The Most Harmful To Society In Animal Farm, By George Orwell

When he was working for his brother, Benjamin was the apprentice of booksellers. While working for his brother all he really was giving to eat and drink was often only had a glass of water, handful of raisin and a slice of bread to eat.

None of the animals seemed to quite understand what the two pigs seemed to talk about they weren't informed properly. If the animals couldn't make informed choices, then they couldn't make good choices. Some animals had the proper education and learned to read and write. These same animals had such a lack of intelligence that they couldn't figure out what the pigs were talking about.

In return, all James did was slander Benjamin’s name throughout the community so he wouldn’t be able to find work anywhere else. This was a big challenge for Benjamin because not only did he have a bad name that lasted quite a long time but he also had to force himself to move to distant places like New York and Pennsylvania. He had to travel under dangerous conditions across seas to find another job. Also another challenge Benjamin faced after leaving his fathers job, was that he couldn’t find a long stable and suitable job for himself. He always faced problems at every new job he joined. On his way to New York, Benjamin meets Bradford, who was not able to offer him any jobs. But he refers Benjamin to his son Andrew who was a printer in Pennsylvania. When Benjamin gets to Pennsylvania, Andrew did not have a job to offer him. Then Andrew refers him to go work for Keimer, who is also another printer. Although Keimer gave Benjamin work, but it doesn’t last long. He later stops living with Keimer and ends up leaving the job. From these events in his life we are able to see the cycle and pattern, and he might face similar challenges in the future. Benjamin gets pushed around from places to places to find a jobs with very few people recognizing his ability and passion to write, and how much of an intellectual, he was. He wasn’t able to save up his money due

Animal Farm is a novel written by George Orwell. Orwell wrote it as an allegory from the beginning of the Russian revolution to the end of World War II. George Orwell put several little warnings in the book that can teach children of today not do these things. Some of these warnings are things that your parents would say to you like, “Stay in school.”

Ben is also a very peculiar character.  The audience first encounters him with the full knowledge that he is dead.  Ben is also the one figure that is able to move freely between the past and the present.  Because Ben represents that which Willy seeks, Willy feels that he can achieve his goal the same way that Ben did and so he believes that "opportunism, cheating and cruelty are success incarnate" (Smith).

In the book Half Brother, by Kenneth Oppel, Ben Tomlin is a very thoughtful person because he is considerate, caring, friendly, and kindhearted. Ben Tomlin, the main character in the book, lives in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada with his mom, dad, and a chimpanzee, Zan. Some things about Ben is that he has curly hair, he likes to play Risk and pinball, and he does cross-country and photography. First of all, Ben is a thoughtful person because he is considerate of others, especially his friends and family. An example that proves this is can be found in Half Brother, by Kenneth Oppel on page 371, said by Ben. “I paused, because this part was hard to admit. ‘I didn’t love you at first, Zan. I thought you were weird, and I guess I was jealous, and sometimes I didn’t want you at all. But that didn’t last long. You were my little brother. I really felt that. That was never fake.’” This quote explains that even though Zan is a chimpanzee, Ben still loves him because he cares for him and wants what’s best for Zan, which is a family. Another time where Ben shows his thoughtfulness by being considerate of others is when he understands why Zan is being crazy. Even though Zan is fooling around and he can’t stop him, he is not mad at Zan because he knows that Zan is an animal after all, even though his family is raising him like a human. He knows that Zan is only having his temper tantrum and he knows that he can’t stop him because he is an animal, not a human. In Half Brother, by

He makes sure Ren is safe and risks being arrested for to make sure the he, Ren, and Tom have money for food. He also makes sure that Ren will have a place to stay at the end of the book before he leaves. He does this by tricking McGinty into giving Ren his factory and all of his wealth in his will. If McGinty had caught Benjamin, McGinty would have killed him, but Benjamin still did this to look after Ren.

Because James did not like that Ben was already a better writer and printer than he was, he often mistreated him and also would not let him publish anything in the newspaper which was called the “New England Courant”. Because of this Ben would secretly write letters to the print shop, using the fake name of “Silence Dogood”, which included many good bits of advice and, James’ favorite, criticisms against many institutes, some as pretentious as the university of Harvard! As many people would agree, Ben had a great number of accomplishments in his early life as well as his later life.

During Ben's ophthalmology appointment Judah asks Ben If he can confide in him about a personal matter, confesses his infidelity and ask for direction. Ben replies by describing their two opposing moral pathways “It’s a fundamental difference in the way we view the world. You see it as harsh and empty of values and pitiless. And I couldn’t go on living if I didn’t feel it with all my heart a moral structure, with real meaning, and forgiveness, and a higher power, otherwise there’s no basis to live.” Even though Judah thinks of himself as a good moral person he believes it is a natural weakness in life. Albeit he feels remorse for the affair he doesn’t believe that outweighs the righteous things he has accomplished and he doesn’t feel that he

Now in the literary story Benjamin has a grandfather who at the start was antagonized, became to enjoy his grandson’s company. It is a brief account of his grandfather but a meaningful one as this was the first one who gave him a sense of acceptance. The film version gave him acceptance through Queenie and we never get to know a grandfather; though one could say the patrons at the old folk’s home could have been grandparent surrogates for Benjamin. The patrons at the old folks home taught him many things but his experience living there taught him not to fear death and what loss was about which, in a sense, desensitized the character so that when Queenie passes he is not visibly upset.

what it really said, they would either have to ask Benjamin or the pigs for

In relation to the disability theory, Ben becomes less human. He loses certain characteristics and becomes abundantly incapacitated. Each of the form of species is becoming more simpleminded than the next. He believes that everyone thinks too much and that “Our brains are getting bigger…and dies when there’s too much thought and not enough heart.” The fact that he believes humans are beginning to overthink things and are becoming smarter, symbolizes the way he reverse evolves into simpler species. The forms that he devolves into don’t think as complex as humans do. Specifically, as he devolves, the specie he forms into at the end is a “one-celled wonder…brainless…” Furthermore, he worries a considerable amount about overthinking and forms into a species that doesn’t think at all. He is less of a man and more of a “lesser minded” animal. Through each species that he forms into he then decreases as a man; for instance, he first turns into a baboon, which still has traits similar to humans then into a completely nonhuman form, a salamander. Animals don’t use the mind to the standard of humans. It appears that Ben assimilated into different species to “recapture the ‘heart’ of life” In this way, Ben disables himself from other human beings, but is able to become emotionally connected with

A perfect society. Something we long and hope for, and work towards to achieve for our future. We picture this society in many different ways, including things like equality, no poverty, and everyone being taken care of among many things. However, we have not become this perfect society yet. This makes you start to wonder, what is preventing this perfect society that we all share a vision of? The perfect society would contain things like equality, happiness, and unity. However, these things are counteracted by greediness, other’s misery, and the fight for power.

Tyranny has always been present in human history from Joseph Stalin to Adolf Hitler they have all taken advantage of the public and used them to their own advantage and personal needs. In the story Animal Farm by George Orwell this tyrannical, totalitarian, and corrupt form of government is seen. In the story the tired animals organize a rebellion against their owner and drive him out. They create their own government, with the pigs assuming control. But the corrupt pigs take advantage of this power entrusted to them, and oppress the animal for their own benefit. Even though the pigs abused the power they had, The naive and gullible animals themselves were the ones responsible for the pigs’ quick rise to power and control because the animals were tricked into supporting the pigs evil plans, they were too braindead to organize and execute a rebellion even after they realized the pigs were up to no good, and they were so foolish that they even supported the expulsion of snowball, the only good pig that worked for the good of the other animals.

“All animals are equal but some animals are more equal than others.” In George Orwell’s novel, Animal Farm, farm animals drive out their farmer and live in an environment where all animals are equal. However, the pigs, the smartest animals on the farm, end up taking over the farm and controlling all the animals. They trick the animals into believing they are doing everything for the benefit of the farm, when in reality they are doing it for themselves. The famous quote mentioned in this novel not only explains a scene in the book; it also shows the Orwell’s true purpose for writing the story: his hatred towards communism and Stalin’s rule. An author shows his or her purpose through the text’s hidden meanings, the structure of the text, the sequence of events, and the diction of the text.
