Nineteen Eighty-Four

The Thought Police, Doublethink, Newspeak, Big Brother – '1984' itself: these terms have moved from the world of fiction into our everyday lives. They are central to our thinking about freedom and its suppression; yet they were created by George Orwell in 1949 as he conjured his dystopian vision of a world where totalitarian power is absolute.

The Thought Police, Doublethink, Newsspeak, Big Brother - ,,1984" in sine: acesti termeni s-au mutat din lumea fictiunii in viata noastra de zi cu zi. Ele sunt esentiale pentru gandirea noastra despre libertate si suprimarea ei; totusi, au fost create de George Orwell in 1949, cand el si-a evocat viziunea distopica a unei lumi in care puterea totalitara este absoluta.
