1949255Germany: Publisher not identified 1949. Original printed wrappers. Octavo 16.5 x 11.8 cm. 79 pages. Text in Russian. A clean copy in very good condition with a lightly spotted title.<br /> <br /> A Russian edition of Orwell's masterpiece Animal Farm - the most important work of fictional political satire and an exceptional example of a notoriously fragile production. First it appeared in Posev a weekly social and political review Nos. 7-25 1949. In 1950 Posev published the first Russian edition in book form. This unknown edition that doesn't bear Posev's imprint could be either a signal edition published prior to 1950 or intended to be secretly distributed among the Russian Soviet soldiers deployed in German-occupied zones. <br /> <br /> In one of his letters to Gleb Struve George Orwell wrote the following "…The Possev people sent me a complete file of the paper containing your translation of Animal Farm. They now want to bring out an edition in book form to distribute in the Soviet Zone. This of course would cost money as the copies so distributed wouldn't be paid for. Meanwhile my agent tells me that he was already in negotiation with some other Russian publisher to bring out a translation. It's all in the air yet but I've suggested that if he does close with this other publisher your translation should be used as it would save time and I know the translation would be a good one. In that case I suppose you would be paid something – but as I say nothing is settled yet. But at any rate I shall see to it that the book appears in book form even if I have to finance it myself…" letter to Gleb Struve July 1949. <br /> <br /> Scarce. Not in the trade as of December 2020.

BIB-561548Hardcover. Publisher: Natur & Kultur Allmänlitt. Utg. 2015 Hardcover 341 p. ; 22 cm This book is brand new. Original title: Essays Translator: Handberg Peter Language: Svenska --- Information regarding the book: "Varje rad jag har skrivit sedan 1936 har skrivits mot totalitarism och för demokratisk socialism. Min startpunkt är alltid en upplevelse av orättvisa. Jag skriver därför att det finns någon lögn som jag vill avslöja." George Orwell skrev sina samhällskritiska essäer och artiklar under det bruna 30-talet och nattsvarta 40-talet. De präglades djupt av de utmaningar som dessa tider stod inför: nazism och kommunism världskrig och världssamfund kolonialism och internationalism jämlikhet och utstötthet. I detta generösa urval får vi möta Orwells politiska och etiska ställningstaganden som ledde fram till mästerverk som 1984 och Djurfarmen. Här myntar han begreppet "kallt krig" här analyserar han Hitlers Mein Kampf här drar han sig till minnes sin barndoms skola där han mobbades av elever och lärare tillika för att han inte var ett rikemansbarn utan en flitig stipendiat. Med en glasklar prosa och en kompromisslös uppriktighet nagelfar Orwell den värld som han tycker hamnat så snett och snart sagt varje rad skälver av indignation. Förord av Lena Andersson. Den brittiske journalisten George Orwell pseudonym för Eric Blair 19031950 har myntat odödliga uttryck som "storebror ser dig" och "kalla kriget". Han är främst känd för sina samhällskritiska romaner 1984 och Djurfarmen. Originalets titel: Essays Övers. Peter Handberg "Läs denne man - en fantastiskt vass samhällskritiker. Här förklarar han varför han blev socialist och skrev Djurfarmen och 1984." Yukiko Duke SVT Gomorron Sverige "Han är något så sällsynt som en rolig moralist. Ofta kusligt aktuell. Inte bara beroende på tidsandan utan därför att han har den konservatives pessimistiska syn på människan men socialistens tro på det goda." Ulrika Knutsson Expressen hardcover

9786587017693MINOTAURO. new. A hist��ria da vida de George Orwell um dos mais famosos escritores de todos os tempos contribuiu imensamente para sua compreens�o do mundo. Cr�tico constante do poder e da autoridade as ra�zes de suas obras A Revolu��o dos Bichos e 1984 come��aram a brotar em seus anos de forma��o como aluno da rigorosa escola particular em Eastbourne. O ensaio Tantas Tantas Eram as Alegrias reconta a dura realidade do regime que sujeitava os alunos em nome do preconceito de classe da hierarquia e do destino imperial. Os quadrinhos d�o vida ��s experi�ncias de Orwell na escola - tendo garantido sua vaga por bolsa de estudos e n�o pela origem abastada o pequeno sofria nas m�os tanto dos funcionǭrios quanto dos colegas mais ricos. A viol�ncia dos professores e o constrangimento a que era diariamente submetido saltam das pǭginas evocando a imagem desse mundo cruel visto pelos olhos inocentes de uma crian��a ao que justap��em-se as reflex��es de um Orwell maduro sobre o que esse tipo de escolariza��o diz sobre a sociedade.

1941187322London: Victor Gollancz Ltd 1941. Orwell opposes Hitler and Stalin First edition one of 500 copies issued in red boards for the Left Book Club alongside the public issue of 1300 copies in blue cloth; both are scarce on the market. This forceful attack on the British Communist Party's support of the Nazi-Soviet pact includes two essays by Orwell "Fascism and Democracy" and "Patriots and Revolutionaries". The left-wing publisher Victor Gollancz was harried by the British Communist Party for opposing Stalin and his alliance with Hitler. Party hostility drove Left Book Club membership down from 57000 to 15000 between 1939 and 1942. This volume was assembled in response collecting Left News articles critiquing Communist Party policy and was published in March 1941. After the Nazi invasion of the USSR in June the Party reversed its position and Gollancz likewise shifted to supporting the Soviet Union. He subsequently declined to publish Animal Farm because of its implicit criticism of Stalin making this his final book to include Orwell's work. Orwell's two contributions argue that the materialism of the left led them to underestimate fascism's emotional appeal and that the revolutionary moment possible after Dunkirk was lost as the ruling class reasserted itself. Octavo. Original red boards spine lettered in gilt. Contemporary ownership signature to front free endpaper very minor pencilled annotations to contents. Spine sunned light wear at extremities. A very good copy. Fenwick B.5. hardcover
1941190624London: Victor Gollancz Ltd 1941. First edition first impression of this vigorous attack on the British Communist Party for their support of the Nazi-Soviet pact and their adherence to Stalin's orders to adopt a neutral attitude towards Nazi Germany. It contains two essays by Orwell "Fascism and Democracy" and "Patriots and Revolutionaries". The left-wing publisher Victor Gollancz who published Orwell's works was relentlessly harried by the British Communist Party for his and his writers' opposition to Stalin and Stalin's alliance with Hitler. The Party's hostility had led to membership in Gollancz's Left Book Club falling from 57000 to 15000 between 1939 and 1942. This volume was put together in response collecting articles that had appeared in the Left News and providing a detailed critique of Communist Party policy between October 1939 and January 1941. It was published in March 1941; with the Nazi invasion of the Soviet Union in June the Communist Party fully re-orientated to a fervent opposition to Germany. Gollancz meanwhile moved to closer support of the Soviet Union and decided not to publish Animal Farm due to its implicit criticism of Stalin - this was the final Gollancz book with Orwell's work in it. Orwell's two contributions argue respectively that the materialism of the left led them to underestimate the emotional appeal of fascism and that the revolutionary moment possible after Dunkirk was missed and the ruling class had re-asserted themselves. The total print run was 1800 copies; 1300 copies were issued in the present blue cloth for the public with 500 copies issued in red cloth for the Left Book Club. Copies are rarely encountered on the market. Octavo. Original blue cloth spine lettered in gilt. Loosely inserted is a pencilled letter from one "Pat" to "Darling Mummy" telling her "you have often said I don't explain my views to you and here they are explained". Spine sunned a little soiling cockling and rubbing to cloth foxing to contents. A very good copy. Fenwick B.5. hardcover
