View the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution from 1984 1984 is a political prophecy novel. It is written by George Orwell's in 1945. The purpose of the article is to criticize totalitarianism.
When I read the book, what impresses me most is the superiority of the party .There are too much similar between the phenomenon that are mentioned in the "1984" and the period of the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution. It is invincible.“who controls the past controls the future; who controls the present controls the past .”However , it is the party who controls the present, that is to say, it controls everything anytime. It always make up lies and changes the history to maintain its own status. What's more, people lost their freedom. The cult of personality get to the unprecedented state of madness.
Just by reading the life that Winston has experienced, I feel tortured. I can't imagine that human live in such a social that is spiritual desolation, lack of material, have high pressure . What is the difference between this and death? It is hard for me to imagine that is so luxury to ensure the freedom of spirit and worship, food and clothing, and meet the kinship and friendship. "1984" overturned my cognition to society. It can be seen the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution brings much pain. The people who have no independent soul can't wake up from slavery to against them, in the social people can’t have independent personality and sound mind. There is no doubt that Wins-ton has some independent spirit, he tried to rebel the society, and escape from the monitoring of big brother, even if only in mind. I think Winston is not only one person, but also represent the people who live in the morbid society to
endure pain. He wants to do all the things which are in violation of regulations, he want to keep all the things that the party want to erase, he even wants to risk his life to take part in the revolution against big brother, he feel excited for all reactionary things, and realize it enthusiastically. Even if Winston can’t succeed to revolt,end up in a form of subversion of the self, the spirit of freedom that he dare to struggle to pursue let a person feel a trace of joy.
After reading the "1984", I have benefited a lot from it . And it gives me a huge impact on my mind. This book is not only a prediction of social problem, but also a kind of warning. On this road we should avoid similar issues happening, do the real freedom and democracy, Only if we can road towards to the smoothly and democracy prosperous future.。
