Orwell's books are assigned  today in over 60,000 classrooms annually. In this book essays by prominent  writers and scholars explain why his impact continues in a world much changed  from his own. The essays explore new aspects of Orwell's life and work and his  continuing relevance for the interpretation of modern social, political, and  cultural affairs. Thematic topics include: the use and abuse of 1984; ideas,  ideologues, and intellectuals; biography and autobiography; literary and stylistic  analyses; and the reception of Orwell's work abroad. The volume is an ideal  secondary source for those who continue to be influenced by Orwell's insights  and for teachers of Orwell's work.
