Chapter 4 - Animal Farm
The significance of the first two paragraphs in chapter four is that there are both good and bad results about the Rebellion. In the first paragraph it says that Snowball and Napoleon sent out flights of pigeons whose instruction where to mingle with the aniamls on neighbouring farms, tell them the story of the Rebellion, and teach them the tune if ‘Beast of England'. This is the first evidence in the chapter show that the revolution would go wrong is that Snowball and Napoleon sends out pigeons, this makes Snowball and Napoleon superior to the pigeons, telling them what to do.
The second paragraph is about Mr Jones who is in the pub drinking and telling other people about this problem about his farm, and telling them that he was the victim of all this. In fact we know that he was not the victim but the cause of this rebellion, he treated the animals harshly and feed them the smallest of rations of food. Also in this chapter it says that the other farmers listening to Jones is trying to gain from this revolutions. This might suggest that the other people might betray Jones in order to ‘turn Jones's misfortune to his own advantage'. There is also rivalry between the farm adjoining Animal Farm, Mr Pilkington and Mr Fredrick absolutely hated each other making this easier for the animals because there will be minimal threat between the both of them because they will be arguing among each other.
In conclusion the first two paragraphs show both some good and some bad points about the

    As I began reading Chapter 8, I thought that animals are going to be the victims of this chapter. However, as I went over each page, it turned out that out of all living creatures entering the slaughterhouse, humans are treated in the most barbaric and inhuman way. I decided to write about this chapter because it brings up the issue of how privileged people in America use their power and literally turn people without those privileges into slaves. Another reason is the fact that I honestly wasn’t aware of terrifying working conditions at the slaughter houses, which is another issue of keeping it away from media. For companies such as IBP, the fast speed of the assembly line is more important than what it consumes. Slaughter house workers make…

    In Animal Farm by George Orwell there are two key chapters that can be compared. In chapter two it is the morning after the rebellion and the animals are overjoyed. “They woke at dawn” shows the beginning of a new day, this creates a sense of hope and represents the start of their new life without humans. However in chapter seven it is the night of the slaughters and the reader can see the caparison between the time of day when Orwell says “gilded by the level rays of the sun” This shows the sun is setting on Animals Farm and represents the end of their hopes and dreams. There is also a difference between Orwell’s word choice in both chapters, in chapter two the animals “raced” “rushed” and “hurled” portraying their excitement, enthusiasm and…

    In the movie, I began to see examples of collectivism and individualism. For instance, in collectivism the group comes before the individual. The “experts” do all the thinking for the people. Which in this case, the pigs, Napoleon and snowball were the experts. They made the rules that the farm animals had to abide: all animals were equal, no animal shall be killed by another, no sleeping on beds or drinking alcohol ect. As the revolution went on, the animals helped one another,like we as people do in the everyday world. Napoleon soon felt as if snowball was getting in the way of his dictatorship and had him killed. Napoleon now became the leader, and even spread the word to other farms so other pigs could start the same revolution. The weaker animals were sacrificed the laws that were set soon changed, the farm animals became more and more like slaves , they ate less, worked dawn to dusk and no longer were equal. The law now was some animals were equal but some more than others. While the farm animals did all the hard work, the pigs got to sit back, relax and eat all the food for themselves. With that said, Collectivism is a lot like communism, the pigs had control of the farm animals, made the laws, even everything the farm animals made soon belonged to the pigs. It’s like how the world is today, part of the hard earned money and things we make go to the government. The government and the corporations are the pigs.…
