Description

George Orwell (1903-1950) is one of the most influential authors in the English language. His landmark novels Animal Farm (1945) and 1984 (1949) have been translated into many foreign languages and inspired numerous stage and film adaptations. His well-known essays, “A Hanging” and “Shooting an Elephant”, are widely anthologized and often taught in college composition classes. The writer is credited with inventing the terms “Big Brother”, “thought crime”, “unperson” and “double think”. His name itself has become an adjective - “Orwellian.” Seventy years after its publication, 1984 remains very popular, its sales surging in an era of enhanced surveillance and media manipulation. This literary companion provides an extensive chronology and 175 entries about both his literary works and personal life. Also included are discussion questions and research topics, notable quotations by Orwell and an extensive bibliography of related sources.
