The novel starts off with a smart boars - Old Majors, dreamt possible reality, for all animals on the Manor farm, to bee free, from slavery and the oppressing hands of Mr. Jones, the farmer.

In Majors dream the animals were free from human tyranny. He emphasized animals working together to overthrow their human who oppressed them. Major explained how to start a rebellion, one of the main ideas was that all creatures with two legs should be considered enemies.

He draw attention to human corruption and their sins meanwhile addressing that non animal should become like one of them so he thought them a revolutionary song, Beasts of England. The animal synchronized and came together in song, but were thrown off when Mr. Jones fired his gun and all of the farm went silent.

Quotes:

Beasts of England, beasts of Ireland, Beasts of every land and clime, Hearken to my joyful tiding, Of the golden future time.

My thoughts:

I believe that animals should not be enslaved by humans if they are not comfortable with the protection of farms walls and the limited food they got. Overthrowing ones land, property, home, which does not belong to you, sounds wrong but if the property has been kept together by the hard work that you had to do then it’s not only his property, it’s all of the parties members who contributed some effort of keeping the property a float

Raised question:

What was the result of majors dream, how it affected animals and what did they do to contribute towards the rebellion.

New words: tyranny, solidarity

Summery: After Old Major's death, the animals, led by pigs like Napoleon and Snowball, plan and execute a rebellion against Mr. Jones, the farmer. They establish Animalism as their guiding philosophy, symbolized by seven commandments painted on the barn. The rebellion is successful due to Mr. Jones's negligence and the animals' unity. They destroy symbols of human oppression and take over the farm, renaming it "Animal Farm." However, early signs of inequality emerge, such as the disappearance of the milk, hinting at future power struggles among the animals.

Raised question: will the abuse of power continue, leading to more inequality, in Context of stolen milk.

Quotes:

Those ribbons that you are so devoted to are the badges of slavery.

My thoughts:

People worry too much about what others think, so they start acting the way they think they're expected to. This makes them change who they really are to fit in, forgetting their true selves along the way.

New words: Animalism

Summery: the animals work carefully during the summer, with the pigs, particularly Snowball, coming up with innovative ways for them to use human tools. Boxer, the hardworking horse, becomes a symbol of dedication, while Benjamin the donkey remains cynical. The animals hold weekly flag-raising ceremonies and democratic meetings, where Snowball and Napoleon dominate discussions. Snowball establishes comities, but many fail except for literacy classes, where all animals, most of them, learn to read. Napoleon prioritizes training puppies and justifies the pigs' consumption of milk and apples by claiming it's necessary for their mental acuity. The animals reluctantly agree, fearing Mr. Jones's return.

Quotes: Four legs good, two legs bad

Raised question: lying about the need for food, and raising fear inducing dogs

My thoughts: napoleon already new that he was going to use fear for manipulating others because the dogs he was raising was before the power struggles had began to happen

New words: acuity, comities

As news of Animal Farm spreads, Mr. Jones lives in disgrace while neighboring farmers fear the spread of discontent among their own animals. Despite their rivalry, they only spread rumors about the farm's shortcomings. The animals, inspired by "Beasts of England," begin behaving rebelliously. When Mr. Jones and other men attack, Snowball leads a successful defense. Boxer and Snowball emerge as heroes, and the humans suffer defeat, with minimal animal casualties. Boxer feels remorse for unintentionally harming a stable boy, but Snowball asserts the necessity of human elimination. The animals commemorate their victory by displaying Mr. Jones's gun and plan to fire it annually on significant dates.

Raised question: How harming others when in a state of war is considered a must to achieve victory.

My thoughts: Boxers strength is used for fighting against humans but in his heart he is a gentle giant who had no intention to hurt others.

Quotes: "Man is the only creature that consumes without producing."

New words: tyranny, propaganda

Summery: Mollie becomes a burden and leaves with a human. Snowball and Napoleon clash over the windmill project. Despite Snowball's passion, Napoleon drives him off with dogs, seizing power. Squealer manipulates the animals into accepting Napoleon's dictatorship by justifying his actions and claiming he supports the windmill project.

Quote: Nine enormous dogs wearing brass-studded collars came bounding into the barn. They dashed straight for Snowball.

My thoughts: The quote from Chapter V illustrates Napoleon's expulsion of Snowball using violent means. Napoleon, losing popularity to Snowball, employs a private police force, the dogs, while Snowball relies on persuasion and ideas. This highlights the critique of authoritarian tactics used by real leaders. Furthermore, the episode symbolizes the shift from democratic principles to overt violence, depicting the transformation of Animal Farm from equality to a society where power dictates rights. (This is going in my essay about the abuse of power)

Raised question:
How is the windmill prepared, how was snowball thrown off of leadership?

New words: seizing

Summery:
The animals work tirelessly to farm and build the windmill. Napoleon manipulates them into extra labor on Sundays and engages in trade with humans, justifying it as necessary for the farm's well-being. The pigs start living luxuriously, breaking the commandments, while Squealer distorts(changes) their meanings. When the windmill collapses in a storm, Napoleon blames Snowball and persuade the animals to rebuild it.

My Thoughts:
When I was reading the book I couldn’t understand the reason for napoleons lies about snowball destroying the windmill but than I thought by blaming others for your own failures and stupidity is a lot easier to deal with the consequences of what others think of you, because blaming someone else takes the spotlight off of you and other animals had to blame someone so the output of their emotions went somewhere, to Snowball in this case, and not all around which would result in chaos

Quotes: The pigs did not actually work, but directed and supervised the others.

Raised question: how did the pigs take advantage of the power that they had?

Summery:
In the harsh winter, the animals struggle to rebuild the windmill and conceal food shortages. Napoleon blames Snowball for sabotage and increases oppression. He sells eggs, prompting a rebellion from the hens, which he violently suppresses. Napoleon accuses Snowball of treachery, staging a purge where supposed traitors are killed. Boxer is bewildered, but vows to work harder. Squealer manipulates the animals into accepting the brutal regime, banning the singing of "Beasts of England" and replacing it with a patriotic song. The animals are left shaken and disillusioned, questioning the state of their once glorious rebellion.

Quote:

My thoughts:
In the chapter it talked about boxers trust in the regime and Napoleon, how he devoted to work harder for the farm.
I believe that Boxer is too naive to see through Napoleon’s lies and contributes his life to a cause made up by a tragically scared pig who fears being thrown off of his big throne by snowball.

Raised question: How Napoleon is going to act when faced with the problems of food shortages and destruction of the windmill

Summery:
In the final chapter of "Animal Farm," years pass, and memories of the Rebellion fade. The pigs and dogs live comfortably while the other animals work hard. Squealer justifies this hierarchy, and the animals maintain pride in their farm. One day, the pigs begin walking upright, using whips, and adopting human behaviors. They change the Seven Commandments, openly imitate humans, and host human farmers. Napoleon renames the farm "Manor Farm" and reconciles with the humans. The animals witness the pigs and humans becoming indistinguishable, marking the complete betrayal of the Rebellion's ideals.

Quotes:
All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.

My thoughts:
This quote perfectly portrays the pigs in this book, showing how they can say one thing but at the same time say something else which goes in their favour and make other animals feel some sort of equality.

Raised question: when pigs who’s intentions were bad are given power, how they are going to start adapting the same vices as humans

In this chapter of "Animal Farm," the animals celebrate their "victory" and begin building a new windmill, led by Boxer despite his injury. Food shortages persist, but Squealer insists they have plenty. Napoleon fathers many piglets and orders a schoolroom for their education. Rations decrease while the pigs grow fatter. Animal Farm becomes a Republic, with Napoleon as President. Boxer collapses from illness and is taken away, supposedly to a veterinarian, but Benjamin discovers he's being sent to a knacker. Boxer is never seen again. Squealer lies to the animals, claiming Boxer was taken to a veterinarian. The chapter ends with the pigs drunk on whisky, showing their disregard for the suffering of others.

My thoughts:
In the book it said that the animal farm became a republic where the power is divided equally among its members but in this case only the pigs had any say and not the other animals.

Raised question:
How pigs had shown ignorance?

# data[].attributes.body
Summery: In this chapter of "Animal Farm," Napoleon tightens his grip on power about food shortages. Squealer distorts figures to show food production growth. Napoleon's authority increases, and executions rise. Napoleon sells timber to Frederick, who uses fake banknotes, leading to his death sentence. Frederick and men attack Animal Farm, but the animals repel them after the windmill is destroyed. Napoleon bans alcohol temporarily after a drunken incident. The chapter ends with Muriel noticing changes to the Fifth Commandment.

Quotes

My thoughts:
I believe that they changed commandments to manipulate animals into obeying napoleon’s wishes, squealer than shouted out that the commandments have always been like that to make the other animals think that their memory is failing them which would result in them being uncertain about how things were in the past when Snowball was also in charge

Raised question: Fredrick’s trickery with the fake banknotes leading to another war with the humans.

One of Orwell's finest works, it is a political fable based on the events of Russia's Bolshevik revolution and the betrayal of the cause by Joseph Stalin. The book concerns a group of barnyard animals who overthrow and chase off their exploitative human masters and set up an egalitarian society of their own.
