ReplyDelete1/The life under Jones and Napoleon
ReplyDelete-Life under Jones was like working for monthly salary, as long as you work hard and get what he wants, he’ll give you everything you want, and he’ll even take care of you.
-Life under Napoleon was just a disaster, full of corruption, exploiting his people for his benefits.
2/Old Major
-Old Major uses a strongly and firmly stating his feelings to manipulate his own people
3/Explain
-In the story, Mollie was just a background character that represents the people who doesn’t really embrace the changes. Moses is a calm, tamed, collective, spy raven that’s like a spy for other countries.
4/Examine
-Orwell’s tone was empowering and strongly and he did that to manipulates those people to believe. Orwell’s tone
5/Human character are the references to animal farm, animal farm illustrates. Take Mr. Jones for an example, he’s basically like Russian Czar, before when communism kicks in. Everything was sort of in control when Mr. Jones took care but later on Josept Stalin aka Napolean was not the best and yeah.
6/ Based on what was shown in Orwell's speech and works, there would be a disagreement on political system that talks about freedom and individual voice. One of the themes is the result of a order that eliminate anyone to speaks up. Orwell would support a system where they are allow to speak up for themselves or even others without any consequences.
