- bovine3dom 6y agoYeah - perhaps you missed it, but it says "Keep in mind George Orwell's six elementary rules ("Politics and the English Language", 1946)" just before it enumerates them. I think lots of good style guides quote them. My favourite is probably Kingsley Amis's "The King's English". It has the distinct "old man shouts at clouds" energy that one gets best from posthumous volumes.
