FANTASY AND REALITY IN THE WORKS OF GEORGE ORWELL
Abstract
The article "Fantasy and Reality in the Works of George Orwell" explores the fusion of fantastical and realistic elements in the writings of the renowned English author. Special focus is given to the novels "1984" and "Animal Farm", where Orwell employs dystopian settings and talking animals as literary devices to intensify the depiction of real political and social issues of his time. The article examines how Orwell uses elements of fantasy to express criticism of totalitarianism, mind control, and the erosion of individual freedom. It concludes that fantasy in Orwell’s works is not an end in itself, but a powerful means to reveal the deeper mechanisms of power and to warn society about the dangers of political apathy and blind ideological obedience.
