Passage （B）
Few writers have had such an impact n the thinking f the mdern wrld as British writer Gerge Orwell(1903-1950). Orwell wrte many things n a variety f tpics, fr example, pverty in England in the 1930s during the Great Depressin and his experience in the Spanish Civil War(1936-1939).
But he is mst famus fr his wrks f fictin, Animal Farm(1945) and, especially, Nineteen Eighty-Fur(1949). These last bks became especially influential in the West in the 1950s during the early Cld War years.
In Nineteen Eighty-Fur, Orwell imagined a Britain f the future, mdeled n the Sviet unin. His frightening tale f Winstn Smith, a regular man wh cmes int cnflict with the gvernment, was clse t the fears f many peple f the time. Ideas frm the nvel sn entered everyday culture, and are still in use tday. “Big Brther”, fr example, is a phrase frm the bk that refers t hw authrity is always lking ver ne’s shulder.
Other phrases used in the nvel, like “War is Peace” and “Freedm is slavery” are als still used nw. Indeed, many peple see Orwell’s bk as warnings abut what might happen if thse in pwer becme crrupted.
Even tday, Orwell remains an influential vice. Often, writers achieve great fame and ppularity, but they dn’t affect hw peple live their everyday lives. Fr example, British authr JK Rwling is a huge literary success, but peple wuldn’t say that Harry Ptter has affected the way peple think abut plitics. Fr better r fr wrse, hwever, Gerge Orwell has.
It’s because f Orwell’s influence n ppular thinking that UNESCO’S Memry f the Wrld Prgramme recently decided t include a cllectin f Orwell’s writings n its register.
The Memry f the Wrld Register is similar t UNESCO’s Wrld Heritage Site prgram, which prtects places and buildings and natural features in the wrld. Accrding t its website, the idea behind the bdy is “that the wrld’s dcumentary evidence belngs t all” and shuld be “permanently accessible t all”.
University Cllege Lndn, which prpsed the idea t UNESCO, said in its applicatin that Orwell’s wrk “had a great influence n human thught in all parts f the wrld, an influence that remains pwerful tday”.
