Choose one of the following questions and answer it:
1. What are the differences between the characters Frederick
and Pilkington and between the farms they run?
2. What do you think Orwell was satirising(making fun of) when
he described how the animals celebrated their victory?

2. The animals' victory in the Battle of the Cowshed and the
next change of the farm's name to “animal farm” are an
allegorical representation of the Bolshevik army's victory over
the “white army” and the next foundation of the Soviet Union. I
think this fact is just a little sample of the several
references of the book to the Russia society’s condition of the
time and its respective critic to it, something that makes it
valuable.

1) First, the Pilkington's farm was named Foxwood, was a large,
neglected, old-fashioned farm, much overgrown by woodland, with
all its pastures worn out and its hedges in a disgraceful
condition. Its owner, Mr. Pilkington, was an easy-going
gentleman farmer who spent most of his time in fishing or
hunting according to the season. The other farm, which was
called Pinchfield, was smaller and better kept. Its owner was a
Mr. Frederick, a tough, shrewd man, perpetually involved in
lawsuits and with a name for driving hard bargains. In summary
Pilkington's farm, Foxwood, is in a "disgraceful condition" and
that Frederick is "perpetually involved in lawsuits" and has a
"name for driving hard bargains." . In this chapter, although
the two neighboring farmers sympathize with Jones "in
principle," I think that each is "secretly wondering whether he
could somehow turn Jones' misfortune to his own advantage." In
direct contrast to the principles of Animalism, the humans live
by a credo of self-interest and desire for material gain. It was
an interesting chapter ;D

I think that Battle of the Cowshed represent at the Bolsheviks
when they won the Russian Civil War and founded the Soviet Union
in December 1922, but of one form very allegorical in other
words It refers to a fiction representing else like to Animals
farm, also George Orwell show this book as a critical of the
russian society and the Soviet Union because he was in disagree
with this. ;) :D

2) I think that the animal's victory of the Battle of the
Cowshed is a satire of the situation of the two different
existing parties in his epoch as Capitalism and Comunism. I
think that because he was a political critic and he wasn't agree
with some kind of governments and, for this reason he portrayed
the victory's situation of Russia in the Russian Civil War as
the victory of the animals. :)

2.- The author, through the Battle of the Cowshed represents to
the Russian war and the animals symbolize the Bolcheviques, who
won in that battle. They celebrated their triumph raising the
flag, whose color green represents the fields of England and the
hoof and horn, the future Republic of the animals. This hoisting
takes a value of triumph by the animals, because that date would
be commemorated in subsequent years.

2) the battle of the animals represent a part of the history of
russia, in where two parties had ideas opposites, and are the
communism and the capitalism, also the change of name of the
farm to the "Animal Farm" is an allegorical representation of
the victory of the army on the "White Army" of the Soviet
Union. In my opinion Orwell Russia criticizes society russia
through your book showing you from another perspective and
drawing on farm animals. because he was in disagree with this.
:D :D :D

2. In my opinion the battle of the barn was half that Orwell had
to represent the Russian conflict, where animals representatives
of the Bolsheviks, win the battle. I think Orwell criticizes
Russian society and Soviet socialism expressed in the stage of
Stalin, using a satirical fable, which is easy to understand for
everyone.

2.- I think Orwell was satirising the Battle of the Cowshed whit
the Bolshevik Revolution in Rusia. This event in Rusia give the
foundation of the Soviet Union, satirised in the book such as
the Animal Farm and his change of name.
