As William Dawson, essay writer for Omnibus Three, states: “This is one of those rare books that is fun and entertaining, but teaches serious and important insights about man and on the world of God." (Dawson, 2006) This analysis will focus on two themes from George Orwell's Animal Farm. First, about the danger of ignorance and, second, about how violence and fear have been used as means of control. It is important to know how to recognize these two themes; as they are certainly happening a lot today in our world. “This is my message to you, comrades: Rebellion! No argument can lead you astray...animals in perfect unity. All animals are companions." (Orwell, 1954) So the book began and with a true sense of dignity, all the animals agreed that freedom would soon be at hand. They knew that whether it happened now or for future generations, complete and absolute freedom was worth working for. With this goal in mind the animals thought they could conquer anything; unless it was their own kind causing the oppression. However, no one even noticed any oppression taking place and since it was their own kind, they were under oppression without knowing it, due to Napoleon's cunning activity. For example: Napoleon made up the excuse of taking care of puppies (Orwell, 1954) while in his mind he was actually preparing them to become strong dogs who would later help in his power control plan. They were too busy looking at the common good and never found the time, or rather the courage, to discuss things with their companions. This is where the term ignorance comes in. Ignorance is when you are devoid of knowledge, uneducated, uninformed and uneducated. (Webster, 1828) Because of the animals' ignorance and unawareness of...... middle of paper ......ff than when they began. During this analysis, two themes were explored in detail with examples, definitions and quotes. While being aware and fighting for your cause can sometimes be for a good cause, I agree with Psalm 68:6 when it says that the rebellious will dwell in a dry land.
