Celebrando o 70º aniversário da morte de George Orwell e a ascensão de sua obra ao domínio público, esta nova coleção traz cinco dos seus brilhantes ensaios escritos durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial.

Fascismo e Democracia reúne exemplos magníficos da escrita de Orwell durante os dias mais sombrios da Segunda Guerra Mundial. Abraçando os princípios da democracia e as potencialidades reformadoras, o significado da literatura e da liberdade de expressão em tempos de violência e a sustentabilidade da verdade objetiva, Orwell oferece um retrato convincente de uma nação onde normas e ideais não podem mais ser considerados garantidos. Assim como o melhor da escrita de Orwell, estes ensaios também servem como lembretes intemporais da fragilidade da liberdade.

Os ensaios abordam temas atuais como “fake news”, guerra cultural e liberdade de expressão.

Meer oor die skrywer

George Orwell was born Eric Arthur Blair on June 25, 1903 in Motihari in Bengal, India and later studied at Eton College for four years. He was an assistant superintendent with the Indian Imperial Police in Burma. He left that position after five years and moved to Paris, where he wrote his first two books: Burmese Days and Down and Out in Paris and London. He then moved to Spain to write but decided to join the United Workers Marxist Party Militia. After being decidedly opposed to communism, he served in the British Home Guard and with the Indian Service of the BBC during World War II. After the war, he wrote for the Observer and was literary editor for the Tribune. His best known works are Animal Farm and 1984. His other works include A Clergyman's Daughter, Keep the Aspidistra Flying, The Road to Wigan Pier, Homage to Catalonia, and Coming Up for Air. He died on January 21, 1950 at the age of 46.
