    J.D. Salinger uses this first example of imagery in The Catcher in the Rye to show that the things we see in the world can change how we view the world and the people in it. “There didn't look like there was anything in the park except dog crap and globs of spit and cigar butts from old men, and the benches all looked like they'd be wet if you sat down on them” (Salinger 124). Using the park, Salinger uses imagery to show the way Holden sees the world. Through Holden’s sense of sight, he sees…

    As the animals do not have the greatest memory, or great literacy, when the commandments are changed to fit the pig's needs, any doubts that the animals may have are blamed on faults in the animal's memory. One of the only literate animals on the farm, Muriel, is unable to remember what the original commandments stated; meaning, she cannot decipher if there was a change in the commandments. The power of literacy is clearly shown when the pigs take advantage of the other animal's illiteracy…

    The Power of Language Compelling language has the power to influence the thoughts and emotions of people and can effectively move people to a decision. In the novel Animal Farm, the propagandist Squealer was “a brilliant talker,” (13), and that “he could turn black into white,” (13) because of his words. His convincing words influenced the animals in many ways, such as justifying Napoleon’s decisions, giving motivation to the animals, and explaining why some events occur. Words are capable of…
