    Master's Dissertation/ Trabajo Fin De Máster

    UNIVERSIDAD DE JAÉN Centro de Estudios de Postgrado Master’s Dissertation/ Trabajo Fin de Máster A STORY COME TRUE: AN ANALYSIS OF GEORGE ORWELL’S ANIMAL FARM (1945) Student: Balbuena Jurado, Juana Tutor: Dr. Pilar Sánchez Calle Dpt.: English Philology Centro de Estudios de Postgrado de Centro de Estudios December, 2017 1 ABSTRACT AND KEY WORDS Nowadays, we are living in an age in which people are losing their critical thought and are easily influenced by other people. This situation can be connected to George Orwell‘s eclipsed work Animal Farm (1945). This story starred by naïve farm animals seems to provide a lighter criticism on politics than the one offered in Orwell‘s most famous work Nineteen Eighty-four (1949). Nevertheless, this Master‘s Dissertation aims to prove the relevance of this work as a social criticism. With this purpose, this MD will study literature as a social criticism, Animal Farm‘s literary genre, its context, formal aspects and the critical reflections that it displays such as manipulation through language or indoctrination. Additionally, there will be a section devoted to analyse the influence of Animal Farm in our modern world: literature, music, cinema, TV and even our current way to approach politics. This work will be ended by drawing some conclusions about the influence of Animal Farm and the impact of its criticism. Key words: Animal Farm, George Orwell, Russia, communism, manipulation, social criticism. RESUMEN Y PALABRAS CLAVE Actualmente estamos en medio de un periodo en el que la gente está perdiendo su pensamiento crítico y es influenciada fácilmente por otros.

In various inter- views Barks had referred to the “Landon correspondence course in cartooning” he’d taken when he was sixteen. Fascinated, I tried to find a copy of Landon’s course. After a couple of years of searching on eBay and other auction houses – where I was only able to find partial copies – I finally tracked down a com- plete copy from a New York rare book dealer. In the meantime, my research revealed that more than a few cartoonists from Barks’s generation had taken the Landon course.

Further reproduction prohibited without permission. ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the U.S. wartime presidential campaign of 1944. In 1944, the United States was at war with the Axis Powers of World War II, and Democrat Franklin D. Roosevelt, already serving an unprecedented third term as President of the United States, was seeking a fourth. Roosevelt was a very able politician and-combined with his successful performance as wartime commander-in-chief-- waged an effective, and ultimately successful, reelection campaign. Republicans, meanwhile, rallied behind New York Governor Thomas E. Dewey. Dewey emerged as leader of the GOP at a critical time. Since the coming of the Great Depression -for which Republicans were blamed-the party had suffered a series of political setbacks. Republicans were demoralized, and by the early 1940s, divided into two general national factions: Robert Taft conservatives and Wendell WiIlkie "liberals." Believing his party's chances of victory over the skilled and wily commander-in-chiefto be slim, Dewey nevertheless committed himself to wage a competent and centrist campaign, to hold the Republican Party together, and to transform it into a relevant alternative within the postwar New Deal political order.

    Animal Farm Quote Bank Government / Pigs in Charge

    Animal Farm Quote Bank Government / Pigs in charge: “„Only get rid of Man, and the produce of our labour would be our own. Almost overnight we could become rich and free. What then must we do…Rebellion!”‟ (Orwell 7). “The work of teaching and organising the others fell naturally upon the pigs, who were generally reconised as being the cleverest of the animals” (Orwell 11). “„You will have all the oats and hay you want”‟ (Orwell 12). “The pigs did not actually work, but directed and supervised the others. With their superior knowledge it was natural that they should assume the leadership” (Orwell 19). “He said the education of the young was more important than anything that could be done for those who were already grown up” (Orwell 34-35). “Napoleon took them away from their mothers, saying that he would make himself responsible for their education” (Orwell 35). “The animals had assumed as a matter of course that these would be shared out equally; one day, however, the order went forth that all the windfalls were to be collected and brought to the harness-room for the use of the pigs” (Orwell 25). “„It is for your sake that we drink the milk and eat those apples. Do you know what would happen if we pigs failed in our duty? Jones would come back!”‟ (Orwell 25). “…Snowball made a little speech, emphasizing the need for all animals to be ready to die for Animal Farm if need be” (Orwell 30-31). “It had come to be accepted that the pigs… should decide all questions of farm policy…” (Orwell 47).

  • Animal Farm by George Orwell

    Animal Farm by George Orwell

    Animal Farm by George Orwell ANIMAL FARM by George Orwell I MR. JONES, of the Manor Farm, had locked the hen-houses for the night, but was too drunk to remember to shut the popholes. With the ring of light from his lantern dancing from side to side, he lurched across the yard, kicked off his boots at the back door, drew himself a last glass of beer from the barrel in the scullery, and made his way up to bed, where Mrs. Jones was already snoring. As soon as the light in the bedroom went out there was a stirring and a fluttering all through the farm buildings. Word had gone round during the day that old Major, the prize Middle White boar, had had a strange dream on the previous night and wished to communicate it to the other animals. It had been agreed that they should all meet in the big barn as soon as Mr. Jones was safely out of the way. Old Major (so he was always called, though the name under which he had been exhibited was Willingdon Beauty) was so highly regarded on the farm that everyone was quite ready to lose an hour's sleep in order to hear what he had to say. At one end of the big barn, on a sort of raised platform, Major was already ensconced on his bed of straw, under a lantern which hung from a beam. He was twelve years old and had lately grown rather stout, but he was still a majestic-looking pig, with a wise and benevolent appearance in spite of the fact that his tushes had never been cut.
  • Squealer's Use of Euphemism and Doublespeak in George

    Squealer's Use of Euphemism and Doublespeak in George

    AJELLS: Awka Journal of English Language and Literary Studies, Vol. 7 No. 2, 2020 SQUEALER’S USE OF EUPHEMISM AND DOUBLESPEAK IN GEORGE ORWELL’S ANIMAL FARM Chinyere Alozie-Onumadu Girls’ Secondary School Ikenegbu, Owerri, Nigeria. Email: [email protected] Abstract This paper reviewed the various communicative functions of euphemism and the implication of doublespeak. Politeness theory developed by Brown and Levison in 1978, Goffman’s theory of face and Steven McCornack’s Information Manipulation Theory founded in 1992 were adopted in analyzing Squealer’s utterances in Orwell’s Animal Farm. In describing the communicative functions of euphemism and implication of doublespeak, the descriptive research design and the qualitative method were used to analyze nine utterances from Squealer. From the analysis, the researcher found out that although euphemism and doublespeak are inter-related, the phenomena differ. The study also revealed that doublespeak can be notorious in conversation. Keywords: Euphemism, Doublespeak, Information Manipulation Theory Introduction Euphemism and Doublespeak are closely related. A phrase in doublespeak as well as in euphemism is a roundabout way of saying something. Euphemism has a great effect on people’s daily communication. It can make a harsh topic softer and an embarrassing conversation agreeable while adhering to social communicative conventions. In other words, it saves the faces of both sides and enable people to communicate successfully. On the other hand, doublespeak is an expression that deliberately reverses the meaning of words. It may take the form of euphemisms (e.g ‘downsizing’ for ‘layoff’), it primarily meant to make ‘the truth’ sound palatable. The phenomena also play the part of showing politeness, concealing feelings and deceit (www.cliffnotes.com).

When the Great Depression called into question U.S. manifest destiny, Americans reified their divine chosenness first through a “good neighbor” national image and later through a narrative imagining the United States as a righteous nation battling evil enemies.
