Opis i karakteristike
Follows the text of the first edition published by Secker & Warburg in 1938. Contains over 20 pages of notes.
After travelling to Spain at the end of 1936 with the intention of working as a correspondent for a British socialist newspaper, thirtythreeyearold George Orwell decided to join the Republican efforts to overturn Franco’s Nationalists in the Spanish Civil War. Having enrolled in the POUM militias, the young writer was soon forced to experience firsthand the hardships and dangers of trench warfare, before becoming involved in the Barcelona May Day street fighting and nearly being killed by a bullet on his return to the front line. Orwell’s initial idealistic dreams of a victorious fight against fascism were gradually tainted by doubt and disillusionment as the divisions and infighting within the Republican coalition became apparent.
Part war memoir, part tract, part exposé, Homage to Catalonia is a pivotal work in Orwell’s œuvre, and a key to understanding his political ideas and commitment to the socialist cause. Rejected by Orwell’s longstanding publisher, Gollancz, on political grounds, it is here presented in its original version, as published by Secker & Warburg in 1938.
