Best Answer

It is a political satire, mainly on Stalinism, by George Orwell. It is couched more or less in the venue of an Animal Cartoon. It is not, and was not intended for the same audience of, say (Wind in the Willows) or (Where the Blue Begins) this is heavy stuff, not the sort of thing for Hanna-Barbera or Disney.

Old Major, a prize winning boar called a meeting in the barn while mr. Jones and Mrs. jones were sleeping. Major said these seven commandments: 1. whatever goes upon two legs is an enemy, 2. whatever goes upon four legs, or has wings is a friend, 3. no animal shall wear clothes, 4. no animal shall drink acohol, 5. no animal shall kill another animal, 6. no animal shall sleep in a bed, 7. ALL ANIMALS ARE EQUAL. he also said that they were being mistreated, so he wanted to uprise against mr. Jones which is going to be called a revolution. After, they sang a song called the Beasts of England which woke up mr. Jones. He didn't know what was going on, but then when he fired his gun all went silent; all the animals went back to their stalls. The next three days Major had died of natural causes. Two leaders had appeared which were Napoleon who acted as Stalin, and Snowball which acted a Trotsky. Eventually, Snowball and Napoleon carried out their orders which were to begin the revolution.

  • Since the collapse of the windmill, the animals are starving. But they try to convince the outside world otherwise. Again, public relations and image control.
  • The hens are told their eggs will be taken. They rebel, but are starved as a consequence (via control of the teeth-baring dogs) and nine die. Again, heavy irony ensues.
  • More scapegoating at Snowball's expense. Boxer seems, amazingly, to remember history the way that it occurred, but Squealer quickly convinces him otherwise.
  • At a meeting, several animals confess (while in the presence of the teeth-baring dogs) to having been in league with Snowball, or with Jones, or both. They are subsequently killed upon Napoleon's orders.
  • It seems that, due to Boxer's doubt regarding the new and rewritten history, Napoleon tries to have him killed by the dogs. However, when Boxer's brute strength becomes apparent, Napoleon seems to change his mind. There's a lot of subtlety here - none of the animals, and especially not Boxer, think for a moment that there was an attempt on Boxer's life. On the surface, it simply appears as though the dogs went rogue and attacked him.
  • There's this great, contemplative moment when Clover looks over the farm and thinks to herself that these scenes of bloody terror are certainly not what the animals have worked so hard for. Such emotion, such poignancy - read your book.
  • The song which we have all come to know and love ("Beasts of England") is abolished.
