George Orwell, who died in 1950 at age 47, was a journalist, essayist, writer and activist. Known for two novels written in the 1940s: the political allegory of animal farm and 1984, so celebrate by having given rise to the adjective Orwellian, to define the totalitarianism. Orwell was and remained an inspiration left but policy awareness, even after tragic personal experiences, contradictions and errors of Communism under Stalin led him to be anti-Stalinist and anti-Soviet, clashing with a substantial part of the European left. In 1938, wrote a homage to Catalonia, a diary-report against the Stalinists Spaniards, accused of having betrayed the loyalists and anarchists in Spain.
