9786559570669AVIS RARA. new. Aos 33 anos o escritor brit�nico George Orwell embarcou na noite de 25 de dezembro de 1936 em uma esta��o de trem de Paris com destino a Barcelona.Os vag��es estavam cheios de voluntǭrios europeus que rumavam para lutar contra os fascistas na Guerra Civil Espanhola. Ao longo de seis meses Orwell participou de treinamentos militares com adolescentes espanh��is atirou contra soldados franquistas montou guarda no telhado de um cinema dormiu enrolado em uma cortina de cabarǸ na companhia de duas granadas e fumou cigarros feitos por andaluzes humildes. De volta a Barcelona depois de meses no front passando fome e frio n�o p�de participar do conflito em Madri. Dias depois testemunhou a a��o dos comunistas que prenderam e fuzilaram anarquistas e trotskistas � grupos aliados que estavam ali lutando tambǸm contra o fascismo � enquanto as tropas de Franco avan��avam no restante do pa�s. Essa experi�ncia espanhola de perceber o autoritarismo presente nos movimentos que deveriam lutar contra as ditaduras moldou a vis�o de mundo de Orwell que depois escreveria os livros A revolu��o dos bichos e 1984. Este livro inclui Homenagem �� Catalunha que o autor esbo��ou em Barcelona e o ensaio Recordando a guerra espanhola redigido anos mais tarde. Ao longo dos textos mais de sessenta notas trazem explica����es e curiosidades que foram aqui reunidas e sistematizadas pelo jornalista e tradutor Duda Teixeira. Esta edi��o conta ainda com uma linha do tempo e um glossǭrio que auxiliam a entender a complexa Guerra Civil Espanhola precursora da Segunda Guerra Mundial. A palavra contudo Ǹ sempre do brilhante George Orwell. � ele quem comanda esta aventura. AVIS RARA unknown
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
