Research Paper On Animal Farm By George Orwell

372 Words2 Pages
In a famous essay, George Orwell once said “ The first book in which I tried, with full consciousness of what I was doing, to fuse political purpose and artistic purpose into one whole” (Why I write). He wanted to present a novel that showed the political reality while portraying people as animals. He also wanted to teach the lesson that power from higher individuals can often lead to oppression and corruption. In the beginning of the book, the animals create a revolution and declare that all animals are equal. Over time the pigs, the leaders, put themselves higher than the other animals, creating a hierarchy. The famous line in Animal Farm “ All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others” (pg. 134) helps paint that picture.
