Snowball The Pig

Napoleon is just ruining Snowball’s reputation by fabricating lies about him because a storm is what really damaged the windmill. If the animals knew that Napoleon is lying and think individually for once, they could understand how Napoleon has damaged Snowball to give himself more power, which is terrible leadership and not what Animal Farm wants. Finally, Boxer’s mindset has been totally modified by Napoleon because of the manipulation that he uses on him that now Boxer always thinks Napoleon is right. “ ‘Ah that is different!’ said Boxer ‘If Comrade Napoleon says it, it must be right’ “ (58).

Unfortunately, the sheep that was behind Snowball got shot, but its sacrifice had led to the animal victory. The animals are all brave and valiant. All the farmers were defeated and flee to escape from the tremendous defenses of the animal but except one. So, the intrepid horse, Boxer kicked the man’s face with his hard iron shoes. Although Boxer had held back, but poorly, the man was too weak to defend Boxer’s mighty kick and he stunned.

The windmill is first brought to everyone 's attention by Snowball, who researches on how to build one and draws out the plans. While this occurs, Napoleon slowly takes full control over the farm by eliminating Snowball. The pigs try to make Snowball look guilty and they want the working animals to dislike Snowball at all costs. "Napoleon had never been opposed to the windmill, on the contrary, it was he who had advocated it in the beginning," said

At the heart of a seemingly simple, unassuming novella lie political issues that occurred in Russia during and after the Russian Revolution in 1917. George Orwell’s allegorical ‘masterpiece’ as some would say, stems from his own opinions and detestation of the class divide. He shows that an egalitarian society is unachievable, when some characters that exercise power within Animal Farm use forms of both psychological warfare and physical threats in order to keep the ‘lesser’ animals under their control in order to maintain their society which supposedly follows the principles of Animalism; that ‘all animals are equal’. The pigs employ various tactics and express ways of thinking that convince the animals that they are better off than they had

These behaviors and attitudes of the animals was a reflection of Snowball’s successful leadership. He involved everyone in the process of change, as well as explaining to them why changes needs to be made and what is the benefit. This was evident when he wanted to build a windmill so they can be electricity and improve their living conditions. Snowball knew the environment of the farm was central to the farms survival, by explaining to the group (animals) what needed to be done, it empowered them to have a choice and a voice concerning what is going on around them. The animals knew it was going to be a challenge due to their limitations, none the less they were motivated to completing the task to their own capacity.

When first reading George Orwell’s Animal Farm, one might assume it to be a simple narrative about Farm Animals. However, through closer analysis, you begin to see the allegorical connections and satire of the work. By drawing parallels to certain major events and individuals from the Russian Revolution, Orwell is able to provide a political commentary about the harsh conditions caused by the Revolution. In George Orwell 's Animal Farm, he uses Napoleon, Snowball, and Mr. Jones to show the allegorical connections, as well as its satirical motives.

Once animalism had been established, the pigs started creating committees/classes for the animals to follow. Of these there was a reading/ writing

They often disagreed on many issues involving the farm until Napoleon expelled Snowball from the farm. However even after the expulsion of Snowball, with the use of persuasive language the pigs still find a way to blame him for any misfortune the farm may encounter. To begin, the pigs blame Snowball for destroying the windmill in which the animals worked soo long to build. “Comrades," he said quietly, ‘do you know who is responsible for this? Do you know the enemy who has come in the night and overthrown our windmill?

Furthermore, Napoleon gives the other animals the impression he was the sole leader of the rebellion on Animal farm and makes Snowball -a leader who wanted what was best for the animals- seem like an enemy who was in cahoots with Farmer Jones since long before the animals took over the farm. Napoleon and Squealer (another “fat cat” pig.) always put the blame on Snowball whenever something went wrong in the farm to avoid having the blame fall on them. Napoleon is an exemplary example of just how selfish and hypocritical people can be in furthering their own aims because he continued to subtly but purposely change the seven rules put in place as the pillars of animalism. For example, Napoleon and the other pigs move into Farmer Jones’s house and sleep in his bed after commanding “No animal shall sleep in a bed”, so he changes the commandment to read “no animal shall sleep in a bed with sheets”.

After the windmill is destroyed, Napoleon blames Snowball by saying that he is the traitor who is trying "to set back our plans and avenge himself for his ignominious expulsion” (82). Napoleon’s strong desire to keep power drives him to blame Snowball for the destruction of the windmill to make him look good, so he would not be blamed for all the destructions and injuries that occur within the Farm. This impels the animals to assume that Snowball is the victim and consequently the animals would rely on Napoleon to keep Snowball away for their protection. Squealer swindles the animals saying that the windmill was actually Napoleon’s invention and that his opposition towards it is just a fabrication in order “to get rid of Snowball, who was a dangerous character and a bad influence” (71). Napoleon’s only strategy is to make the animals under the impression that Snowball is the source of all destructions in order to keep his power.

The animals are tired of Mr. Jones and how he treats them so they overrule him. Napoleon abuses the animals trust and uses his power for evil. Napoleon ends up changing everything in the farm. Many years pass and Mr. Jones also passes away. Boxer and Snowball become forgotten.

I look across the long field behind my house for a good flat area to build my snowman. Unfortunately, Snowball had already found one and was quickly gathering snow. Ugg, I think, he’s gonna win! Luckily I found a flat area quickly and I started building within a blink of an eye. I start by making a huge pile of snow, I figure that if I make a big pile of snow I can then carve it into the shape a wonderful snowman.

As Napoleon represents Joseph Stalin and Snowball, Leon Trotsky, it is natural that these two pigs have different personalities. Napoleon is a more fierce-looking character than Snowball, who is known to get his own way. Snowball, in the other hand, is more vivacious and talkative than Napoleon. These two pigs have different views over the Seven Commandments and how other animals should be governed and treated. Besides their differences, we can say that both Napoleon and Snowball wanted the rebellion to happen and supported the idea of Animalism and, consequently, the expurgation of humans from the power.

One example was when tension arose between Napoleon and Snowball shortly after he came up with the idea of the windmill. Napoleon became envious of Snowballs gain in popularity and ended up executing him from the farm. Another theme played in the novel is revolution and corruption. Animal Farm depicts a revolution in progress. Old Major gives the animals a new perspective on their situation under Mr. Jones, which leads them to envision a better future free of human

"Animal", "snowball" further condensed into "seven commandments", to facilitate the praise and prayer. So the "snowball" is the most clever three pigs, unlike "Napoleon" as the violence and the desire for power, unlike "creak" as its most glib it is more idealism, also the most vulnerable people envy, into the animal farm construction period, in the "snowball" under the auspices of they have set up a "Animal Production Committee", "clean tail alliance", "wild Comrade re education committee, also launched a" fleece whitening movement. Considering the stupidity of the animals, the seven commandments, snowball, were taught in simpler new principles, and soon the sheep learned the new principles of four legs and two legs. While Napoleon did only
