Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. First Published in 1985, the aim of this book is to define an aspect of Orwells literary identity which underlies and informs the sociopolitical content of his novels, and which may account for his being more widely read than perhaps any other serious writer in the twentieth century.It is the authors contention that the thematic source of the Orwell novel is the problem of authentic existence, and that Orwells particular sociopolitical concerns were expressions of this problem. In chapter one selections of Orwells autobiographical writings are assessed, for in these the existential conflict between authentic and inauthentic modes of existence is traceable from childhood onwards. Orwell, it is argued, developed an inauthentic self -for- other in response to authoritarian oppressions, and he consequently pursued a double life characterized by the contradictions of doublethink. Chapter two is an account of existential authenticity, and provides both the terms and perspectives subsequently applied in the separate chapters in which each of Orwells five novels are analyzed. In every case, J. P. Sartres bad faith, Martin Heideggers mine and they and Martin Bubers I, Thou and It, are seen to be crucial explanatory notions within the Orwell novel. In his conclusion, therefore, Dr Carter redefines Orwell as an existential sociopolitical writer. This is a must read for students of literature, critical theory, existential philosophy, philosophy in general First Published in 1985, the aim of this book is to define an aspect of Orwells literary identity which underlies and informs the sociopolitical content of his novels, and which may account for his being more widely read This item is printed on demand.
