Sobre este artículo
THE CONCEPTUAL ORIGIN OF "NEWSPEAK"
8vo. Contemporary full calf; gilt decorations on spine; spine label; green silk bookmark. A Paris, Chez Les Marchands De Nouveautés, 1797. First Edition.
La Harpe was the first to denounce an essential mechanism of terror, the manipulation of language; or the concept of "Newspeak," as developed by George Orwell in 1984.
La Harpe shows how revolutionaries gave words new meanings to handle the crowds. They established a "reverse language" that allowed spying in the name of freedom, tyranny in the name of equality, massacre in the name of fraternity, persecution in the name of tolerance, etc.
This inversion of language - which led to the guillotine and the Vendée "genocide" - was set up by the so-called Enlightenment philosophers, including Voltaire who consistently associated the word "fanatical" with Catholic.
Binding worn and chipped at lower spine and bottom edge; endpapers refreshed; generally clean internally. Scarce.
