In his allegorical novel Animal Farm, George Orwell states that those who allow themselves to be blinded by their naive devotion to their work inevitably allow others to take advantage of them, with the result of the final destruction of everything they worked for. By using a simple, light-hearted fairy tale, he could convey his message without alienating his readers: readers who were tired of the darkness of the Second World War and ready to move on to a new, happier and more optimistic era, but who, according to Orwell , they needed something. be warned to be vigilant against a future controlled by power-hungry rulers. The author draws readers' attention by portraying the reality of human conditions, so that they can draw lessons on how "power corrupts." The ignorance of the mass of animals shows that education contributes substantially to today's understanding of government. George Orwell makes readers become aware of the role of education that stratifies the population of Animal Farm. After Old Major's death, it was the pigs who took the power to direct and supervise the others: pigs who are the most intelligent of animals and "with their superior knowledge it was natural for them to assume leadership" (17). At first the pigs are loyal to their animal companions and the revolutionary cause. However, it is not long before the pigs' intelligence and education transform from "tools of enlightenment to tools of oppression" (Orwell). The moment pigs are faced with something material that they desire - "milk and apples" (23) to maintain good health - they give up the equality of Animalism and use their intellectual knowledge to deceive other animals. For example, knowing that other animals cannot read and write, the pig... middle of paper... educating puppies while they are still small is only out of lust for power. The fact that he exiled Snowball's existence on the farm using his raised and trained wild dogs: "dogs wearing brass-studded collars came bounding into the barn. They rushed straight at Snowball, who leapt from the house just in time to escape their snapping jaws” (35). Napoleon is absolutely a power-hungry ruler, a selfish pig who can tolerate any kind of armed violence only for his own protection and corruption of power. The author prompts readers to distinguish their views on education and think about how this might be useful in their service to animal society. Works CitedOrwell, George. “Animal Farm Themes.” .
