Autor

George Orwell, born Eric Arthur Blair in 1903, was a British author and journalist known for his sharp social criticism and advocacy for democratic socialism. Raised in India and England, Orwell's early experiences shaped his disdain for imperialism, which he later explored in his work Burmese Days. His time fighting in the Spanish Civil War solidified his opposition to totalitarian regimes, influencing much of his later writing.Orwell gained widespread recognition for his two most famous works, Animal Farm (1945) and Nineteen Eighty-Four (1949). Both novels critique authoritarianism, with Animal Farm serving as a satirical allegory of the Russian Revolution, while Nineteen Eighty-Four explores a dystopian future ruled by oppressive surveillance and thought control. These works helped cement Orwell's legacy as a master of political satire and dystopian fiction.Throughout his career, Orwell's essays, critiques, and novels reflected his commitment to uncovering the social injustices of his time. His writing, characterized by clarity and intellectual rigor, remains influential, especially in discussions on the nature of power, freedom, and truth. Orwell passed away in 1950, but his works continue to shape political discourse and literary thought around the world.
