Als junger Mann stand er zwar kommunistischen Ideen offen gegenüber und in seinen frühen Texten finden sich auch antisemitische Vorurteile, doch mit der Zeit und in reiferen Jahren distanzierte sich Orwell öffentlich und in seinen schriftstellerischen Werken ohne Wenn und Aber von seinen jugendlichen Dummheiten.

"Maelzel's Chess Player" (1836) is an essay by Edgar Allan Poe exposing a fraudulent automaton chess player called The Turk, which had become famous in Europe and the United States and toured widely. The fake automaton was invented by Wolfgang von Kempelen in 1769 and was brought to the U.S. in 1825 by Johann Nepomuk Mälzel after von Kempelen's death. In his essay, Poe asserts that a mechanical chess player would play perfectly, but Maelzel's "machine" occasionally errs, and is therefore suspect. Although it is the most famous essay on the Turk, many of Poe's hypotheses were incorrect.
