Slave State: Rereading Orwell's 1984 Lowenthal David
David Lowenthal transposes present society onto that in the novel, 1984, and illustrates "how the quest for a perfect society led instead to the worst--in the course of revolting against which the true ends of life are established." It is more than suspicion: the year 2021 is 1984. To be one without truthful unity? What many understand by instinct, Lowenthal here articulates in clear terms using the political prophesy of this no longer futuristic literature.
"Through the movement of the novel, Orwell tries to impress on the passions, hearts and minds of his readers the most valuable lessons concerning the right and This is the picture of human brotherhood ushering in the only thing worse than inequality--enslavement.There is no positive political message in 1984, argues Lowenthal, but there is positive moral message that is nearly always overlooked by commentators.
