Motihari, India, June 25, 1903, d. London, Jan. 21, 1950, achieved prominence in the late 1940s as the author of two brilliant satires attacking totalitarianism. Familiarity with the novels, documentaries, essays, and criticism he wrote during the 1930s and later has since established him as one of the most important and influential voices of the century. Orwell's parents were members of the Indian Civil Service, and, after an education at Eton College in England, Orwell joined (1922) the Indian Imperial Police in Burma, an experience that later found expression in the novel Burmese Days (1934).

   Extractions: George Orwell by Richard Widmann GEORGE ORWELL WAS THE PEN NAME of the English author, Eric Arthur Blair. Orwell was educated in England at Eton College. After service with the Indian Imperial Police in Burma from 1922 to 1927, he returned to Europe to become a writer. He lived for several years in poverty. His earliest experiences resulted in the book, Down and Out in Paris and London.    By 1936, Orwell had joined the Republican forces in the Spanish Civil War. Orwell was critical of Communism but basically considered himself a Socialist. He was wounded in the fighting. Late in the war, Orwell fought the Communists and eventually had to flee Spain for his life. Orwell documented many of his experiences during the Spanish Civil War in his Homage to Catalonia.    Orwell's various experiences with totalitarian political regimes had a direct impact on his prose. Orwell's best-known books reflect his opposition to totalitarianism: Animal Farm and Nineteen Eighty-Four. In an article entitled, "Why I Write" Orwell would explain: "Every line of serious work that I have written since 1936 has been written, directly or indirectly, against totalitarianism...

The family moved to England in 1907 and in 1917 Orwell entered Eton, where he contributed regularly to the various college magazines. From 1922 to 1927 he served with the Indian Imperial Police in Burma, an experience that inspired his first novel, Burmese Days (1934). Several years of poverty followed. He lived in Paris for two years before returning to England, where he worked successively as a private tutor, schoolteacher and bookshop assistant, and contributed reviews and articles to a number of periodicals. Down and Out in Paris and London was published in 1933. In 1936, he was commissioned by Victor Gollancz to visit areas of mass unemployment in Lancashire and Yorkshire, and The Road to Wigan Pier (1937) is a powerful description of the poverty he saw there. At the end of 1936 Orwell went to Spain to fight for the Republicans and was wounded, and Homage to Catalonia is his account of the civil war. He was admitted to a sanatorium in 1938 and from then on was never fully fit. He spent six months in Morocco and there wrote

    Extractions: George Orwell was born Eric Arthur Blair on June 25, 1903, in Motihari, India. The Blair¹s were relatively prosperous civil servants, working in India on behalf of the British Empire. Blair would later describe his family¹s socioeconomic status as "lower-upper middle class," on comment on the extraordinary degree to which British citizens in India depended on the Empire for their livelihood; though the Blair were able to live quite comfortably in India, they had none of the physical assets or independent investments that would have been enjoyed by their class in England proper. Despite this factor, Ida Blair moved back to England in 1904 with Eric and his older sister Marjorie so that they could be brought up in a more traditional Christian environment. In England, Blair entered the public school system, and was admitted to Eton College in 1917. For most students of this era, Eton led directly to higher education at a university, often Oxford or Cambridge. Blair shunned further formal schooling, and after leaving Eton in 1921, returned to India in 1922 to join the Indian Imperial Police. This work gave Blair his first real experiences with the poor and downtrodden whom he would later champion, and unhappy with the his position as the "hand of the oppressor," Blair resigned from the police force in 1927, returning to England that same year.

    Život a dílo. Podrobněji a s obrázky z některých děl, odkazy na stránky v ČR i zahraničí.  
    http://www.pismak.cz/knihomolna/orwell/
    
    Extractions: Život George Orwell, vlastním jménem Eric Arthur Blair, se narodil roku 25. 6. 1903 v Motihari v Indii v rodinì koloniálního úøedníka, v typické anglické "middle-class". Vyrùstal v Anglii v Oxfordshiru, kde plyne také øíèka Orwell, podle níž si Blair zvolil svùj pseudonym. Vystudoval soukromou støední školu (proti nim posléze velice brojil) a prestižní Eton. Poté do svých 25 let sloužil v Indické imperiální policii v Barmì (pozdìji v knize Barmské dny ). V roce 1927 se vrací do Anglie a zaèíná se živit jako novináø a esejista. Nìjakou dobu žije také jako tulák v tìch nejchudších vrstvách v Paøíži a Londýnì (zpracováno v knize Na dnì v Paøíži a Londýnì ). Intenzivní politické a sociální vøení, které smýká Evropou, ho vtahuje a tak se stává Georgem Orwellem, vášnivým socialistou, odpùrcem fašismu a zastáncem rovnosti. A také spisovatelem - v 30. létech napsal jak nìkolik románù - Faráøova dcera Bože chraò aspidistru Nadechnout se , tak "non-fiction" - napø. Road to Wigan Pier . Není divu, že se zapojuje jako dobrovolník do španìlské obèanské války, kde bojuje v legiích POUM - španìlského socialistického hnutí. O svých zážitcích píše v knize Hold Katalánsku . V dobì druhé svìtové války byl již naprosto pevnì pøesvìdèen, že stávající kapitalistický systém nemá šanci na pøežití. To se odráželo zejména v jeho novináøské a esejistické tvorbì. Orwellovy eseje vydala v roce 1995 Votobia ve výbìru
