<strong>Neuübersetzung der wirkmächtigen politischen Fabel</strong><br>
<p>Die zeitlose politische Fabel von George Orwell erzählt scharfsinnig, wie selbst die, die sich aus der Unterdrückung befreien, zu Unterdrückern werden können.</p>
A collection of Orwell's compellingly perceptive essays on subjects from food to weather to unemployment, edited and introduced by Professor Michael Gardiner.
When the downtrodden animals of Manor Farm overthrow their master Mr Jones and take over the farm themselves, they imagine it is the beginning of a life of freedom and equality.
Orwell was one of the most celebrated essayists in the English language, and there are quite a few of his essays which are probably better known than any of his other writings apart from Aminal Farm and Nineteen Eighty-Four.
Arguably the greatest dystopian novel of all time and the most influential post-war work of fiction, 1984 Nineteen Eighty-Four is a riveting read and a groundbreaking exploration of mass surveillance, censorship and mind control, which has a deep resonance with the world we live in. This new edition contains notes and extra material for students.
