George Orwell is regarded as the greatest political writer in
English of the twentieth century. The massive critical literature
on Orwell has not only become extremely specialized, and therefore
somewhat inaccessible to the nonscholar, but it has also attributed
to and even created misconceptions about the man, the writer and
his literary legacy. For these reasons, an overview of Orwell??'s
writing and influence is an indispensable resource. Accordingly,
this Companion serves as both an introduction to Orwell??'s work
and furnishes numerous innovative interpretations and fresh
critical perspectives on it. Throughout the Companion, which
includes chapters dedicated to two of Orwell??'s major novels,
Nineteen Eighty-Four and Animal Farm, Orwell??'s work is placed
within the context of the political and social climate of the time.
His response to the Depression, British imperialism, Stalinism,
World War II, and the politics of the British Left are also
examined.
