The novel, Animal Farm, depicts a group of farm animals who rebel against their human owners and take control of the farm themselves

1.The novel, Animal Farm, depicts a group of farm animals who rebel against their human owners and take control of the farm themselves. Old Major, an aging boar, gathers the animals and tells them he had a dream where he remembered the lyrics to Beasts of England. He speaks to the animals, telling them to rebel against their human oppressors. He argues that humans are the cause of all animal suffering and that animals will do much better without them. Shortly after Old Major dies, the animals rebel against Mr. Jones, their owner, kicking him and the rest of the humans off the property.The farm runs smoothly for some time. The animals are motivated to work hard because of their newfound freedom and equality. The pigs, who are the smartest animals on the farm, take managerial roles, while the other animals do the physical labor. After some time, the pigs begin abusing their power. Two of them, Snowball and Napoleon, vie for leadership until Napoleon uses his army of dogs to run Snowball off the farm. He appoints himself as the leader.Conditions deteriorate on the farm. Some of the animals start seeing the issues, but no one speaks up. Benjamin, the donkey, finally speaks out when his friend Boxer (horse) is injured and sent to the glue factory. By the end of Animal Farm, the pigs have become far worse oppressors than the humans were.
2Three of the pigs, Napoleon, Snowball, and Squealer, set about making a formal school of thought based on Old Major's speech. They name the concept Animalism, and they create Seven Commandments that dictate the principles of Animalism. Whatever goes upon two legs is an enemy.Whatever goes upon four legs, or has wings, is a friend.No animal shall wear clothes.No animal shall sleep in a bed.No animal shall drink alcohol.No animal shall kill any other animal.All animals are equal. The Animal Farm Seven Commandments represent the basic ideas underlying Animalism. Old Major shared his beliefs that the animals should have equality and that they should run the farm for themselves. They do not need a human master. The humans take from the animals, and they treat them like slaves. Humans don't produce anything themselves. The commandments also act as the Animal Farm rules, dictating what the animals can and cannot do. In short, the animals cannot do anything that is inherently human. They can use machinery and other items necessary for farm work, but anything unnecessary or luxurious, like clothes, beds, and alcohol, is banned.As the pigs become tyrants, they send Squealer to secretly tweak the commandments during the night when everyone is asleep. Most of the other animals are unable to read, and the ones who can, such as the cynical donkey, Benjamin, do not pay attention.
1Whatever Goes upon Two Legs Is an Enemy.The first commandment instills the idea that Animalism and Animal Farm are for animals only. Its purpose is to exclude humans from their form of government.The sheep, who are the most ignorant animals on the farm, are unable to memorize the commandments, so they learn a shorter phrase: "Four legs good, two legs bad." This condensed line combines the first two commandments. The most important principle in Animalism is that the animals separate themselves from humans as much as possible. This line is omitted in the end because the pigs begin walking on two legs.2Whatever Goes Upon Four Legs, Or Has Wings, Is a FriendThe second commandment establishes the idea that all animals are friends. Like the first commandment, it is incorporated in the shortened version that is chanted by the sheep. This commandment does not change over the course of the novel, but it is also eliminated by the end of the book because the pigs start walking on two legs.3No Animal Shall Wear Clothes Only one animal struggles with the commandment that bans clothing. Mollie is a white cart horse who loves ribbons, sugar cubes, and attention. She did not mind living with humans in charge, and, unlike the others, she did not appreciate the freedom the animals gained after the rebellion. This commandment does not change but disappears by the end of the story once the pigs start wearing clothes.4No Animal Shall Sleep in a BedThe fourth commandment is the first one that the animals notice has changed. Clover, a workhorse, asks Muriel, a goat, to read the commandment to her after the pigs begin sleeping in the farmhouse beds. The commandment reads: "No animal shall sleep in a bed with sheets."The pigs manipulate the commandment, so they can trick the other animals into accepting their rule-breaking. Squealer tells the others: "The rule was against sheets, which are a human invention. We have removed the sheets from the farmhouse beds and sleep between blankets. And very comfortable beds they are, too! But not more comfortable than we need, I can tell you, comrades, with all the brainwork we have to do nowadays." He warns that without sleep, the pigs will fail in their duties, Jones will come back, and life will be miserable.5No Animal Shall Drink Alcohol.After the pigs start drinking the alcohol that was left behind by Farmer Jones, they change this commandment. Napoleon hates alcohol after his first hangover, but he tries drinking again. Yet again, Muriel reads the wall with the commandments, and it now says: "No animal shall drink alcohol to excess." "Excess" is not defined, and the pigs continue to drink as much as they want. It is omitted in the end because the pigs drink alcohol to excess.6No Animal Shall Kill Any Other Animal.Napoleon took Bluebell and Jessie's puppies and raised them to act as his personal army. One day, Napoleon orders the dogs to execute several animals that he says have been in league with Snowball. After the killings, Muriel reads the wall, which has been changed to say: "No animal shall kill any other animal without cause."The other changes allowed the pigs to have certain luxuries that the other animals did not have access to. This change, though, puts the lives of all the animals at risk. "Cause" is not defined, meaning that Napoleon has given himself the power to kill anyone for any reason. Napoleon retains his right to kill animals and removes the commandment by the end of the novel.By the end of the story, only one commandment is left on the side of the barn: "All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others."
3 Orwell was a British journalist and author, who wrote two of the most famous novels of the 20th century 'Animal Farm' and 'Nineteen Eighty-Four.Orwell was born Eric Arthur Blair on 25 June 1903 in eastern India, the son of a British colonial civil servant. He was educated in England and, after he left Eton, joined the Indian Imperial Police in Burma, then a British colony. He resigned in 1927 and decided to become a writer. In 1928, he moved to Paris where lack of success as a writer forced him into a series of menial jobs. He described his experiences in his first book, 'Down and Out in Paris and London', published in 1933. He took the name George Orwell, shortly before its publication. This was followed by his first novel, 'Burmese Days', in 1934.An anarchist in the late 1920s, by the 1930s he had begun to consider himself a socialist. In 1936, he was commissioned to write an account of poverty among unemployed miners in northern England, which resulted in The Road to Wigan Pier' (1937). Late in 1936, Orwell travelled to Spain to fight for the Republicans against experience turned him into a lifelong anti-Stalinist. Franco's Nationalists. He was forced to flee in fear of his life from Soviet-backed communists who were suppressing revolutionary socialist dissenters. TheBetween 1941 and 1943, Orwell worked on propaganda for the BBC. In 1943, he became literary editor of the Tribune, a weekly left-wing magazine. By now he was a prolific journalist, writing articles, reviews and books.In 1945, Orwell's 'Animal Farm was published. A political fable set in a farmyard but based on Stalin's betrayal of the Russian Revolution, it made Orwell's name and ensured he was financially comfortable for the first time in his life. 'Nineteen Eighty-Four' was published four years later. Set in an imaginary totalitarian future, the book made a deep impression, with its title and many phrases - such as 'Big Brother is watching you', 'newspeak' and 'doublethink' - entering popular use. By now Orwell's health was deteriorating and he died of tuberculosis on 21 January 1950.
