Comment on Chapter 4

On this chapter Napoleon and Snowball uses the pigeons as weapons of telling the animals of other farms about the rebellion. So it can be taked as a spread of the system Animalism. Because withouth all the force of all animals from other farms, rebellion on Manor Farm wouldnt be significant, the main purpose is to spread the word. It can be compared to the concept of Karl Marx, that it need to be spread into a global scale for it to achieve their goals. 

Is on this chapter that we can see the really intentions of animals: war, they want to fight. They begin planning some strategies, Snowball is the one that handles this part of the plan. He demostrates to take control of the situation. Even humans came to attack and get out the animals form the power, but they couldnt because they were organized and together. I am personally surprised animals won the fight, I really tough men were more prepare, but we could appreciate the convincement of animals for mantaining the power. After the fight is won by the animals, they make it like a sacred day, that need to be remembered. And the one that fought are condecorated, I like that from the animals they recognize the ones that sacrified their lifes for them. 

Comment on Chapter 3

In this chapter the leaders, the pigs, sustained the glory of the revolution with the team work. Only if animals work together they will accomplish their goals, although there are some problems that are solved with communication.So they work together in order to achieve a progress to the farm. In this chapter Napoleon takes the puppies from their mothers, he aislate them as a technique to achieve more power. I could also observe in this chapter an example of propaganda, when squealer introduces fear tactics. He threats animals that withouth the pigs at the lead Jones would come back so they need to be obeyed and get the benefits they ask for. "Do you know what would happen if we pigs failed in our duty? Jones would come back! Yes, Jones would come back!" pg. 25. 

If you could give your favourite character some advice at this point in the story, what would you say? Do you think they would listen to you? Give your reasons.

Well, as my favourite character mentioned before was Clover, and she doesnt makes a bog appearance, I would like to change to Boxer. Its own name says he is tough and he is. Now that the  pigs are handle in the farm he is still doing the hard work, but now he says it is for a good cause and he needs to do his best as possible. Now his efforts would not be for benefit of human, now they are for the animals. So, he takes the most hard part of the work, he may represent the loyal and hard-worker in society. In instance I eould say to him for open his eyes and look around him. I think that Boxer is strong enough to kill another animal, even a human. But, still his lack of intelligence and the iniciative of take the charge wouldnt let him to learn how to use his strenght against his enemies. 

Why do you think Napoleon takes the puppies?

Firstly, to begin with he is in charge together with Snowball and Squealer of incentivating the revolutionary spirit of the animals. So he sees as a great idea to take the puppies and to start form zero with them, like a brainwash; implement them ideas that older they would not question. He tought that educating the younger animals was most important, than something that could be done for old animals. In a way, it could be said that the younger ones would be the future, they would be the ones that fight for the older ones. So the key point Napoleon rescues from Old Major´s speech is to pass the knowledge to the younger ones. So to sumerize Napoleon uses a secret technique: taking puppies to make them submissive to him, to make them obbey him. He hides his plan saying to the mother of the puppies that its in benefit of their education, but the only thing he does is to aislate them form the rest of the animals. 

Quote: "He said that the education of the young was more important than anything that could be done for those who were already grown up".

Comment on Chapter 2

The death of Old Mayor makes the spirit of animals for getting a revolution more effectively. The ones that take the charge are the pigs, for been reconized as the most intelligent animals. The ones that take the lead on the rebellion are the pigs Napoleon, Snowball and Squealer. They make the bases of their system called Animalism. This chapter presents more clear the plot and make us expeculate how everything would turn up. 

The pigs make the animals form the farm get together and in that way join for a cause: revollution for better conditions of life, for not being treated as objects and specially for not having to serve or depend on someone else (humans). This is shown on its seven commandments of its system: Animalism. The pigs have the job of keeping the animals together for the cause and not letting question the system or even take in consideration Mr. Jones, so the pigs have to persuade them in order to maintain the animals against human beings. 

I think is in here where we can see that animals wanting to do something in instance. But there is also presented some animals that dont agreed at all with this system or are doubtful. So the meeting Old Mayor organizes on Chapter 1 changes the look of life animals had, most assume the revolutionary spirit and the task of preparing for a Rebellion. But for example Mollie, the mare, she thinks that having a ribbon, sugar and more privileges are enough for her, that she wouldnt like to drop that.  

Finally with Mr Jones out of the farm, animals had start the first step of the plan that revolution takes place. Thaey now can realize Majors vision and operate under their own ideology, because now they are in charge of the farm.

We can point out that the authour uses allegory, in order to symbolize the animals bad-treated and the abuse of power. 

Comment on Chapter 1

Animal Farm tell us historic facts that are represented by the animals in the farm that through a didactical way, by making them talk catches the readers attention.

After reading the first chapter I reflected and take conscious on not only the cruel and abussive treat animals received from human beings on the story, but makes me analyse ans associate them with the nowaday society. And also evaluate the situation in which the revolutionary people must have deal to for opting like only solution a revolution.

Favourite Animal

I like Clover, the horse. She is Boxer´s companion and she cares for him. I can see she can take charge of the other horses. She has a maternal side although a strong attitude. She demostrates to be a loyal friend to Boxer and to the animals in the farm. So this is why I like the character of Clover.
