The Profile

George Orwell (Eric Arthur Blair, 1903–1950) was a British author and journalist known for Animal Farm and Nineteen Eighty-Four, incisive essays, and clear prose about politics, language, and power.

Born Eric Arthur Blair in 1903; died 1950. British. Served in the Imperial Police in Burma, fought in the Spanish Civil War, worked for the BBC during WWII. Author of Animal Farm (1945) and Nineteen Eighty-Four (1949), plus influential essays and reportage.

Six DeBaser reviews dive into Orwell’s 1984 and Animal Farm: dystopia, propaganda, and language as tools of power. Big Brother, doublethink, and Room 101 loom large. Critics connect Orwell’s themes to media, politics, and modern anxieties. Overall tone: engaged, sharp, and largely appreciative.
