Chapter Summary Of George Orwell's 'Animal Farm'

For instance, the animals, under the command of Napoleon and Snowball, declare the Battle of Cowshed to end humans’ dominance over them at the Manor Farm. They choose brutal methods to torment their enemies, whom they consider as tyrants. Moreover, during the battle, Boxer, a naïve and strong male horse, accidently kills a boy. This proves the recklessness of violent behavior and how people engaged in a violent conflict target everyone, including the innocent such as children. Therefore, the violent behavior of the pigs and other animals once again reminds the reader of human cruelty, which makes it impossible for a utopic society to

But, it turns into a disaster and Napoleon, one of the pigs, takes over the farm by manipulating the animals and gets guard dogs. The authors obvious irony and symbolism helps support the theme that history repeats itself because no matter what, the bad and good are constantly on war, and only repeat rather than make progress. Napoleon and Mr. Jones are paralleled two characters that help represent that history repeats itself. Mr Jones was overthrown by Napoleon, but Napoleon later acted exactly like Mr. Jones. “The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and man to pig, and from pig to man again, but already it was impossible to say which was which.”

Instead of discussing matters with him, Napoleon ordered a pack of guard dogs to attack and chase him off the farm (17). This shows that Napoleon had waited for the right moment to overpower the other pig. This also shows that the guard dogs had been told a false truth to or bribed with benefits if they had gone with the plan and attacked Snowball without a second thought. In addition, Napoleon continues to change rules and make new

The pigs take something very valuable away from the animals on Animal Farm. The song they sang that inspired them and gave them the reminder of freedom is now forbidden for them to sing. This depicts how Squealer is taking away the past and now trying to twist the animals views of Animal Farm. Throughout the novel Squealer always adjusted to the techniques that he thinks the animals would best listen and agree to, whether it would be to make the animals fear or to transform the

Old Major dies soon afterwards. Animals inspired from Old Major’s speech revolt against Mr. Jones and his man. In the

He left after the revolution of the animals that Old Major begin. When he died, they begin the rebellion. When the farm was now for the animals, the pigs took the control of it. Napoleon begin to be in competition with Snowball, because he had a lot of idea, others liked him and he was the pig that decided the most.

The following speech is given by Clover soon after the pigs started sleeping in the Manor House. “My fellow comrades, I am here to tell you that the pigs are not good leaders. Now I know that this might come as a shock to everyone, but I want you to hear me out. Recently, we found out that the pigs started sleeping on the beds in the Manor House and at first, we were all disturbed and we all remembered a rule that banned animals from sleeping on beds, which is why we all confronted the pigs. But then Squealer convinced us that this was not the case.

When the boys crash-landed on the island they were mostly all innocent other than a few exceptions. The boy who the reader can see loses the most innocence is Jack. Jack is the choir leader and just wants more power, like a dictator. As the story goes on, the reader sees how Jack changes from an innocent choir boy to a pig obsessed ravenous killer. The point where the reader can see the most loss of innocence is when Jack and his hunters murdered the pig and smeared its blood on their faces.

They plot a rebellion against Mr. Jones and the mutiny is a success. Snowball and Napoleon lead the said rebellion, and renamed the Manor Farm to Animal Farm. The pigs became the leaders because of their intelligence and Napoleon proves to be hungry in power. He also appoints Squealer to be his assistant and spoke person.

The core values of AF are to do work. The core values of WD are to stay alive, be happy and be free. In AF, they get to the point about ¾ of the way through the book when the animals are woken up, they get food, go to work, get food and go to bed. That is a pretty dreary life.

“Abu wants us to be scared, responding with hatred and anger will only allow us to act in the same ignorance that has made Abu what Abu is.” Said Paris the pig. Within a second Abu crashed into the house growling and foaming at the mouth, at the sight of the panicking animals. His deathly nails protruding from his paws, he exclaims, “who’s first?!” He stood face to face with the three pigs, his teeth shimmering in the light, stained with blood. As the pigs stood with no fear whatsoever, the wolf stood, confused, “no fear?” questioned the wolf.

Old major requests other animals in the farm to meet in the barn after Mr.Jones get drunk and falls asleep. Major gives a speech about how evil the humans are and how they need to rebel against Man. Major also gives some warning to the animals about how the men harm their farm and order them to do a lot of work. After Major gives his elaborates in his speech, he goes on talking about his dream in which he sees no humans on the earth. Major then teaches the animals a song called “Beasts of England”, the animals sang it again and again until they awaken Mr. Jones.

This is when he first encounters the pig on a stick, which he names The Lord of the Flies. His fear allows him to hallucinate the sow talking to him and telling him that the savages were going to eventually kill him and letting him know that his evil was inside him and not physically terrorizing the boys on the island. The evil that the sow’s head spoke of was in the air as Simon crawled out of the forest after a fainting spell. Jack immediately took the initiative of telling his tribe to “Kill the beast! Cut his throat!

It might look like “The Three Little Pigs” and “The Marble Champ” by Gary Soto are different kinds of story. One is a fairytale from long time ago and one is a short story about kids from the the present time, but if you take a second look you'll realize that they both share a common theme. In both stories the authors teach us that if you keep trying you will succeed. In the “Three Little Pigs,” the author shows us that sometimes if take chances it gives you more possibility to succeed.

The story animal farm is a story about animals and in some ways it is related to Martin Luther king’s speech. There are many different things about it. Some people benefit from the situation of the stories and other don’t. I am going to talk about it in both of these in my essay. They are based upon how they are alike.
