Use Of Milk In Animal Farm

Improved Essays
As Animal Farm has become a self sustaining farm with no human master, the responsibility of milking the cows eventually landed on the pigs who were now seen as the new leaders.

After doing their very best in milking the cows, using their trotters as substitutes for hands, five pails of rich and creamy milk were collected.

The animals on animal farm looked at the buckets of milk that were once empty but now filled to the brim with excitement and captivation as they waited patiently for the pigs to inform them what they were going to do with these much milk.

After a moment of silence, seeing that the pigs were not going to say anything about what they were planning to use the milk for, one of the fellow comrades curiously questioned “What

    he took time to look each animal in the eye, making his way around the room to show he was speaking to them all. “Napoleon and his minions are beyond corrupt comrades, this is not what we worked so hard for. This is not Animal Farm.” Animals began to nod in agreement, unsure of what was going on, but hopeful in hearing a pig speak against their corrupt and tyrannical leader. Clover, with a scratchy grief torn voice, whispered out “They killed Muriel.”…

    Both Martin Niemoller and George Orwell tell a story of how one group of power took control and destroyed another group. The major difference is both how a group or individual could have stopped it, and the hope, or lesson, on how it could not occur again. In Animal Farm, the overall fault lies in the group, even if Napoleon created the rules on how to run their new animal world, it was the overall group that allowed these rules to go unchallenged. It was the group that allowed the pigs to break these rules without having to pay for their disobedience, even if the pigs came up with a clever way to justify their rule breaking, the animals still allowed this to happen again and again. In reality the physical hierarchy of the farm was pigs vs horses,…

    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.…

    I believe that freedoms should be demanded. Freedom is both a luxury and a right. It is true that all people deserve to have freedoms, but they do not always get them. Throughout history, there have been many points where they were withheld from people because of religion, race or anything that made them a social anomaly. A famous example of this is the period of brutal racism and prejudice in the United States that sparked uproar and protest from the African-American community of that time.…

    Leadership is presented in Animal Farm through supreme hierarchy. Ideas such as “on a sort of raised platform” and “all animals are equal but some animals are more equal than others” are used to demonstrate the hierarchy of the pig’s status on the farm. The reference ‘on a sort of raised platform’ connotes how he is metaphorically up and literally up in the hierarchy. The constructive dynamic verb ‘raised’ proposes how extraordinary high he is up on the chain of command and how everyone pays attention to him because they admire him. Also, the positive concrete noun ‘platfrom’ shows how good a communicator…

    Cows, for the most part, have been perceived as innocent creatures throughout the centuries. In various judicial systems, humans, too, are thought to be innocent until proven guilty. As history has shown on many occasions during times of war, innocent people are killed needlessly. In “A Mother’s Tale”, written by James Agee, a mother cow warns her cattle of the gruesome deeds inflicted upon cattle who travel out onto the range through the telling of the tale of the One Who Came Back. The One Who Came Back went through numerous trials, such as the denial of basic necessities and the sensation of being skinned alive, when he was chosen to ‘retire’ on the range.…

    Neil Gaiman depicts human actions in relation to animal slaughter for food, clothing, testing chemicals, other uses, and animal cruelty in general in Babycakes. Using first-person point of view as an observer-participant, indirect characterization allows reader to listen to the character's thoughts about the matter. Additionally, it appears inclusive rather than hypocritical separation of one who actually belongs to the population who contribute in one way or another to animal violence. Themed with animal cruelty and sustainability, it subtly transitioned its focus towards mocking human intellect of being smart and thinking too highly of our existence over other living sentient creatures such as animals and babies yet inflicting self-damaging results. Starting off with some quite a mysterious feel of one day no longer finding any animals, it was composed to create a tension build up that leads to a disturbing atmosphere…
