Ministry Of Love Big Brother
1,899 words
... r, imagining himself floating inside the glass
walls of the paperweight with his mother. The
phrase "the place where there is no darkness"
works as a symbol of hope throughout the novel, as
Winston recalls the dream in which O'Brien tells
him about the place and says they will meet there
one day. The phrase therefore orients Winston
toward the end of the novel, when the phrase
becomes bitterly ironic: the place where there is
no darkness is the Ministry of Love, where the
lights remain on in...

Seven Commandments Power Corrupts
713 words
The satire Animal Farm by George Orwell expresses
the idea of self-government through the animals.
The animals play the role of humans, in this way
using most, if not all, of the human
characteristics. Because the animals decide that
they want to run the farm by themselves, they make
up a way of living called Animalism. The basic
principles of Animalism are two, all animals are
to be treated as equals, and no animals shall
acquire any human traits or characteristics
whatsoever. The seven command...

Failed Revolutions And Tyrants In Animal Farm
640 words
Animal Farm, by George Orwell was published in
1945, a crucial time in history because of
Stalin's takeover of the Soviet Union and his
exploitation of the centralized communist
government. This was in direct contradiction to
the expected results of the Russian Revolution.
Orwell felt that revolutions fail because the end
result is a change of tyrants and not of
government. Orwell exemplifies this failure
through the goals of the revolution and their
failure to meet them, the malfunction of Napo...

Imagine crossing E. M. Forster with Jane Austen.
Stir in a bit of socialist doctrine, a sprig of
satire, strong Indian curry, and a couple quarts
of good English gin and you get something close to
the flavor of George Orwell's intensely readable
and deftly plotted Burmese Days. Orwell uses his
own Anglo-Indian background to show the smothering
pettiness and suffocating heat that are the basis
for colonial life: "Mr. MacGregor told his

Karl Marx Communist Regime

Animal Farm by George Orwell was written in an
importune time where communist ideologies were
spreading across the globe. As a socialist
himself, he despised the idea, as it was not a
pure socialist form of government, instead it was
a deception of leaders in mansions whilst others
suffered outside of their palace walls. Animal
Farm is a struggle between the old regime and an
ever-changing world that leads to the beginnings
of revolutions. It is a reflection of the
communist ideologies that prop...

Four Legs Good Two Legs Napoleon And Snowball

Animal Farm, published in 1945, is widely
considered to be one of the cornerstones of George
Orwell's literary legacy. Though it is a much
shorter and somewhat less developed account of
totalitarianism than his later work 1984, muted
only by its fairy-tale qualities, it is no less
frightening in presenting the dangers of blindly
following a leader in a political climate of
absolute power. Orwell presents to us the story of
Manor Farm, run by the drunk, laggard farmer, Mr.
Jones. The animals of t...
