  27. DISCUSSION QUESTION 1. • Discuss Boxer. What role does he play on the farm? • Why does Napoleon seem to feel threatened by him? • In what ways might one view the betrayal of Boxer as an alternative climax of the novel (if we consider Napoleon’s banishment of Snowball as the true climax)?

  28. DISCUSSION QUESTION 2. • Paying particular attention to the character of Squealer, how is language used as an instrument of social control? • How do the pigs rewrite history?

  29. DISCUSSION QUESTION 3. • Do you think Animal Farm’s message would come across effectively to someone who knows nothing about Soviet history or the conflict between Stalin and Trotsky? • What might such a reader make of the story?

  30. DISCUSSION QUESTION 4. • Of all of the characters in Animal Farm, are there any who seem to represent the point of view of the author? • Which of the animals or people do you think come(s) closest to achieving Orwell’s perspective on Animal Farm?
