EXPLOITATION IN GEORGE ORWELL’S ANIMAL FARM: A NORMAN FAICLOUGH’S PERSPECTIVE

Not scheduled
20m

Description

This study aims to explore George Orwell’s novella Animal Farm (1945) and examines the theme of exploitation in it. The researchers have applied Norman Fairclough’s 3-Demensional Model and investigated the language of the text qualitatively. They are of the view that Animal Farm's (1945) novella is an allegorical representation of the Russian soviet government (1917-1924), dictatorship and lower working-class exploitation. It is highlighted that some of the characters in Animal Farm (1945) are exploitative such as Mr. Jones (Lenin), Napoleon (Stalin), Squealer (supporter and follower of Stalin), humans and pigs of the Animal Farm, and Zia (Pakistani dictator). Likewise, some characters are exploited by others such as Boxer (lower working class of Russia), and all the animals on Animal Farm. Additionally, Animal Farm (1945) is a universal thematic novella and its themes apply to every society such as Russian and also Pakistani society as well. Furthermore, Orwell’s production of Animal Farm (1945) is a discourse that gives voice to the marginalized lower working class across the globe and is an anti-discourse to totalitarianism and capitalism.
