George Orwell’s 1984: A conversation with Charles Lane

Описание: George Orwell’s 1984 has become a shorthand for political fear, surveillance, and the corruption of language. The novel itself is stranger and more demanding than the shorthand.

In this five-session seminar, Charles Lane will lead fellows through Orwell’s account of power, truth, memory, intimacy, and the effort to preserve an inner life.

The schedule is Mondays from 6:00 to 8:00 PM ET on January 4, January 11, January 25, and February 1, plus Tuesday, January 19, from 7:00 to 9:00 PM ET.
