9786559210190CIA DAS LETRAS. new. Mais do que um vislumbre �� forma��o do estilo e das ideias que norteariam a obra de George Orwell Homenagem �� Catalunha Ǹ um documento hist��rico que retrata com sinceridade atroz o desengano de toda uma gera��o.Em 1936 o jovem George Orwell trocou a Inglaterra pela Espanha onde se alistou na mil�cia socialista Poum para enfrentar os fascistas liderados por Franco. A experi�ncia narrada com honestidade e sem recorrer a artif�cios romanescos Ǹ a matǸria de Homenagem �� Catalunha.Ao chegar no front em Barcelona Orwell recebeu um treinamento curto e in�til um rifle falho e trapos para usar de uniforme. Ansioso para o combate suas ilus��es duraram poucas noites: ele precisou encarar a inutilidade da luta e de servir para uma mil�cia que mais atuava distraindo os fascistas do que os combatendo.Como o pr��prio Orwell afirmou a experi�ncia traumǭtica na guerra que incluiu ser atingido por um tiro quase fatal na garganta foi responsǭvel por moldar a percep��o pol�tica e a vis�o de mundo que norteiam livros como 1984 e A Fazenda dos Animais. Socialista atǸ o fim o autor testemunhou o ponto de inflex�o no qual sonhos revolucionǭrios se revelaram uma fachada para puls��es autoritǭrias e violentas. CIA DAS LETRAS unknown
