Answer nineteen eighty four. Fun Fact nineteen
56

eighty four, a dystopian novel by
British author George Orwell, has become a
57
00:04:44.959 --> 00:04:49.800
classic of political fiction and a powerful
warning against the dangers of totalitarianism. The
58
00:04:49.879 --> 00:04:55.399
book, which was published in nineteen
forty nine, imagines a future world where
59
00:04:55.399 --> 00:05:00.759
a totalitarian government led by the all
seeing figure of Big Brother, rolls every
60
00:05:00.839 --> 00:05:04.360
aspect of people's lives, from their
thoughts and behaviors to their language and history.

The novel's protagonist, Winston Smith,
rebels against the oppressive regime and falls

00:05:10.759 --> 00:05:15.480
in love with a woman named Julia, but their relationship is ultimately doomed by
63
00:05:15.480 --> 00:05:19.439
the power of the state. The
book's chilling depiction of mass surveillance, propaganda,
64
00:05:19.680 --> 00:05:25.199
and the manipulation of truth has made
it an enduring symbol of resistance against
65
00:05:25.240 --> 00:05:30.399
authoritarianism, and its themes and language
have entered the popular lexicon, with phrases
66
00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:34.759
like big Brother is watching You and
double think becoming part of our cultural vocabulary.

Question five asked which classic Russian novel
written by Leo Tolstoy and published in
68
00:05:41.680 --> 00:05:46.319
eighteen sixty nine tells the story of
a tragic heroine, Anna Karenina. Fun
69
00:05:46.360 --> 00:05:51.040
fact. Anna Karenina, a novel

74
00:06:11.120 --> 00:06:15.839

its philosophical and moral themes have made it
75
00:06:15.879 --> 00:06:20.120
a timeless classic, admired by readers
and critics alike. Tolstoy, who is

deep spiritual and political convictions, used Anna
