I thought I should have stepped to help out but pigs were given first priority to and had more power than anyone in the farm, thus I decided not to. As days passed, Napoleon and Snowball took over, and started to run the farm. Napoleon was quite different from the whole group of animals, personally I did not like him or trust ‘Animal Farm’ in his hands. Napoleon’s speeches were short and to the point, which many of us including me, who never followed what he said. Us, animals were blindfolded by him and never realized he took advantage of the lack of knowledge we had just for the his benefit now and later in the future as well.
This demonstrated that Boo had no connections to anyone outside his house since he was not allowed to have one which made misery rain on him. Lastly Boo was always discriminated and never appreciated for anything he had done to serve society. As the people of Maycomb always on thought of Boo being a bad person, he was shown evidently that he served society as a secret hero such as when he had saved the children from Bob Ewell; “Mr. Ewell was tryin’ to squeeze me to death . .
His mothers parental monitoring was too much, she never let Ed do anything and always kept him hidden. The influence of his brother putting down there mother, who Ed worshipped was another factor in his downfall. Skinner’s Theory of Behavior: Gein never received any positive reinforcement Antisocial personality disorder (APD): This is a disorder Ed had because he failed to conform to the norms of society. Holmes and De Burger (1998): Have a theory that serial killers fall into 4 groups; Eddie falls into the hedonistic type because he strived for pleasure in playing with the bodies of his victims. Coercion Developmental Theory: Gerald Patterson (1982, 1986) states that parenting monitoring can cause early onset delinquency.
Ralph had tried to have a list of names, but Jack didn’t even bother. Dictatorships do not care about anyone’s personal welfare. Ralph had also tried to keep a fire going for smoke so they could be saved, showing that he cared for the welfare of the entire group. Jack only cared about the fire for roasting the pigs. Dictatorship is an uncivilized government, and so is ineffective for each individual’s personal
Finally on the one hand Antigone could be described by the Greek word “mythos” that means fantasy, she lives in her own world and believes in “phusis”, everything that is natural (including of course burying her dead brother); On the other hand, Creon lives for the “logos”, the reason, what is right. He does not want to do anything outside the law because he is the one to install and impose the laws. Creon could remind us of a Sophoclean hero; nevertheless it is not as blatant as Antigone. He is also a very headstrong character, the fact that he is ready to kill his own niece proves his yearn and thirst for the applications of laws. The difference between both of them is that they aspire to two very different aspects of life; She wants respect and he wants power, we see that those two principles do not always agree with each other.
Individualism is a key aspect in both novels, most prevalently in the protagonist of each story. The presence of it maintains a positive aura in the story, and its gradual diminishment drains the aura out eventually, leaving the feeling of a grim ending. This is done by the relevant authorities in both novels – Jack’s “tribe” from Lord of the Flies and “the Party” from 1984 – who have many similarities. They are both totalitarian (since in Lord of the Flies becoming a “savage” in the tribe changes relevant individual aspects), they both gain power from collectivism and they both use violence to enforce their systems. Consequently the very nature of both authorities demands collective conformity, and this is the driving force for the abolishment of individualism.
They use them to govern their life and every action. Lady Macbeth did not care about the consequences, she did not care about the fact that murder is wrong, or immoral. She cared about her thirst and needed it to be quenched. As for Macbeth, he uses his ambitious nature to govern his whole life. This was obviously his main motive for all the murders and to justify all of his actions he uses the throne.
He has a very old dog, and the boys at the farm want to shoot it. Candy thinks that just because someone is old doesn’t mean they’re useless, and would they shoot him too? They always think he’s unable to do things because he’s old, even though he can do it. Throughout the novel, he is often by himself, away from others, because he is discriminated against by the others. As the end of the novel approaches, discrimination leads towards Lennie’s harsh
This results in dictatorships, with leaders like Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler. They (and others) get ideas in their heads how things should be, and their self-motivation and their own ideas are where they draw their inspiration from when they make decisions. In the novella Animal Farm, Napoleon starts out small, being on the opposing side of all arguments, staying behind and fulfilling his own desires, for example when he drinks the milk that was for all the animals. He takes advantage of all the animals. He gets bigger ideas about how things should be, and eventually goes against all the principles that the animals had all agreed upon at the beginning of the rebellion.
Yet it’s Napoleon, the more treacherous and cunning of the two pigs, that manages to get his way. There is a sense of foreboding (anxiety) even in his initial description which brings out a hint of violence and manipulation skills. This shows us that from the very beginning of the novella Napoleon emerges as an utterly corrupt opportunist. Although he is always present at the meetings, Napoleon never makes a single contribution to the revolution- not to the formation of its ideology, not to the bloody struggle that it necessitates (requires), not to the new society’s initial attempts to establish itself. Never does he show an interest in Animal Farm itself, but only the strength of his power over it.
