E 'began a year. The change, although in the context of the needs, often becomes a process of slow. A change hath been revealed in the Oval Office in Washington. A breath of information hath been had by treating topics uncomfortable to the premier. Still there is a sea per poter iniziare a vedere qualche verità sui media, sul conflitto di interessi, sui monopoli.
Qualche tempo fa apparve su Repubblica un articolo che “gioiva” alla diffusione di alcuni libri “proibiti” in Nord Corea, ed erano accennati dei passi di George Orwell, preso a modello come libero pensatore nel contesto bolscevica e comunista: pareva quasi che 1984 fosse stato scritto per i comunisti e contro i comunisti (strano che su Focus lo stesso scrittore britannico venne definito “comunista”). Mancavano, nelle citazioni, dei passi forse importanti, mentre stavano citate alcune righe riguardanti un libro di storia per bambini, e la relazione tra la figura del Grande Fratello e il Partito (espressamente associato Republic from the Communist Party). So, you want to quote Orwell, it means becoming a communist or anticommunist: This is the only solution except for the total elimination (burning) of his books. But here's what you are probably forgot to write:
"Somewhere brains were thinking, strictly anonymous, who coordinated everything and fix the policies which imposed to preserve, falsify or destroy a particular fragment of the past."
" There they produced papers that contained only trash sport, the facts of crime news, horoscopes, novelettes, films crammed with sex, and sentimental songs composed by a kind of kaleidoscope called 'Versifier'. Not missing an entire subsection (Pornosez, in Newspeak) engaged in the production of pornographic material "
" The hard work, care of the house and children, petty quarrels with neighbors, films, football, beer, and especially gambling, limiting their horizons. "
" The rocket bombs which fell all the day on London were probably dropped by the government of Oceania 'to keep people in fear' "
" On a concrete level, however, the war involves only a small number of people, for the most part highly specialized troops, and causes relatively small losses. The fighting, when there is, they occur in border towns whose location is virtually unknown to the common man. "
" At the same time, the knowledge that in war, and therefore in danger, makes the concentration of all power in the hands of a small caste seem the only and unavoidable condition in order to survive. "
is the number of Republic today (December 27, 2009), a summary of some forty pages (the rest are shows, tv, sports and local news): First
page headlines: "Terrorism, the fear returns flight "
11 + 1 pages were devoted to terrorism and war, safety of the Pope, Iran and Afghanistan and their wickedness, to Al Qaeda
9 pages of advertising (full page)
7 pages of crime news, weather and gossip
4 pages of curiosity (animals, wine, "Cortina d'Ampezzo and Madonna di Campiglio)
3 pages of political reforms to the summary of Berlusconi, and a little 'space at the PD and "all'inciucio"
3 pages of economy
PS Here's the part quoted by the Republic in "Reading Orwell in Pyongyang on 28 October 2009:
" He took the children's history book and looked at the portrait of Big Brother that stood on the front. I His eyes stared at him, hypnotics. It was as if some immense force crush you, something that penetrated the skull and there pounding the brain, to instil the fear of having personal opinions and almost persuading them to deny the evidence of what they will send you directions. One day the party would have proclaimed that two plus two equals five, and you would have to believe it. It was inevitable that sooner or later it happens, was in the very premises upon which it was based of the Party. (...) But the terrible thing was not so much that you would kill if you had thought otherwise, but that they could be right. After all, how do we know that two plus two equals four? "Certainly Orwell took
as a reference to the Soviet sad events, but if the Animal Farm is clearly dedicated to the famous party "equality" and its vicissitudes, 1984 is something more, is an expansion of thought that extends and embraces the world, the foggy London of 1800 to smokey Shanghai 2099.
