Conflict
There are several conflicts within the novel. Here is a break down of the most important ones:
External Conflicts:
2. Snowball vs. Napoleon
3. Animals vs. Pigs
4. Animals vs. Humans
Internal Conflicts: Farm Animals vs. Self The animals at times battle against their morals and loyalty to the pigs. When Clover sees the pigs breaking the rules just to find out the rule has been changed, she questions it, wondering if that has truly been there all along. Also, when Napoleon executes the "disloyal" animals, all of them clearly remember the Seven Commandments stating not to kill another animal. Despite Squealer telling them something different, the animals still have a moment of disbelief. |
