Animal farm second part

Even the seven commandments were changed into one:

The theme of betrayal of democracy is summed up in this slogan.
 So their communist rebellion ended in fierce dictatorship by the pigs. The initial protest revealed to be a complete failure because their former comrades were now their dictators and enemies.

With "Animal farm" Orwell wanted to describe and denounce the degeneration of the Russian Revolution and the horrors of Stalinism. The story can be considered also as a satire on dictatorship in general, not only in Russia; Orwell was convinced that his duty was to show people the deceptions of a Communist State. He believed that power corrupts all men.

Animal farm story First part

 Animal farm is a fairy story which tells the animals' revolution against their enemy: MAN!!!!
The leaders of the revolt were two pigs : Napoleon and Snowball. They formulated the Seven commandments which were the principles of Animalism:







Whatever goes upon two legs is an enemy.
Whatever goes upon four legs or has wings is a friend.
No animal shall wear clothes.
No animal shall sleep in bed.
No animal shall drink alcohol.
No animal shall kill any other animal.
All animals are equal.


Years passed but the pigs started to behave like men: they walked on two legs, they wore clothes,  and they sat at tables drinking wine and alcoholic drinks; it was now impossible to distinguish pigs from men.......
