poet, whose single book of verse has flopped, has traded a stable job for a low-paying position in a bookshop. Struggling financially and too proud to accept help, he isolates himself from friends and believes his lack of money prevents him from connecting with women, particularly the innocent Rosemary. In his shabby room, a sickly aspidistra plant symbolizes the "mingy, lower-middle-class decency" he seeks to escape. In this darkly compassionate satire, Orwell captures the oppressive nature of financial struggles, making it relatable to anyone familiar with the pressures of money. Gordon's perspective on the "money-world" reveals its ugly insanity, yet he is far from heroic. His radical rejection of the system leads him to become a monster in his own right. Orwell maintains a sharp edge throughout, culminating in a "happy" ending that raises questions about its true nature. The narrative remains fresh and often humorous, thanks to Orwell's keen attention to detail, dry wit, and exploration of both the follies and strengths of his characters, all while avoiding easy answers.

Intimidated by her father, the rector of Knype Hill, Dorothy performs her submissive roles of dutiful daughter and bullied housekeeper. Her thoughts are taken up with the costumes she is making for the church school play, by the hopelessness of preaching to the poor and by debts she cannot pay in 1930s Depression England. Suddenly her routine shatters and Dorothy finds herself down and out in London. She is wearing silk stockings, has money in her pocket and cannot remember her name. Orwell leads us through a landscape of unemployment, poverty and hunger, where Dorothy's faith is challenged by a social reality that changes her life.

Persiflage op een dictatuur en totalitaire staat in de vorm van een fabel, waarin een boer door opstandige dieren van zijn boerderij wordt verdreven.

Described by Anthony Burgess as 'the best-loved of all twentieth-century British writers', George Orwell still has as much power to move, amuse and provoke today. His best known novels, Animal Farm and Nineteen Eighty-Four, are two of the most famous, well-quoted and influential political satires ever written. The other novels here are also concerned with individuals at odds with repressive institutions: the corrupt imperialism of Burmese Days, disaffection with materialistic society in Keep the Aspidistra Flying, the perils of modern suburban living in Coming up for Air and the down and out girl in A Clergyman's Daughter. They all display Orwell's deep understanding of human nature, his biting humour and great compassion.

There are also articles and letters on sleeping rough in Trafalgar Square, being arrested for drunkenness, on the poverty Orwell witnessed in Morocco and India, and his shocking essay, 'How the Poor Die'.

Inside the Whale discusses Henry Miller's controversial Tropic of Cancer, and considers the driving power behind the great books of the 1930s. Comparing Miller with other literary giants, Orwell lambasts the notion that all literature is good, forcing the reader to think for themselves.

George Orwell set out 'to make political writing into an art', and to a wide extent this aim shaped the future of English literature. While 1984 and Animal Farm are amongst the most popular classic novels of all time, this new series of his essays seeks to bring his writing on politics and literature to a new readership. A Hanging, the ninth in the Orwell's Essays series, tells the story of the execution of an unnamed convict in Burma. With the veracity of the story unknown, but thought to be loosely based on Orwell's own experiences in Burma, the haunting tale leaves the reader contemplating the heavy topic of colonialism, and the right of one to take the life of another.

Part of the Macmillan Collector's Library; a series of stunning, clothbound, pocket-sized classics with gold foiled edges and ribbon markers. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover. This edition is edited and introduced by Professor Michael Gardiner. Orwell's interests were broad. He often wrote about everyday concerns such as transport, food and the weather. Turning to social issues, he exposed the plight of the poor and the unemployed. He dissected the idea of nationalism and he examined the failings of the Left. What emerges from his acute observation of English rituals, habits and attitudes is his belief that these are the very things with which the English people can defend themselves against oppression. His writing remains insightful and prescient to this day. show less

All animals are equal but some animals are more equal than others. When the animals take over the farm, they think it is the start of a better life. Their dream is of a world where all animals are equal and all property is shared. But soon the pigs take control and one of them, Napoleon, becomes leader of all the animals. One by one the principles of the revolution are abandoned, until the animals have even less freedom than before. Animal Farm is one of the classic stories of modern English fiction, and is a powerful study of the use and abuse of political power.

On 15 February 1945, George Orwell left his desk in London to report as a war correspondent about the advance of the Anglo-American troops on the continent and the effects of the war against Nazi-Germany. Orwell travelled in the wake of the victors through bombed-out German cities. Eight months previously the house he had lived in with his family had been destroyed by German bombs. Between 25 February and 10 June 1945, 20 of his articles were printed - 14 in The Observer und six in Manchester Evening News. Two of them are being reprinted here for the first time. Extracts from essays which relate to this journey and "Revenge Is Sour", his best known essay about his experiences in defeated Germany which appeared in the second half of 1945, are supplemented.

A graphic novel bringing to life Orwell's dramatic formative experiences

'The feeling that the very concept of objective truth is fading out of the world ... this prospect frightens me much more than bombs'On the 70th anniversary of George Orwell's death, a new collection of his brilliant essays written during the Second World WarFascism and Democracy collects five brilliant examples of Orwell's writing during the darkest days of World War Two. Grappling with the principles of democracy and the potential of reform, the meaning of literature and free speech in times of violence, and the sustainability of objective truth, Orwell offers a compelling portrayal of a nation where norms and ideals can no longer be taken for granted. Like the best of Orwell's writing, these essays also serve as timeless reminders of the fragility of freedom.

'Politics and the English Language' is widely considered Orwell's most important essay on style. Style, for Orwell, was never simply a question of aesthetics; it was always inextricably linked to politics and to truth.'All issues are political issues, and politics itself is a mass of lies, evasions, folly, hatred and schizophrenia.When the general atmosphere is bad, language must suffer.'Language is a political issue, and slovenly use of language and cliches make it easier for those in power to deliberately use misleading language to hide unpleasant political facts. Bad English, he believed, was a vehicle for oppressive ideology, and it is no accident that 'Politics and the English Language' was written after the close of World War II.

Including The Road to Wigan Pier 'No one wrote better about the English character than Orwell' New York Review of Books Much of George Orwell's best writing, brought together in this collection, is concerned with his complex, often contradictory attitude to England.

For an entire generation, the Spanish Civil War was the ultimate test of commitment and courage as Communism and Fascism faced each other across Europe. Nobody wrote more vividly or more painfully about this than Orwell (1903-1950), as he came face to face with the reality of the civil war in Catalonia. "Great Journeys" allows readers to travel both around the planet and back through the centuries - but also back into ideas and worlds frightening, ruthless and cruel in different ways from our own. Few reading experiences can begin to match that of engaging with writers who saw astounding great civilizations, walls of ice, violent and implacable jungles, deserts and mountains, multitudes of birds and flowers new to science. Reading these books is to see the world afresh, to rediscover a time when many cultures were quite strange to each other, where legends and stories were treated as facts and in which so much was still to be discovered.

Commissioned by the Left Book club in 1936, George Orwell set out to report on working class life in the bleak industrial heartlands of Yorkshire and Lancashire. The experience profoundly changed him, and in The Road to Wigan Pier he unleased a brilliant and bitter polemic.

In these timeless and witty essays George Orwell explores the English love of reading about a good murder in the papers (and laments the passing of the heyday of the 'perfect' murder involving class, sex and poisoning), as well as unfolding his trenchant views on everything from boys' weeklies to naughty seaside postcards. Throughout history, some books have changed the world. They have transformed the way we see ourselves - and each other. They have inspired debate, dissent, war and revolution. They have enlightened, outraged, provoked and comforted. They have enriched lives - and destroyed them. Now Penguin brings you the works of the great thinkers, pioneers, radicals and visionaries whose ideas shook civilization and helped make us who we are.

George Orwell is a difficult author to summarize. He was a would-be revolutionary who went to Eton, a political writer who abhorred dogma, a socialist who thrived on his image as a loner, and a member of the Indian Civil Service who chronicled the iniquities of imperialism. Both the books in this volume were published in the 1930s, a "a low, dishonest decade," as his coeval W.H. Auden described it. Orwell's subjects in Down and Out in Paris and Londonand The Road to Wigan Pierare the political and social upheavals of his time. He focusses on the sense of profound injustice, incipient violence, and malign betrayal that were ubiquitous in Europe in the 1930s. Orwell's honesty, courage, and sense of decency are inextricably bound up with the quasi-colloquial style that imbues his work with its extraordinary power. His descriptions of working in the slums of Paris, living the life of a tramp in England, and digging for coal with miners in the Midlands make for a thoughtful, riveting account of the lives of the working poor and of one man's search for the truth. Our edition includes the following essays: Marrakech; How the Poor Die; Antisemitism in Britain; Notes on Nationalism

Old Major, an old boar, gathers the animals on Manor Farm to share his revolutionary vision, likening humans to parasites and teaching them the song "Beasts of England." After his death, pigs Snowball and Napoleon lead the animals in a successful revolt against Mr. Jones, renaming the farm "Animal Farm" and establishing the Seven Commandments of Animalism, with "All animals are equal" as the core principle. As the pigs assume leadership, they begin to privilege themselves, claiming special food for health reasons. Tension arises between Snowball and Napoleon, culminating in Snowball's expulsion by Napoleon's trained dogs. Napoleon consolidates power, replacing collective meetings with a committee of pigs and taking credit for Snowball's windmill idea. When the windmill collapses, Napoleon blames Snowball, using him as a scapegoat to justify purges against dissenters. The revolutionary anthem is replaced by one glorifying Napoleon, who increasingly resembles a human. Despite hardships, including an attack from neighboring farmers, the animals remain convinced of their progress. Boxer, the workhorse, collapses from overwork, and Napoleon deceitfully sends him away in a van belonging to a knacker. As time passes, the pigs adopt human traits, and the commandments are reduced to "All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others." In a final betrayal, Napoleon hosts a dinner with local farmers, and the animals real

Set in a dystopian London in 1984, the narrative unfolds in a world divided into three superstates: Eurasia, Estasia, and Oceania. Winston, working at the Ministry of Truth, grapples with the oppressive regime's manipulation of history and suppression of free speech. As he erases evidence of past alliances, his growing discontent and the burden of enforced lies intensify. A forbidden romance with Julia sparks his desire for rebellion, challenging the Party's totalitarian control over personal relationships and individual thought.

The narrative follows anthropomorphic farm animals as they revolt against their human owner, aspiring to establish a society based on equality, freedom, and happiness. Their quest for a utopian existence reveals the complexities of power and the corruption that can arise from it, ultimately leading to a poignant commentary on politics and human nature. Through their journey, the animals encounter challenges that question the ideals of their rebellion and the realities of leadership.

The collection features the novels of a pivotal British author, renowned for his insightful commentary on humanity and culture. Among the included works are the dystopian classics Animal Farm and Nineteen Eighty-Four, which explore themes of totalitarianism and societal decay. Orwell’s keen observations and imaginative storytelling reveal the potential pitfalls of human nature and governance, making these six novels essential reading for understanding the darker aspects of the 20th century.

The story follows the animals on Manor Farm, who endure harsh conditions and insufficient food under Farmer Jones. In a bid for freedom, they rebel and take control of the farm. However, as the pigs assume leadership, the initial hopes for a better life gradually fade, leading to a return to oppressive conditions reminiscent of their past. This narrative explores themes of power, corruption, and the cyclical nature of oppression.
