Message of the novel

Orwell wants to warn people after the years of threats of Nazism and Salinism. His description of a state like Oceania calls on readers to reflect on society and how they want their country to be governed.

Meaning

of some words

• Doublethink

It's the act of associating a word with a contradictory definition. It's a form of thought manipulation, like the party slogan or 2+2=5, for example.

• Thinkpol

It's the Tought Police: the secret police of the superstate of Oceania, who discover and punish thoughtcrime.

• Dystopia

Very bad or unfair society in which there is a lot of suffering, especially an imaginary society in the future, after something terrible has happened; a description of such a society

• Telescreen

It allows The Party to watch its citizens. People know the cameras and microphones are always on, but they can never be certain someone is watching at that time

• Ministry

The Ministry of Peace concerns itself with war, the Ministry of Truth with lies, the Ministry of Love with torture and the Ministry of Plenty with starvation.

• Newspeak

Official language of Oceania

Conclusion

1984 is therefore a novel with an obvious philosophical content: its themes are treated in such a way as to make the American of 1949 reflect on the dangers of regimes with totalitarian tendencies
