Answer:

He plans to distract the Cyclops while his men escape through the entrance.

Explanation:

Odysseus wants to liberate his men who have been trapped by the cyclops Polyphemus. However, he needs to convince the cyclops to do so, as he is the only one who is strong enough to move the stone that covers the entrance. Odysseus devises a plan, which includes getting the cyclops drunk with wine. When the cyclops is intoxicated, Odysseus proceeds to blind him. They end up escaping by clinging to the bellies of the sheep the monster holds as they go out to graze.

Andreyy89

Answer:

Animal Farm, A novella by George Orwell, tells the tale of the downtrodden animals of Manor Farm, who after much oppression from their master, take over the farm for themselves. In the beginning, it seems like the start of a life of freedom and plenty, but ruthless and cunning elite emerges and begins to take control of the farm. The animals find themselves ensnared once again as one form of tyranny gradually replaces the other. The novella is a critique of revolutionary Russia and idealism betrayed by power and corruption. Orwell uses allegory between Animal Farm and the Soviet Union to highlight the corruption of socialist ideals in the soviet union, the power of language and propaganda, and the dangers of a naive working class.

One of the main themes in the novella is how easily pure ideals can become corrupted, as they did in the Soviet Union. The novel opens with Old Major, a character who represents Karl Marx, telling the animals on the farm of his Orwell highlights how powerful the use of language and propaganda can be when used to control society.
