51110London: Puls Publications 1985. 12mo 14 Ã 9.5 cm. Original printed card wrappers; 291 2 pp. Very good. First edition. A collected volume of George Orwell's 1903-1950 critical philosophical and political essays spanning his literary career 1931-1949 with many of the essays appearing in Polish translation for the first time. Orwell wrote a good deal about Poland during and after WWII with his generally sympathetic tone especially on the question of Polish refugees settling in post-war Britain much appreciated and discussed in Polish circles. This volume includes essays on literature under totalitarianism remarks on Mein Kampf Orwell's recollections of the Spanish Civil War writings on nationalism and Antisemitism in Britain. It also includes Orwell's reflections on other writers such as Zamyatin Tolstoy Shakespeare and Sartre. <br/><br/>The award-winning journalist and activist Anna Husarska completed the translation for Puls. In addition to translation work Husarska was the editor of a Polish opposition daily Gazeta Wyborcza prior to writing for The New Yorker and The New Republic. Husarska admits that translating Orwell had a major impact on her own writing. "I try to imitate him and before turning in any piece I have written I give it an 'Orwell read' and eliminate all the pretentious or boring words. Plus I check my pieces for political decency if you see what I mean" See interview with Husarska in Robert Snyder ed. Reporting the Post-communist Revolution pp. 45-58. Includes an introduction by the literary critic Maciej BroÅski. <br/><br/>As of December 2020 KVK OCLC show copies in Zurich Cambridge The British Library Oxford National Library of Scotland National Library of Israel Michigan and Stanford. unknown books
