Thanks for the summary. This book was pretty unbearable. I tried very hard but 2 hours in they are still talking about test tube babies and alphas, betas, and whatever else

Great summary. Great voice. Thanks!

ayeye prelims tomorrow 😮‍💨

Really loved your analysis and the background music. Well presented! Please do other classic books.

There was no reason to spoil King Lear!

Advice to dictators in our time, but good luck to any democratic leader that fully implements what“the Prince“ advises…. Democracy as we know did not exist in his time.. ps things did not work out well for Ceasare Borgia…

My brain explodes when I understand all of this. Let alone practice that, only a damaged brain can do that. I can only imagine how brutal the beginning of such dictatorship was in order to force the first generation of people to think this way.

I love your videos!!! Great work

Shakespeare was a natural musician!

This is a great video. I read the book many years ago but didn't remember much of it, so this sated my curiosity. However, you've clearly used AI generated images, which is theft. Please don't continue to do that. You're better than that.

You defined very clearly... i listened from many person before this but couldn't understand.. i properly understood today.

I'm literally writing in 9 minutes😭😭😭😭

It freaked me out that even though it was written almost one hundred years ago, the world he described has too many resemblances with today society. It was a shoking reading

What’s it like vs 1984 ?

The democrats have gone over board with this recently. Funny that their authoritarianism is being ignored while trying to accuse a man who took a bullet to protect democracy, of being a new hitler. Big business supported hitler. Big business supports kamala

Im confused because my revision sheets is different some of it different but yours is more easy to understand

blockchain that info so its stored somewhere, how big a shakepearan book stored in a blockchain storage media

Shakespeare was fascinated by the outsider (he himself was an outsider) who says to his oppressor “you made me what I am “ Caliban says this to Prospero in The Tempest. Shakespeare cannot rescue Shylock from History, but he can, and does, give him a voice. 2,000 years later, we should all grow up.

Great work, this summary was very helpful.

I always wondered if it was Oceania firing missiles at itself to perpetuate fear & war & to keep Big Brother eternally in power. Perhps the other two powers did something similar to maintain control over their populaces. 1984 remains my favourite book.

you can still be deceived , lied to, and even see death before your own eyes, if you are a loved human. Either way you lose. Watch The GodFather. He was always so nice to everyone and very well known, powerful, and loved. However he still got shot and death.

Love hearing your voice. Very soothing even if you're discussing murder 😊

O’Nrien in this animation looks like Jeff Goldblum.

He reflected his world view and the paranoia of the time. Why didn’t Winston slide down into the proletariat? Orwell was a British writer….in other words he lived in a monarchy, which is blood line superiority. America knows better and lives it daily. His real name was Eric Arthur Blair and he died in 1950.

I’m cooked on a level i cannot comprehend

Just read this today……Summary- -It’s harder to be a new prince. -Be a foxlion. -Be kinda feared, kinda loved and not hated. -You can emulate previous success but it’s subjective to circumstances.

He wrote the book for Giuliano’s kin Lorenzo II, no?

Seeing a Kamala Harris ad, right before an explanation of the definition of Orwell's doublethink is incredible. #BorderCzar

I want peace i want freedom i want painless society ❤ that's what many people want. Ask those people who r in pain they will tell it's better to live in boring, peaceful, painless, freedom, pleasure society than fighting fr life nd danger

Mistakes were made

And Trigonometry is the study of triangles. More useless things I never used from High School.

peopel who r watching before the english exam

So simple! Thanks.

arguably the most important quote is the last line: "The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which." because its reverting animal farm back to manor farm [except worse].

REALLY enjoyed this, love this play, such a moving story

In both animal farm and 1984 orwell shows us how easily a population can be manipulated by its leaders to believe anything. Hmmmmm .....

Fascinating! Thank you.

I love it!

"Can a man with a beard tell a bare-faced lie" is a classic case of Doublethink; it's neither true nor false, neither right nor wrong. A classic case of a razor-sharp conundrum. “Reality exists in the human mind and nowhere else.” ― George Orwell, 1984

The crux is this: If you desire to bring about a positive change, but are virtuous and fair, someone with less scruples will come along and dislodge you, leading to the rule of a tyrant. If you want to enact your virtuous ideals, you will have to use non-virtuous means in order to survive. See the world and humans as they are, not as you wish them to be.

Many thanks, this was super helpful :)

Wow!! Thanks for that.

Social media is definitely a re-education tool. Has the power to talk people out of their gender. Sky is the limit.
