George Orwell 's Animal Farm

People respond to control and power differently for various reasons, however, one of the main reasons is based on their personality; their confidence and intelligence. In, Animal Farm by George Orwell, confidence and intelligence is a big factor for why certain animals obtained power and control and why other ones did not. People with confidence and intelligence are likely to gain most of the control and power. People with little intelligence, but lots of confidence are more likely to have some power or work underneath the leader. People with intelligence, but no confidence seem to have no power at all and shy away from it. Both intelligence and confidence are needed for someone to take total power. Therefore, the amount of confidence and intelligence a person has will decide how they respond to control and power.

Revolutions are started by communities that are unhappy with how they are living their lives. Revolution is a way to create change. However, in many revolutions new leaders emerge and will sometimes create a life that is worse than it was to begin with. This happens throughout the book Animal Farm by George Orwell. In this essay, I will talk about how Napoleon takes food away from the other animals, how Napoleon classifies himself, using these topics, I will provide evidence and explain how Napoleon and the other pigs became just like those they overthrew and denounced. The revolution in Animal Farm began because Mr. Jones, the owner of the farm, used the animals to benefit his own well-being. Now after the revolution,

Societies are built on a hierarchy. There is a leader, an upper class, a middle class, and a lower class. This representation of human society is built by our natural need for a leader no matter how tyrannical. George Orwell firmly exposes and attacks this flaw of human nature in his allegorical novel, Animal Farm. In Animal Farm Orwell displays situations mirroring that of the Russian Revolution, and how it failed to produce the utopia that was promised out of the revolution. George Orwell, before writing the novel, was disillusioned by the Communist revolution, a revolution that promised to provide all its people with a government that owned everything, but in turn was owned by the people. Orwell quickly concluded that all revolutions will fail, as the Russian Revolution did, because those who attain power are then corrupted by it. In this view of revolutionary efforts Orwell presents his views on human nature as a whole, that humans are unable to maintain an utopia, unable to abstain for consuming power, and that humans will subjugate and oppress one another if given the power to do so.

When people are ruled by an oppressive government, they all resort to a rebellion, unfortunately, at the end they are the ones that become the government they had rebelled against. This cycle of revolution is depicted in Animal Farm, a fairy story by George Orwell. In this novel, animals, specifically pigs, come to realize that they are not treated with the proper care that they deserve. The animals feel the need to rebel, little do they know it will lead to their demise. Orwell discusses the concept of corrupt leaders in power, of individuals grasping power for their own benefit, and of ignorant individuals being manipulated by the powerful.

George Orwell’s Animal Farm is, first and foremost, a political satire warning against the pursuit of utopian desires through unjust and oppressive means. Operating under the pretense of an animal fable, Orwell disparages the use of political power to poach personal freedom. He effectively alerts his readers to the dangerous price that can accompany the so-called “pursuit of progress”. And he illuminates how governments acting under the guise of increasing independence often do just the opposite: increase oppression and sacrifice sovereignty. While the cautionary theme Orwell provides proves widely applicable, in reality his novel focuses on one tale of totalitarian abuse: Soviet Russia. The parallels between the society Orwell presents in his Animal Farm and the Soviet Union – from the Russian revolution to Stalin’s supremacy – are seemingly endless. Manor Farm represents Tsarist Russia, Animalism compares to Stalinism, and Animal Farm, with the pig Napoleon at its helm, clearly symbolizes Communist Russia and Joseph Stalin. But Orwell does more than simply align fiction with fact. He fundamentally attacks Soviet Russia at its core. And in so doing he reveals how the Communist Party simply replaced a bad system with a worse one, overthrowing an imperial autocracy for a totalitarian dictatorship. This essay will demonstrate that Orwell’s Animal Farm is

Revolutions are supposed to induce a new and improved government system. However, in George Orwell's Animal Farm, an attempt to overthrow a human dictator results in an even more corrupt leader taking over. The remaining animals, too ignorant and powerless to defend themselves, are left struggling to survive under dangerous living conditions along with daily threats of starvation, exhaustion, and execution. In Animal Farm, George Orwell asserts the idea that absolute power results in corruption. Napoleon and the other pigs, interested in remaining superior, persuade the other animals by using intimidation and emotional appeals in order to keep control of the gullible animals.

Elie Wiesel in Night and Snowball from Animal Farm are very similar characters because they were victimized by tyrants and used as scapegoats, but they are also unique and individual characters because Elie knew he was being taken advantage of and Snowball did not. Animal Farm is written by George Orwell, and it is about a farm of animals that take over the farm. Napoleon, a large pig, slowly takes away food and supplies from the other animals until he starts walking on two feet and becomes a “human.” Because of him Snowball is expelled from the farm and acts as a scapegoat for everything that goes wrong on the farm. Night is an autobiography written by Elie Wiesel, and in it Elie tells the story of he was taken from his home and put into a concentration camp under the control of Adolf Hitler.

The cunning dictator Joseph Stalin once said “I believe in one thing only, the power of human will.” Revolution can be inevitable in certain situations and a very powerful motivation for the wrong reasons. George Orwell depicts revolution in Animal Farm through use of character portrayal, symbolism and a steady process and progression.

The Narrator claims,“In past years Mr. Jones, although a hard master, had been a capable farmer, but of late he had fallen on evil days”(Orwell 38). In Animal Farm, George Orwell describes life for the animals on a farm in the English countryside during the mid to early 20th century before, during and after a revolution against their master, Mr.Jones. Orwell does this to represent the Russian revolution and describe to people throughout the free world how leaders in both capitalist and communist societies oppress the working class. As a result Orwell 's tone throughout the novel is concerned. Tsar Nicholas II led Russia into failure in the Russo-Japanese war as well as World War I and allowed the shootings of over one thousand protesters

In times of revolutionary upheaval, a society can become governed by powerful and abusive leadership. George Orwell brings this idea to full fruition in his satirical narrative, Animal Farm. The revolution within Manor Farm by way of the animals, is comparable to the vast changes which occurred in early 20th century Russia. The rebellion which took place in Russia was supposed to improve society but as in the story, powerful nondemocratic authorities took over.

Good morning teachers and fellow students, my name is George Orwell, the author of the book “Animal Farm”.

I also described Stalin and communism in the Soviet Union as an insincere and a violent

In George Orwell’s book Animal Farm, which is an allegory of the Russian Communist revolution that occurred in the early XX century, is narrated the establishment and evolution of a totalitarian system which is ruled by the pigs, under the supreme control of Napoleon, corresponding to Stalin in the Soviet context.

George Orwell’s Animal Farm is an allegoric, political satire rich in manipulation of language. In fact, some believe it was written for the purpose of portraying the Russian Revolution of 1917 and many years following which concluded in a “more oppressive, totalitarian, and far more deadly” government than its predecessors. Each of Orwell’s characters is also believed to represent principal figures of that time. The story opens on Manor Farm, an English farm owned and operated by a Mr. Jones. Old Major, the prized pig of the farm, and eldest, fears that he will die soon and wants to leave behind a legacy by educating the other farm animals on how they are being misused. He calls a meeting
