我们的时代不幸被奥威尔言中

July 12th, 2009   Filed under Books 'n Movies

今天读完了George Orwell的《动物庄园》,再加上大学时读得《1984》,算是完整了。想当年读《1984》的时候就惊叹于作者描述的世界和文革和现世何其类似,待读完《动物庄园》后更是被奥威尔的先见之明所折服。《动物庄园》篇幅短小,但是却清楚的勾勒出了失败的革命的路线图。不看压迫的群众需要一次革命,而一个愿景(xxx主义)和一个组织(xx党)的出现侧可迅速催化这场革命,但是革命成功后,果实迅速被少数人窃取。而后主义先是被教条化,抽象画,权威化,在独裁者日益巩固后又将其自已扭曲,为己所用,而后暴力恐怖和肆意谎言到处充斥,大部分人又回到了从前或者还不如从前。而《1984》则是详细的刻画了这样一个充满政治迫害、暴力恐怖和光天谎言的社会,可以看作是动物庄园建立起来后的社会景象的进一步剖析。

Hi, I'm Chern. This is my personal blog. I'm currently working for a business consulting firm in Shanghai. I don't quite love my work though and is always seeking a way to escape. But I don't know wher to escape. Pity!

I'm not a coder nor a designer, however, I believe the quote "Code is poem" and weight algorithm and UI the same importance. I like Googel services and hope one day that Google can provide all the services I need. more abt. me...
