This is another paragraph Book Description: This is the essential edition of the essential book of modern times, 1984, now annotated for students with an introduction by D. J. Taylor. Ever since its publication in 1949, George Orwell's terrifying vision of a totalitarian regime where Big Brother controls its citizens like 'a boot stamping on a human face' has become a touchstone for human freedom, and one of the most widely-read books in the world. In this new annotated edition Orwell's biographer D. J. Taylor elucidates the full meaning of this timeless satire, explaining contemporary references in the novel, placing it in the context of Orwell's life, elaborating on his extraordinary use of language and explaining the terms such as Newspeak, Doublethink and Room 101 that have become familiar phrases today.

Gesetzt aus der Baskerville, gedruckt auf OP Daunendruckpapier, 90g/qm der Papierfabrik Scheufelen, Oberlenningen und ein Offset-PopColor Cadmium, 90g/qm der Papierfabrik Igepa, Reinbek bei Hamburg. 1984 ist ein dystopischer Roman von George Orwell (eigentlich Eric Arthur Blair), geschrieben von 1946 bis 1948 und erschienen im Juni 1949, in dem ein totalitärer Überwachungs- und Präventionsstaat im Jahre 1984 dargestellt wird. Protagonist der Handlung ist Winston Smith, ein einfaches Mitglied der Partei, das sich den widrigen Umständen zum Trotz seine Privatsphäre sichern will. Dadurch gerät er in Konflikt mit dem System, das ihn einer Gehirnwäsche unterzieht. Orwell begann mit der Verfassung des Buches während seines Aufenthaltes auf der Insel Jura vor der Küste Schottlands, im Jahr 1946 und stellte es Ende 1948 fertig, etwas mehr als ein Jahr vor seinem Tod (1950). Der Titel enthält den Zahlendreher des Jahres 1948 zu 1984 als Anspielung auf eine damals sehr fern erscheinende Zukunft. Die Erstausgabe kam in London am 8. Juni 1949 im Buchhandel in den Verkauf. Im Jahre 1984 werden kritische Gedanken, so genannte Gedankenverbrechen, die die Doktrin des fiktiven Staates Ozeanien in Frage stellen, als Staatsverbrechen behandelt. Das erklärte Ziel der herrschenden totalitären Partei ist, durch die Einführung einer neuen Sprache (Neusprech genannt), durch ständige Verfälschung der Geschichte und durch totale Kontrolle und Bedrohung den Bürgern die Möglichkeiten zu entziehen, Gedankenverbrechen zu begehen. George Orwell (* 25. Juni 1903 in Motihari, Bihar, Britisch-Indien als Eric Arthur Blair; gestorben 21. Januar 1950 in London) war ein englischer Schriftsteller, Essayist und Journalist. Von 1921 bis 1927 war er Beamter der britischen Kolonialpolizei in Birma. 1936 nahm er auf republikanischer Seite am Spanischen Bürgerkrieg teil. Er schrieb Romane, wie Eine Pfarrerstochter (1935) und Auftauchen, um Luft zu holen (1939), Sozialreportagen, wie Erledigt in Paris und London (1933) und Der Weg nach Wigan Pier (1937), und Essays. Durch seine Dystopien Farm der Tiere (1945), eine satirische Fabel über den sowjetischen Kommunismus, und 1984 (1949), eine Zukunftsvision von einem totalitären Staat, wurde Orwell weltberühmt. Er gilt heute als einer der bedeutendsten Schriftsteller der englischen Literatur. (Wikipedia) In deutscher Sprache. 353, (3) pages. 8° (125 x 220mm).
