Animal Farm

Symbolism of Animal Farm

Orwell's characters in Animal Farm symbolize Marx, Stalin, and Trotsky, the leaders of the Russian Revolution. These animals or "Manor Farm", which symbolizes Russia, overthrow their human master after years of mistreatment. It is in the pigs that the political allegory takes its most precise form (Sedley 57). Led by the pigs, the farm animals continue to do their work. Only now they do it with more pride knowing that they are working for themselves, as opposed to working for their human master, Farmer Jones. Slowly over time the pigs gain power and take advantage of the other animals. They gain so much power that they become just as power hungry and corrupt as their human master.

Using the symbolism that is in the book with similarities found in the Russian Revolution very easily shows the comparison between the animals and the Russian Leaders. The most important animals are three pigs- Old Major, Napoleon, and Snowball.

"He was twelve years old and had lately grown rather stout, but he was still a majestic- looking pig, with wise and benevolent appearance in spite of the fact that his tushes had never been cut" (Orwell 16). Old Major is a favorite of all the animals
