George Orwell (1903–1950), born Eric Arthur Blair, was a British writer, essayist, and journalist who, with his novels Animal Farm and Nineteen Eighty-Four, became one of the most influential critics of totalitarianism in the twentieth century. Through clear, committed prose, he exposed political lies, the corruption of power, and the danger of propaganda. His works remain a central reference in discussions of freedom, truth, and state surveillance.
