1951 Good Reading (Princeton Univ.) Feb. 7/1 A beautifully written and powerful book which has introduced into the vocabulary of its readers the words ‘nineteen eighty-four’ to describe an authoritarian world in which man has been dehumanized.

1956 Times 13 July 9/2 People feared that the new machines would further enslave them, and that skilled workers would sink into the proletariat. Nineteen eighty-four loomed ominously.

1961 L. Mumford City in Hist. xvii. 527 Whether they extrapolate 1960 or anticipate 2060 their goal is actually ‘1984’.

1970 Time 16 Nov. 14 The political uses of television advertising and packaging of candidates were heralded..as the ominous forerunner of 1984.

1990 Lancet 29 Sept. 781/1 As he proceeds down his path into the uncertain 1990s, Mr. Clarke's approach befits 1984.

2002 N.Y. Times (Electronic ed.) 28 July We don't want to see a ‘1984’ Orwellian-type situation here where neighbors are reporting on neighbors.
