So what it means by "two farther" is that he is between two adults that are treating him like his son, his teacher having strict teachings and have his father do the homework instead, the author made multiple meanings because he wants his readers interpretation guide the story instead of his words, the priest I'm guessing on but helps him with his problem with the teacher and his farther since he's getting abused in the story.

How does the introduction of Minimus the poet support the author's purpose?
lara [203]

Answer: Here is the poem.

They had just finished singing it for the third time when Squealer, attended by two dogs, approached them with the air of having something important to say. He announced that, by a special decree of Comrade Napoleon, "Beasts of England" had been abolished. From now onwards it was forbidden to sing it. The animals were taken aback. "Why?" cried Muriel. "It's no longer needed, comrade," said Squealer stiffly. "'Beasts of England' was the song of the Rebellion. But the Rebellion is now completed. The execution of the traitors this afternoon was the final act. The enemy both external and internal has been defeated. In 'Beasts of England' we expressed our longing for a better society in days to come. But that society has now been established. Clearly this song has no longer any purpose." Frightened though they were, some of the animals might possibly have protested, but at this moment the sheep set up their usual bleating of "Four legs good, two legs bad," which went on for several minutes and put an end to the discussion. So "Beasts of England" was heard no more. In its place Minimus, the poet, had composed another song which began: Animal Farm, Animal Farm, Never through me shalt thou come to harm! and this was sung every Sunday morning after the hoisting of the flag. But somehow neither the words nor the tune ever seemed to the animals to come up to "Beasts of England

Minimus represents the producers of state-approved songs and slogans in Stalin's era.

Explanation:

The exercept was from "Animal farm"was an Utopian satire written by George Orwell and it was published in 1945.

The satire illustrate illustrate the way Stalinism had betrayed the ideals of the socialist revolution in the Soviet Union. The poet Minimus introduces a new song that is sung on Sunday mornings

forsale [732]

Essay about your limitations in possibilities as a unique human person?
stepladder [879]

Answer:

I’m very selfish. I don’t see it as that big of a problem, but sometimes I can annoy people by putting myself first. However, it has served me well.

I’m lazy. If I don’t feel like doing it, I won’t, unless it will impact me negatively. I’m willing to get up at 6 am to work every day because it benefits me. If it didn’t, I’d never do it. I like to see how little I can get away with until something starts to fail - one might say I like to know where the boundaries are.

I’m very proud. This means that if you try to manipulate me into doing something regardless of how it fits in with what I want, I’m very likely to do the opposite thing. For instance, my dad forced me to learn to ride the bike, so I could get him food from the store. The result? I didn’t touch a bike out of spite for four years. You might think this is bad for me, but you see, by the age of 16, I had never ridden a bike nor felt the need for one. My partner is using a different tactic to get me to get a driver’s license - he wants to drive around Europe, which we can’t do if he is the only driver. It is in my interest to do it because him being happy and satisfied is in my best interest. I care about how he feels. My dad still hasn’t learned the fact that I would sooner keep you from gloating at having taught me something than learn it for my own benefit, especially if I don’t really need to.

I don’t see this as a limitation, but I have a certain disregard for social convention and tradition, while still respecting some aspects of it. For instance, I believe marriage is utterly pointless, because I already am in a loyal and respecting partnered relationship that contains everything apart from a signed document and registration in state archives. I wear skate shoes to formal events because they cost as much as high heels do - by historical standards, your most expensive clothing is your best formal clothing as in that respect, I am wearing formal shoes. I hope you can follow.

I’m very, very, very hard-headed. It is very difficult to convince or persuade me unless you have ample evidence. No evidence, no results. This has lead to multiple arguments with both of my parents who are equally hard-headed..

I’m somewhat gullible if you catch me off guard. It annoys me. I’m a very sincere person and sometimes I don’t think.
