(50 PTS) What does the fox represent, and how is it used within the poem?

Dovator [93]3 years ago

I spent a long time staring at this and even went as far as to look it up online to confirm my thoughts (to which I found nothing). So keep in mind this is a matter of opinion as are most thoughts on what things may represent.

When I read this, I believe that the fox is representing life and death (hence twice we've seen the fox). The poem is using the fox to represent life by saying it is a flash of red, leaping through the weeds and then it just ends. All thoughts cease once the fox is gone. The fox is fearing because people are afraid of death.

That's just my analysis of what is happening.

Answer and Explanation:

A possible explanation as to why animals are used in the story instead of humans is because animals are less complex than humans. In "Animal Farm", the characters do represent real humans: Lenin, Stalin, the Russian people. However, <u>their traits and actions are simplified, which makes it easier for readers to grasp what the author is trying to convey.</u> For instance, the Soviet leaders are represented by the pigs which, in the story, are the only animals intelligent enough to know anything about leading and managing. Precisely because they are more intelligent and have access to power, the pigs begin to act as dictators. On the other hand, most of the other animals are incapable or learning anything or understanding the situation. That is to show how the Russian people were kept in the dark concerning reality, and how easy it was to mistreat them precisely because they did not possess the knowledge or means to fight back.
