description
6The novella is written during the second World War, but published in 1945 under a pen-name of George Orwell. George Orwell depicted the war and its aftermath quite well in the novella, using animals as main characters. This was unusual at that time, for authors to depict reality through the perspective of animals. However, Animal Farm does not merely stop there, as it also tackles politics and political concepts, as well as philosophical, such as freedom, equality, and happiness. However, despite it having all of these concepts laid out all at once, it does focus more on the political events pertaining that of the Second World War, and mostly Russia and the Soviet Union. The novella is filtered with a symbolic nature, characters representing people and places representing rulers or concepts. In reality, these concepts George Orwell dared to speak of and about subtly are the essence of the novella itself. He does, indeed, place what he deemed the focal point on these following concepts that human societies base their foundation on, especially during and after the Second World War: Socialism, Capitalism, Fascism, and communism.In the conceptualized, well-constructed world of George Orwell, this novella, Animal Farm, tackles the aspects which postmodernism criticized harshly for the past decades. This sense of freedom, which the novel explores elaborately, is soon evaporated into thin. This vague concept of freedom in George Orwell's novella bewitches the reader into linking it with a sense of rebellion. The creator against the created, or so to speak, as the novella revolves around animals in a farm, hence the title of the novel. These animals soon begin to think for themselves, have some thoughts revolving rebellion against their master, as they are, in a sense, seen as slaves. Much further into the novel, animals wish to become creators themselves, to have a place of their own, an ambition that might or might not be conceptualized into reality. In other words, it might remain quite abstract, unless they succeed, that is
