    Seuss has received around his career, as a propagandist, is undeserved. Many author-artists’, such as Dr. Seuss and similarly as Herblock and Walt Disney, joined the propaganda realm during the 1940s in order to make a war effort. Dennis Nyback, a New York independent film archivist and historian, exclaims, “There’s this view of Dr. Seuss that’s pretty much two-dimensional” which is extremely accurate, as he is regarded as a content and admirable individual (McMurtie). Society needs to broaden their image of Dr. Seuss, as he is a complex human being, just like the rest of the world. He has his flaws and his own opinions that were appropriate to the period he was raised in.…

    Dr. Seuss’s The Lorax offers an animated analogy of how man’s actions have recursive actions towards the ecological balance of nature. The film largely emphasises on the artificiality of nature within Thneedville. While its citizens seem unfazed by the lack of natural resources, it is apparent that Dr. Seuss is portraying their oblivion towards the scarcity of nature itself. However, though the lack of natural resources may result in a polluted or contaminated environment, the clean outlook of Thneedville creates suspicion amongst its audience with regards to the city’s sustainable responsibility. Thus, the film establishes an anthropocentric scope that triggers public consciousness towards environmental and wildlife conservation.…
