Analysis

“The animal farm”

Eric Arthur Blair was better known as George Orwell. He wrote a novella called Animal Farm.
Many of the themes and ideas depicted in this novella were affected by politics throughout the
first half of the twentieth century, and the work continues to be a source of intellectual
enjoyment and political insight to this day. This portrays politics in a negative light, and the
novel makes extensive use of irony and comedy. As a result, I regard it as a model text for the
reader of literature that addresses some of the fundamental concerns in this unique fairy tale
Religion is one of the most major themes in the novel. The basic topic of this novel is matched
by religious and animal themes. Orwell refers to religion as "opium for the masses" in the same
way that Karl Marx did: Religious suffering is, at the same time, the expression of real suffering
and revolt. against genuine misery.
sReligion is a sigh of relief for the imprisoned creature, the spirit of circumstances without spirit,
the heart of the world without heart. It is the people's opiate.' Marx believed that man created
religion, not the other way around, and that he utilizes religion to provide an illusory kind of
happiness when the genuine sort is difficult. Moses the raven in Animal Farm represents the
Russian Orthodox Church, which suffered terribly under Communist tyranny. This 'He claimed
to know about a magical country called Sugarcandy Mountain, to which all animals went when
they died,' happened in Chapter 2. According to Moses, it was located somewhere high in the
sky, just beyond the clouds. It was Sugarcandy Mountain at the time. Clover was in season all
year, and lump sugar and linseed cake flourished on the hedges, seven days a week. The animals
despised Moses because he told tall tales and did no work, but some of them believed in
Sugarcandy Mountain, so the pigs had to fight tooth and nail to convince them convincing them
that there was no such place. The animals are still hopeful for a better future at this point, barring
Moses' stories of paradise elsewhere. But when the animals' condition worsened, I began to
believe him, because 'their lives today, as they imagine, were tiring and difficult.' Clearly. Pigs
let Moses stay on the farm - and even reward him with beer - because they know his stories
about Mount Sugar Candy will keep animals docile: as long as there is a better world somewhere
- even after death.
The animals eventually become enraged with the crow for not doing the chores, but he only
repeats the story. They cannot allow any animal to grumble about itself or begin to think about
its next life prior to the insurrection. At the end of the novel, though, this viewpoint shifts
radically. The pigs welcomed the crow back by secretly giving him a liter of beer every day.
Other animals are still told that his stories are lies. Pigs demand religious treason since they are
now rulers. Animals who believe that life will be better after death are less likely to act in the
present. Pigs, like Marx, comprehend this.
