CASTRO, Juliana de Miranda e. The actuality of newspeak. Psyche (Sao Paulo) [online]. 2008, vol.12, n.22, pp. 113-124. ISSN 1415-1138.

We use Orwell’s reflections in 1984 about the extreme subjective non-responsibility, passing through Arendt and subjective responsibility question, with the intention to approach Orwell’s newspeak to that established by Czermak about current days text, defined by him as paranoiac. Thus, we could observe that present time text, exactly as the newspeak, present statements without enunciation.
