Ergebnis für "1984" in Thriller

Diese Hörbuchausgabe vereint zwei der einflussreichsten politischen Werke des 20. Jahrhunderts: George Orwells 1984, gelesen von Hans Jürgen Stockerl, und Farm der Tiere, gelesen von Elmar Börger. Winston Smith arbeitet im Ministerium für Wahrheit. Tag für Tag schreibt er Zeitungsartikel und Berichte um, damit die Vergangenheit zur jeweils gültigen Wahrheit der Partei passt. Schließlich wagt er das Undenkbare: Er beginnt, ein Tagebuch zu führen, um wenigstens seine Gedanken der Kontrolle des Regimes zu entziehen. Die Tiere auf der Farm von Mr. Jones haben genug.

It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Det är 1984, och livet har förändrats till oigenkännlighet. Flygbas Ett, det som en gång hette Storbritannien, är en plats där Storebror alltid ser dig, och ingen kan gömma sig. Utom, möjligen, Winston Smith. Samtidigt som han arbetar med att skriva om historien, på Sanningsministeriet, drömmer han i hemlighet om frihet. I en värld där kärlek och sex är förbjudna och det är svårt att skilja på vän och fiende, möter han Julia och O’Brien, och svär att göra uppror.

Über allem steht der Große Bruder, das allgegenwärtige Gesicht des Regimes in Ozeanien.

Op het Ministerie van Waarheid waar hij geschiedenis herschrijft, droomt hij stilletjes van vrijheid. In deze wereld waar liefde en seks verboden zijn en het haast onmogelijk is vriend van vijand te onderscheiden, ontmoet hij Julia en O'Brien en zweert hij in opstand te komen.

Publicado em 1949, o texto de Orwell nasceu destinado à polêmica. Traduzido em mais de sessenta países, virou minissérie, filmes, quadrinhos, mangás e até uma ópera. Ganhou holofotes em 1999, quando uma produtora holandesa batizou seu reality show de Big Brother. 1984 foi responsável pela popularização de muitos termos e conceitos, como Grande Irmão, duplopensar, novidioma, e buraco da memória.
