I read that book nearly a decade ago, but I still remember it pretty well. The moral of the story was, "LEARN HISTORY." The main way "Big Brother" maintained control was to cut people off from anything that had happened before their lifetime, and alter the language and culture so that people couldn't think very clearly about what they did remember. A lot of people say that Orwell anticipated the role of television with his thingamabobbers in every house. |
