Animal Farm

Orwell’s Animal Farm is an allegorically written story about the Russian Revolution specifically and for themes related to power and politics. Like lies and deceit, cunning and cleverness as well as dreams hopes and plans. In the way these are told, Orwell expresses them allegorically in many ways. The pigs, because of their intellectual advantage play the themes cunning and cleverness because of their power and the way they control the farm with their brainwashed dog soldiers, combined with lies and deceit; this also relates to power and politics in the way they speak and rule. Orwell shows his thoughts of dreams hopes and plans in the building and completion of the windmill, the determination of the animals for a better future for generations

The raven Moses possibly helped Napoleon by doing this because of the place he kept mentioning called Candy Mountain. It was the place where animals went after they die; what if Napoleon manipulated Moses into repeating it over and over to make the animals work harder. The cunning and cleverness is also seen allegorically in this part of the story in the way Napoleon and the other pigs control the other less intelligent animals, but also in the way that he has control over the dogs as soldiers which also relates to power and politics as well as a tyrannic rule. The pigs can be allegorically seen though, not seen as selfish twits. They decide to have a windmill built for the farm, even though the animals are deceived of this Napoleon plants barley in the field where old animals rest and he started trading with the outside world. The pigs seem to not be as ruthless and barbaric, Orwell may have wanted people to allegorically see them this way and recognise Napoleon as a leader with Dreams, Hopes and plans. The windmill would provide power and the barley could be crafted into alcohol, which could be sold to traders and foreign merchants; Napoleon had dreams for future generations to thrive and support the upkeep of the

The two animals that were most determined to achieve their full potential of work on the farm were Benjamin and boxer. They worked on the windmill, they worked hours and hours after the other workers completed their shifts to finish it. Boxer portrays the physical power in this situation being more open and powerful then Benjamin who has more Mental power and is more reserved and only speaks when needed. This also relates to politics in they way you need someone to be able to do all the work, talking and someone to think of it or say it when needed. Orwell may have also wanted you to think that maybe Benjamin and boxer worked really hard and did many extra long hours to get it over and done with. This is allegorically seen many ways, they could’ve either wanted to finish it as quickly as possible, they were just really passionate about seeing it finished or they didn’t want other animals to get injured doing and thought it would be a very selfless thing to do. Napoleon’s dream was to one-day rule over all of the farms in England; this shows his lust for power and his want to politically rule over all of the Farms. The Pigs also dreamt of being and staying the most intelligent animals on all the farms and possibly the most intelligent land dwelling animal. Orwell somewhat arrayed senses of hopes,
