Krátky popis
'Politics and the English Language' is widely considered Orwell's
most important essay on style. Style, for Orwell, was never simply
a question of aesthetics, it was always inextricably linked to
politics and to truth.'All issues are political issues, and
politics itself is a mass of lies, evasions, folly, hatred and
schizophrenia.When the general atmosphere is bad, language must
suffer.'Language is a political issue, and slovenly use of language
and cliches make it easier for those in power to deliberately use
misleading language to hide unpleasant political facts. Bad
English, he believed, was a vehicle for oppressive ideology, and it
is no accident that 'Politics and the English Language' was written
after the close of World War II.
