What does Boxer’s death represent? Boxer’s death represents the exploitation of the working classes as well as the death of the idealism that led to the establishment of Animal Farm. Before his death, Boxer is Napoleon’s most loyal supporter, abusing his body in service to the farm and the windmill.

What is the best definition of allegory? a story in which the characters and events symbolize human truths. Which detail from the passage best supports the idea that Mr. Jones is a reckless farmer?

Napoleon betrays Boxer by denying him the right to retire and tricks him into believing that he is going to be treated for the injury he has sustained. Not only does Napoleon lie but he also betrays the promise which Boxer had been working toward, the right to which he fully deserved.

He launches two waves at the intruders and then instructs the animals to retreat, luring the men deep into the farm as a trap. During the battle, Snowball is injured by some pellets from Jones’s gun, and a sheep is killed.

What was Snowball’s strategy to win the battle? Skirmishing to disorient the human beings, then luring them into the barn where they could ambush the invaders. How did Snowball know what to do? He read a book about military tactics and a book by Roman general and emperor Julius Caesar.

In Minimus’ poem, one sees the extent to which the revolutionary tenets have been betrayed. Napoleon is at the center of the farm’s being. The poem makes it clear that there is no other path on the farm than what Napoleon offers.

Snowball and Napoleon encourage the spread of Animalism by sending “out flights of pigeons whose instructions were to mingle with the animals on neighboring farms” (Orwell, 54). They were basically trying to spread lies so that the animals would not want to rebel.
