Animal Farm In today's world animals are treated badly and are overworked in difficult conditions. In George Orwell's Animal Farm, the idea of animalism and lack of freedom is shown. Old Major gave an inspiring speech about how animals coexist without humans. After not being fed, the animals attack Jones and end up taking over the farm. The animals survive on the farm by giving commandments, assigning tasks, and soon electing a leader. With Snowball and Napoleon guiding them, they soon stumble upon an extraordinary idea that could shorten the work week. After arguing over the different views they both had on the windmill, Napoleon trains the dogs to attack Snowball. With Napoleon now as leader and Squealer as his spokesman, they both run "Animal Farm". With the victory in the Battle of the Barn the animals begin to have hope, after the windmill was knocked down by humans everything collapses. After years of mistreatment the animals decide to fight back. They unknowingly place themselves under a manipulative leader. The animals soon believe that Napoleon is always right. In the end they lose their strongest and most devoted animal, the Boxer. To provide a life of luxury for Napoleon and his fellow pigs, Napoleon (with Squealer as his mouthpiece) uses language that intimidates, language that distorts the truth, and language that appeals to the emotions of others to manipulate the naive animals of the farm.Squealer uses language to intimidate farm animals. Squealer explains the new changes and arrangements and how hard Napoleon worked on them. “'Comrades, I trust that every animal here appreciates the sacrifices that Comrade Napoleon made in the...... middle of paper ......r added "without reason" because Napoleon had a reason for killing animals . Food supplies were low on the farm, so Squealer explained this to the animals. “For the time being, certainly, it has been found necessary to make a readjustment of the rations, but compared to Jones's time, the improvement is enormous.”(112-113) Squealer uses readjustment instead of reduction so that everyone may not think that they receive much less food. To provide a life of luxury for Napoleon and his fellow pigs, Napoleon (with Squealer as his mouthpiece) uses language that intimidates, distorts the truth, and appeals to the emotion of others to manipulate the naive animals of Animal Farm . Clarinet uses different forms of language to get something done or to make the animals work harder. Eventually the pigs begin to become like humans and even walk on two legs.
