THE TYRANNY OF AN OUTSIDER, A HUMAN,

THE TYRANNY OF AN OUTSIDER, A HUMAN,

THE PURPOSE OF THIS ESSAY IS TO DISCUSS WHY GEORGE ORWELLS BOOK, ANIMAL FARM, SHOWS IRONY.ANIMAL FARM IS A VERY SYMBOLIC NOVEL. ALTHOUGH IT MAY BE MISTAKENLY VIEWED AT AS A CHILDRENS BOOK AT FIRST, A DEEPER ANALIZATION REVEALS MORE THEN MEETS THE EYE.

WITHIN ANIMAL FARM REPRESENTATIONS OF CORRUPTIONS MAY BE REVEALED, THE DOWNFALL OF A GOVERNMENT ORIGINALLY BUILT ON PROSPERITY, AND EVEN INDIVIDUAL PEOPLE CAN BE FOUND. ALL PLACED WITHIN THE MICROCOSM OF A BARNYARD.THE STAGE IS SET WHEN THE ANIMALS FORM THERE OWN GOVERNMENT, WITH THERE OWN RULES, AND THER OWN STIRRING PHILOSOPHY THAT ALL ANIMALS ARE EQUAL AND ON THIS BASE A UTOPIA OF PROGRESS SHALL BE BUILT. IT DOES PROGRESS AND THRIVE THANKS TO THE WORK OF THE PIGS WHO TEACH, ORGANIZE, AND DO JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING BUT MANUAL LABOR.

THE PIGS CONTROL THE FARM, THE PIGS HAVE POWER, ABSOLUTE POWER, AND AS A GREAT MAN ONCE SAID WITH ABSOLUTE POWER COMES ABSOLUTE COORUPTION. AS THIS COORUPTION ESCALATES THE FARMS PROSPERITY DECLINES UNTILL FINALLY THE TREASURED MAXIM UPON WHICH ANMAL FARM WAS BUILT THAT ALL ANIMALS ARE EQUAL CHANGES TO A MORE FITTING SLOGAN THAT ALL ANIMALS ARE EQUAL BUT SOME ARE MORE EQUAL THEN OTHERS. ANIMAL FARM BEGINS WITH THE TYRANNY OF AN OUTSIDER, A HUMAN, SOMEONE THE ANIMALS COULD HATE BECAUSE HE WAS NOT ONE OF THEM. ANIMAL FARM ENDS WITH THE TYRANNY OF A PEER WHICH IS MUCH WORSE AND ONLY PROVES THAT THE NEED FOR CONTROL WILL GET THE BETTER OF THE BEST OF US IF WE ARE PLACED IN SUCH A POSITION.SO IN CLOSEING I WILL END WITH SAYING THAT ANIMAL FARM IS IRONIC BECAUSE THE PIGS, WHO BEGIN WITH THE GOAL TO STOP THE SUPPRESSION OF JONES AND LEAD THE ANIMALS TO PROSPERITY, EVENTUALLY BECOME JUST AS BAD AS THEIR ORIGINAL SUPPRESSERS.
