    Orwell illustrates that Mr. Jones's corruption and haughtiness results in the animals' anger and hostility. This irritation is built upon Jones's evil and opportunist character who sells his animals and their products -as Major has said- "to bring in money for [him] and his men" (Orwell 8). Furthermore, Jones is neglecting his farm and "[has] taken to drinking more than was good for him" (Orwell 18), and the worst thing is that he has kept his animals without food which fuels their anger and leads to the beginning of a new age and the end of Jones's ruling. So the animals have been very furious that everything has been uncontrollable.…

    The world-famous classic fable Animal Farm, written by George Orwell, showcases the perversion of a revolution that went wrong in a critique of the Russian Revolution. One of the key themes in the novel indicates that a populations’ ignorance can lead to their social and political oppression. This was exemplified by the animals’ behaviour in the text through their toleration of manipulating the seven commandments, their constant state of believing what they were told, and the gradual decline into tyranny which they lacked the knowledge to express their misgivings over. The animals’ ignorance of the repression of the original ideas of ‘Animalism’ ultimately led to the corruption exhibited in Animal Farm.…

Absolute power is like the authority Tsar Nicholas II had before the Russian Revolution. The Tsar has a divine right to rule, therefore, his decision, once made, was final. The President of the United States’ power is nothing compared to the Tsar’s absolute power.…

    The two set texts that we’ve studied during the term, Animal Farm, written by George Orwell, and Divergent, Directed by Neil Norman Burger, both show through different ways, a society that wishes and strives to be equal. This essay will focus on to what extent an equal society can be created when comparing the above quote to both Animal Farm and Divergent. During my writing, I will look at the fact that both societies displayed in both texts tend to have a leader from the very start, and also look at how each displayed society has been affected by disagreement and the violence caused by that disagreement. The fact that a society won’t know what to do unless a leader appears to tell them will quickly eliminate an equal society from being possible.…

    Violence and Corruption of Leaders “They had come to a time when no one dared speak his mind, when fierce, growling dogs roamed everywhere, and when you had to watch your comrades torn to pieces after confessing to shocking crimes” (Orwell 87) This is the scene for George Orwell’s Animal Farm, where pigs take over governmental rule after driving out the tyrannical Mr. Jones. Although the new government was designed from ideas of equality, corruption amongst the pigs leads to a reign of terror equal to or worse than that of Mr. Jones. Orwell’s intention in writing Animal Farm was to indirectly critique the ruling of the newly formed Soviet Union, therefore many characters in the novel are related to prominent leaders after the Russian…
