Leon Trotsky And George Orwell


            
            
             Leon Trotsky's real name was Davidovich Bronstein. He was born in Elisavetad, Russia on Nov. George Orwell's characters come into similarities with Leon Trotsky's life events. Big Brother, Winston, and O"Brien together have a little bit of Leon Trotsky characteristics in them. Orwell's influence on Trotsky probably made him compare him to his character in 1984. .
             George Orwell's 1984 character Winston comes into similarity with Leon Trotsky with his fatherly like love for O"Brien. Winston really doesn't know anything about him, but has that feeling that O"Brien is in the Inner Party. Winston has so much hate for the government formed by Big Brother. Leon Trotsky relied on the proletarians to over-throw the capital. Although he had sided with the Mensheviks at the 1903 party split. He found his way to center himself between both the Mensheviks and Bolsheviks. Leon Trotsky and Linen were close together on their decisions, were as Winston looked up to O"Brien for advise about what he should do. Trotsky also compares to some of the events that accrued with Winston in the book. Winston gets in trouble with Big Brother and his government for betraying him and breaking the laws. Leon Trotsky was sent to jail several times because of his acts of rebellion. .
             Big Brother, like Trotsky, was an all-powerful leader. Big Brother is an all- knowing figure who sees and knows all. His is loved by the inner party but in Winston case, as an outer party hates him. In the End Winston forced to love Big Brother and therefore loses humanity because he gave up on Julia to accumulate himself from the tortures brought upon him during the room 101 incident. Trotsky proved to be impatient to work carefully at practical politics after Lenin's death therefore he was stripped of all posts and expelled from the party. (Rosenberg).
             Both of these leading figures have many differences with Orwell's book but the outline of both of the lives of Winston, Big Brother also have many similarities with the life of Trotsky.
