Lord Of The Flies Animal Farm
723 words
Two unassociated books, Lord of the Flies and
Animal Farm, come together in a certain way to
show the quest for leadership among humans. George
Orwell, author of Animal Farm, and William
Golding, author of Lord of the Flies, explains
quite well in these books how human kind destroys
itself to be above everything else. Each story has
its own original leader, a second designated
realistic leader, and its final monarchist leader.
In Lord of the Flies the original leader is
possibly the pilot or rea...

Role Of Suspense In Animal Farm
862 words
Suspense is commonly used in many literature
works. Such as mystery, adventure, and fable. One
of them is Orwell's fable, Animal Farm. The
suspense creates situation irony, reveals
characteristic of the antagonist - pigs, and
changes the animals from admire animalism to
suspect animalism. First Orwell uses suspense in
Animal Farm to create irony. Some of the animals
remembered or thought they remembered that the
Sixth Commandment decreed: No animal shall kill
any other animal. (Animal Farm, 61)....

predicting the downfall of civilization. But,

culture most resembles that of Orwell's creation,
but I disagree for a number of very important and
relevant reasons. First, Orwell feared that

to Marx? The reader gets the impression that the
proles are really seen as ...

Brave New World George Orwell

People use their knowledge of the power, inherent
in the mastery of discourses, to manipulate
others. Many texts show evidence of this. In fact,
some texts actively criticise those, who less than
ethically utilise their mastery of discourses to
achieve their own ends. The media actively utilise
their understanding of the dominant discourse to
support many agendas. Novelists over the years
have shown the ill-effects on individuals who
might suffer through not mastering the dominant
discourse. Tho...
