Synopsis "1984 (in Spanish)"

La elaboración que hizo George Orwell de su singular novela 1984, seguramente partió d la observación y asimilación de algunos tipos de regímenes en la antesala de la Primera Guerra Mundial y un corto período después de la Segunda. Una obra sin lugar a dudas necesaria para comprender y entender el determinante rol que cumplen las cifras estadísticas controladas por el Estado y los medios de comunicación, pero, sobre todo, el papel que ejerce el lenguaje en el sometimiento de pueblos débiles o ignorantes.

Eric Arthur Blair (Motihari, British Raj, June 25, 1903-London, United Kingdom, January 21, 1950), known by his pen name George Orwell, was a British novelist, journalist, essayist, and critic born in India, author among other works of the dystopian novels Animal Farm (1945) and 1984 (1949)

His work bears the mark of autobiographical experiences lived by the author in three stages of his life: his position against British imperialism which led him to commit as a representative of the colonial law enforcement forces in Burma during his youth; in favor of democratic socialism, after having observed and suffered the living conditions of the working social classes in London and Paris; and against Nazi and Stalinist totalitarianisms after his participation in the Spanish Civil War, on the Republican side

In addition to being a chronicler, literary critic, and novelist, he is one of the most prominent essayists in the English language of the 1930s and 1940s. He is also known for his criticisms of totalitarianism in his allegorical short novel Animal Farm (1945) and his dystopian novel 1984 (1949), written in his last years of life and published shortly before his death, in which he creates the concept of "Big Brother," which has since entered the common language of criticism of modern surveillance techniques.
