Seeking The Truth In Animal Farm By George Odwell

As the years elapsed the animals get the same about Napoleon. Benjamin was the only animal besides the pigs that could read. Clover had Alzheimer's. Moses secretly was hiding in the barn and Squealer was the only one that knew he was there. Benjamin and Clover had four miniature donkeys together.

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

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.

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.

In George Orwell’s novel, Animal Farm was based on a political allegory based on Orwell’s experience in the Revolution. The characters in the novel were based on those whom Orwell knew. Throughout the book, my understandings of the three characters Boxer, Mollie and Napoleon were of different personalities. There were a lot of conflicts both internal and external and the author used elements of satire to blend politics and art.

The setting of Animal Farm was in England and the different animals that were used to symbolize persons from the Spanish Civil War in the book were mainly pigs, horses and dogs etc. The novel basically tells the story of a group of animals who were ruled by pigs.

The English language is one of the most complex languages known to man. Words, sentences, and ideas can be built and misconstrued because of the language’s depth. In the novel Animal Farm, the head pigs in charge, Napoleon, twists words in order to gain control and power over the entire farm. The Manor Farm transforms from the totalitarian rule of Mr. Jones, a mean farmer who feeds his animals meager portions, to Napoleon, a pig that will have you liquidated for a bottle of liquor. Language is used as a means of social control because of its irony, it changes, and it’s illegible by some.

During the early 1900’s wars and revolutions were raging all around the world. George Orwell in Animal Farm expresses the political tendencies of those who have and those who lack education through characters such as Squealer, Napoleon, Muriel, and Benjamin. In Animal Farm, the message George Orwell sends to his audience is that there is power in obtaining an education that saves one from being bamboozled.

Within “three months” the pigs had “taught themselves to read and write,” which leads to them having the most power (Orwell 23).

Where there is good, there is evil. This simply implies that whatever you choose to do there is a purpose, either good or bad, even if unintentional. Everything in life has choice, even down to what you choose to say to others. Words are more powerful than we could imagine. They can be used for greeting one another, complimenting one another, but the meaning behind words can be manipulated. In George Orwell’s novel, Animal Farm, he shows the worst of manipulation in a setting of war. He demonstrates that words are just as powerful as weapons. Not only is it an outstanding novel, but it warns us what words under propaganda can do, from “Glittering” to the “Plain Folks”, and even evoking fear. Words allow the intelligent pigs to play the animals like puppets, and return them to slavery.

Animal farm introduces real life problems using animals on a farm. The narrator focuses on leaders. The novel taught me now you should believe those are seeking the truth- doubt those who find it. According to the novel Animal Farm by George Orwell it states, ‘‘Ah, that is different!" said Boxer. "If Comrade Napoleon says it, it must be right.’’ The reason for this is because Napoleon took control of the farm and found out a way to command people to do his responsibilities and jobs, its when the animals started to get blinded by him. They thought that whatever Napoleon said
